‘Devastated’ Jennifer Lopez Cancels Million Dollar Tour Amid Ben Affleck Split Rumors, Low Sales

Jennifer Lopez’s summer plans just took an unexpected turn. The superstar abruptly canceled her “This Is Me…Now” tour, leaving fans with more questions than answers. JLo released a brief statement explaining why she is ending the show when everything is planned and tickets are on sale. However, fans believe there is more to the story. Could this be due to the rumors surrounding her relationship with Ben Affleck, or is there something else going on? With rumors of low ticket sales and other factors, JLo is back in the spotlight, but not for the reasons she might have hoped.

Jennifer Lopez cancels her upcoming tour

On May 31, the pop icon dropped a bombshell on fans by personally announcing the cancellation of her This Is Me…Now tour. The 30-city tour was supposed to be a victory lap, but the Jenny from the Block singer took to her OntheJLO newsletter to apologize to her fans and assured she’ll make it up to her in the future.

“My heart is completely aching and I’m devastated that I let you down,” she wrote. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t think it was absolutely necessary. I promise I’ll make it up to you and we’ll all be together again. I love you all so much. Till next time…”

Why is Jennifer Lopez canceling her next tour?

News of his tour cancellation comes just a day after reports surfaced that MGM Grand was feeling “nervous” about its $90 million Las Vegas residency amid low sales. “MGM sees it not performing well on the road. They are very nervous,” an insider told Pagesix.

Now, another source tells ET that the real reason for this decision has something to do with her family. For months, rumors of a breakup between JLo and Ben Affleck have been circulating, with the couple apparently living apart during this difficult time. “Jennifer is taking time to be with her children, family and close friends,” the source said.

Originally titled This Is Me…Now to reflect her rekindled romance with Ben Affleck, the retitled This Is Me… Live was meant to celebrate a triumphant return following her 2019 tour. The tour reportedly grossed over $50 million with sold-out venues at all stages. However, the source stressed that the decision to cancel the tour was not due to poor ticket sales, but rather individual circumstances and wanting to be with his children.
