WASHINGTON — Global superstar Jennifer Lopez has canceled her upcoming North American tour less than a month before it was supposed to begin.
"Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends," an announcement posted Friday on JLo's website said.
The tour has been reportedly facing poor ticket sales, according to Variety.
The tour cancelation comes amid ongoing rumors about possible trouble in Lopez's two-year marriage to Ben Affleck. The couple were spotted together Thursday at the high school graduation for one of Affleck's daughters. According to PEOPLE, Affleck and Lopez have been living apart recently. They eloped in Las Vegas in 2022, 20 years after they first were in a relationship spawning the nickname "Bennifer."
"This Is Me...Live" was going to be Lopez's first tour in five years. The 30-plus city tour was initially set to begin June 26 in Orlando, Florida. It was to feature stops across the country including Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, Phoenix, Sacramento, Denver, Indianapolis and Washington, D.C.
Just a month after announcing the tour, the last seven stops were canceled including Cleveland, Nashville, Raleigh, Atlanta, Tampa, New Orleans and Houston.
"I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down," Lopez said in a statement Friday. "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..."
Those who purchased tickets through Ticketmaster will have their orders automatically refunded. According to Lopez's site, those who purchased through resale sites like SeatGeek, StubHub and VividSeats - should reach out to your point purchase for more details.
