Victoria Beckham went out of her way to be photographed with Jennifer Lopez during New York Spring Fashion Week 2009 earlier this month because she desperately wants to irk on-again/off-again pal Katie Holmes, a new tabloid scoop claims.

Posh has decided to befriend Jenn in a bid to make Katie jealous.

“Posh knows Katie is close with JLo.”
