Medina tells the magazine Lopez has a habit of letting “obsessive guys pursue her.”

"The thing that I always sort of wished is that she would give herself time to just naturally meet someone, instead of having obsessive guys pursue her," he says. "The ease with which that obsession becomes a relationship I think sometimes works against her ability to have a real meaningful relationship."

SHERRI SHEPHERD ACCUSED OF CHEATING ON 'DANCING': While most 'Dancing With the Stars' celebrity partners begin rehearsals the day their participation on the show is announced, Radar Online claims "The View’s" SHERRI SHEPHERD  has an unfair advantage. Sherri, they claim, has been working with partner Maksim since December. “Sherri was spotted in early December going into the Soho Studio and Maks was there too,” claims a witness. “She had her dance shoes with her and was dressed in workout gear. I saw them dancing together."

The insider says Sherri was spotted with Maks “multiple times,” before the announcements were made and accuses Sherri of “trying to get a leg up on the other dancers.”

SHERRI SHEPHERD IN DENIAL: SHERRI used her role on "The View" yesterday to deny the Radar Online story, pointing out that, quote,"It was incorrectly reported that Maks was my dance partner. He's not. His brother Val is my partner," she clarified. "We have never, I say never, danced together." She did admit, though, to taking dance lessons at Maks' Soho, New York dance studio before she was cast.

"I took a handful of classes at Maks' studio, which I'm glad I did, because it showed me if I was up for this challenge of 'Dancing With the Stars' ... But this started long before I started any negotiations with 'Dancing With the Stars.'" Sorry Sherri. Splitting hairs. Still cheating.
