Heather Mills McCartney Denies Jennifer Lopez Scuffle  12/20/05

Heather Mills McCartney has rubbished claims she lost her prosthetic leg during a violent scuffle with Jennifer Lopez' security guards in September (05) - she insists it fell off because she was hot.

The wife of Sir Paul McCartney was reportedly engaged in a tussle with Lopez's burly minders as she attempted to deliver a People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) DVD showing creatures being killed for fur to the singer, who uses fur in her clothing range.

It was claimed her leg fell off because she was manhandled - but she is adamant no one touched her.

She says, "There wasn't a scuffle. The media blew it up out of all proportion.

"My leg got hot. It came off because of the heat. No other reason.

"It was sensationalized. But I don't mind. As long as it raised awareness of the plight of animals killed for fur, I don't mind."

Mills McCartney has consistently blasted the Latina singer for her use of fur, including mink false eyelashes, urging fans to boycott the star's music, movies and clothes.
