She said she was “completely devastated and devastated” to have to make this decision. Jennifer Lopez announced to her fans, via a newsletter, that she was canceling her concert tour planned for this summer in the United States, reports TF1. “Jennifer takes time to be with her children, family and close friends,” said a statement from Live Nation in the same email.
The American singer, starring in the film Atlas on Netflix, was to perform around thirty concerts in the United States, starting June 26. The tour, which was to accompany his first album in ten years, seemed destined to turn into a fiasco anyway. Seven dates had already been withdrawn due to poor sales. And to revive the hype, JLo planned to refocus her tour on a best-of of her career, like The Eras Tour by Taylor Swift, who is a hit worldwide.
Divorce in sight?
None of this will happen in the end. The album itself, titled This is me… Now, didn’t make much of an impression when it was released in January. Premonitory? Supposed to celebrate the love story between JLo and her husband Ben Affleck, it rather seems to accompany them towards the breakup. The American press has been reporting on this for several weeks, twenty years after a first stormy breakup.
According to People Magazine, accustomed to unfounded rumors, however, the couple no longer live under the same roof and are preparing to divorce, after a wedding with great fanfare in 2022. “They always want to put the children first. They have always been very family oriented,” a close Source said shortly after the tour cancellation was announced.
JLo’s presence at the graduation of Violet, Ben Affleck’s eldest child, whom he had with Jennifer Garner, goes in this direction. “Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t think it was absolutely necessary. I promise you that I will make it up to you and that we will all be together again,” says JLo in her press release.
