Many people noticed their excellent moves and smiled and cheered as Lindsay dipped and swirled Angelina around but at one point Angelina slipped on a wet spot on the dance floor and accidently bumped into her former girlfriend and fiancé Jennifer Aniston who was dancing with Bruno Marza mutual friend of Lindsay. Bruno After getting bumped by Angelina, Jennifer y said to Lindsay directly, "Tell yourclumsy girl-friend to be careful and on hearing this Angelina told Lindsay who was pulling Angelina back up that it was clearly an accident and Jennifer was being a bitch and just jealous of them being together and then suddenly a skuffle broke out.
