We love it when a gossipist just gives it to us straight without feeling the need to wind the story (usually, actually, just a punchline) around lengthy phrasing. This website gets away with it because, quite frankly, we’d be straight ripping off other columns otherwise.

So Fox 411’s Roger Friedman gets a token of our thanks for wrapping up Jennifer Lopez’s An Unfinished Life premiere behavior so nicely. And since it’s Fashion Week, that means not one but two 8-balls.

What readers need to know right away is that she had a personal team of five gigantic security guys who accompanied her to last night’s premiere of “An Unfinished Life.” They did not take their eyes off of her.

Also: She, superstar husband Marc Anthony, her mother and sisters dined in a private room at Megu after the screening.

Though Roger could’ve taken an even easier route: “J. Lo remains a diva.” Not quite the flair as the above, but it would’ve saved us a full minute we could’ve devoted to watching CNN blog reporter Jacki Schechner touch video screens.

But oddly, Roger makes no mention of the fact that, uh, J. Lo and hubby Marc didn’t even walk the red carpet, thanks to PETA protestors. That’s why she was apologizing (to the press) on David Letterman.
