‘Heartsick’ Jennifer Lopez cancels upcoming summer tour to spend time with family

On Friday, a representative from events promoter Live Nation announced that the tour was canceled, sharing a statement to Billboard that read: “Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.”

They added that those who bought seats via Ticketmaster would receive refunds automatically, while those who went through third-party resale sites would need to contact their points of purchase for more details.

The 54-year-old also told fans about the cancellation in her newsletter, “OnTheJLo.”

“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” it read.

“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.

“I promise I will make it up to you, and we will all be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time.”

Lopez announced the tour in February. It was originally conceived as the “This is Me… Now: The Tour,” seemingly to accompany her 10th studio album and Prime Video movie of the same name.

As Variety noted, by April, the tour had been rebranded to “This Is Me… Live: The Greatest Hits.” The outlet theorized that this was due to low ticket sales and an attempt to entice fans of Lopez’s entire discography rather than her latest material.

However, Entertainment Weekly reported that it understood that Lopez “made no changes to the planned setlist or the content of the show itself and that the tour was always intended to be a celebration of Lopez’s career.”

The cancellation of the tour comes as reporters have begun asking questions about Lopez’s personal life.

Last week, she shut down a question about the status of her marriage to Hollywood star Ben Affleck while promoting her movie “Atlas” in Mexico City.

As seen in a video shared on X by Glamour México y Latinoamérica, she was asked by someone during a question-and-answer session: “Your divorce with Ben Affleck is real? What is the truth?”

Lopez’s costar, Simu Liu, intervened, responding: “OK, we’re not doing that.”

Lopez then added: “You know better than that.”

Lopez and Affleck married in June 2022 after rekindling their romance almost two decades after they broke up and called off their 2003 wedding.

The couple were seen together this week attending Affleck’s daughter Violet’s graduation ceremony, People reported.
