New York — Jennifer Lopez has made the difficult decision to cancel her highly anticipated 2024 North American tour. The international superstar’s representatives from Live Nation have officially confirmed the unfortunate news, citing Lopez’s need for time off to focus on her children, family, and close friends during this time. The tour was set to mark Lopez’s return to the stage after a five-year hiatus, in support of her latest solo album, “This Is Me…. Now,” and its accompanying film.
Originally scheduled to kick off in Orlando, Florida, on June 26 and conclude in Houston on August 31, the tour’s cancellation comes as a disappointment to fans around the country. However, Live Nation has assured ticket holders who purchased through Ticketmaster that they will receive automatic refunds. In a heartfelt message to her supporters on her OntheJLo website and newsletter, Lopez expressed her deep sadness at having to let them down, emphasizing that the decision was made out of necessity.
“This Is Me…. Now,” released earlier this year, marks Lopez’s triumphant return to the music scene two decades after the success of her hit album, “This Is Me…. Then.” In an interview with the Associated Press, Lopez described the new album as a “miracle” and a “second chance,” highlighting her desire to capture the essence of this moment in time much like her previous album did.
Despite the disappointment surrounding the tour’s cancellation, Lopez reassured fans that she intends to make it up to them and looks forward to reuniting with them soon. Her message of gratitude and love for her supporters resonates deeply, promising a brighter future ahead for her loyal fanbase. As Lopez takes this time to focus on her loved ones, fans eagerly anticipate what the future holds for the iconic performer and her music career.
