Quote

Later in 2004, six months after recording "1 Thing", Amerie and Harrison leaked it to US radio stations in an attempt to get it released officially.[1][4] The response from DJs and listeners was positive, and it consequently received airplay across the country. Columbia Records attempted to suppress the song because it was an unofficial release, and because Jennifer Lopez (another artist on the label) had expressed interest in recording the song for her own album, Rebirth.[4] Radio stations refused to retract the song from their playlists, and Columbia eventually began promoting "1 Thing" as a single, making it a last-minute addition to the Hitch soundtrack.[1] Lopez settled on another Harrison-produced, funk-infused track, the Usher outtake "Get Right".[4]

Nooooo, Not J.Lo trying to steal "1 Thing"  She works hard but why is she so clueless with her music.

I don't hear it beside the lyrics (3 words) 

They don't even sound similar

Also, everybody knows she has limited involvement when it comes to music.  

She's also never had to settle anything out of court with regards to her music

What's the point in lying?

Amerie recorded the song but the label didn't see any potential for it becoming a hit , so her team decided to leak it on their own after a six month delay. 

It was a Demo, not an official release but the response was positive online, so it got passed around the label. 

Though, since her version was already gaining popularity, they decided to let her keep it.

The way your link says the exact same thing as the quote I posted above.

After having recorded the song and failing to convince her label of its potential for six months, Amerie leaked the song late last year. DJs and listeners immediately jumped on the song as it spread from coast to coast no matter how much Columbia Records tried to suppress it, first because it wasn’t an official release, and then because labelmate Jennifer Lopez wanted the song for herself. By that point, the Amerie version had taken on a life of its own, and J.Lo had to settle for one of Harrison’s leftovers, previously an Usher outtake, for her single “Get Right.”

 

I don't hear any similarities tbh

 That's not "stealing a song". Do you know how labels work?

Your source literally says Miss Lopez herself was trying to snatch it until Amerie rushed a leak so the public could hear her version.
