Jennifer Lopez has announced the cancellation of her summer tour, with the diva revealing she’s devastated by the impact it will have on her dozens of fans.
In an official statement posted on her website on Friday (May 31), the former actress said she was “saddened” to have to cancel her planned hike.
“I am so sad and frustrated that I have let you down,” she wrote. “Please know that I wouldn’t do it if I didn’t feel it was absolutely necessary.”
She continued: “I promise I will make it up to you and we will be together again. I love you all so much. Until next time…”
A statement released by Live Nation explained that Lopez “is taking time to be with her children, family and close friends.”
“Sources close to Lopez” insisted to Variety that the tour was not canceled due to low ticket sales.
Despite these protests, the tour has been plagued by problems since its launch.
Last month, Lopez rebranded her “This Is Me…Now” tour as a “Greatest Hits” concert series after low ticket sales on the tour.
On April 3, NME reported that the official name of the hike had been changed to “This Is Me…” Greatest Hits.
Variety also revealed that the singer and actress canceled seven performance dates at the time, affecting ticket holders in Cleveland, Nashville, Raleigh, Atlanta, Tampa, New Orleans and Houston.
A notice to those hoping to attend the shows in the aforementioned cities simply read: “Unfortunately, event organizers have had to cancel your event. No action is required to receive a refund.”
Jennifer Lopez’s proposed Vegas residency is in jeopardy after reports of disappointing tour ticket sales just days before the tour is canceled entirely.
Lopez was reportedly offered $90 million to grace the Las Vegas Strip with a 90-show residency at the MGM Grand next year, but the deal may will be revoked.
“MGM saw she wasn’t doing well on the road. They were very nervous,” a source told the outlet. “It’s rare to have a bad trip and end up in Vegas.”
Sources familiar with the matter also said Lopez went on fewer dates in Vegas and was paid less. Representatives for the MGM Grand and Lopez did not respond to requests for comment.
