As reported by AOL Music, Jennifer Lopez has found herself in the wrong place at the wrong time. The entertainer is currently serving as the celebrity face of Fiat, but little did she know she would soon come under some serious fire for endorsing the Italian car company.

Yesterday (Jan. 12), non-profit advocacy group United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) publicly challenged Lopez and her ties to Fiat -- a company the organization alleges has direct ties to Iran's illegal nuclear missile program.

The president for UANI addressed the following statement to Lopez, "By endorsing Fiat, you are serving as a spokesperson for a company that freely does business with a regime that is developing an illegal nuclear weapons program, financing and sponsoring terrorist groups including al-Qaeda, has killed American and NATO soldiers and is recognized as one of the world's leading human rights violators."
