Jennifer Lopez Canceled Her Summer Tour, And The Timing Is... Interesting
HuffPost
The news comes amid a flurry of speculation over the state of Lopez’s marriage to actor Ben Affleck.
With speculation over her private life continuing to intensify, Jennifer Lopez has canceled her forthcoming “This Is Me... Live” Tour.
The actor and singer made the announcement Friday on her website, telling fans she was “completely heartsick and devastated” about the decision.
“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” she wrote. “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...”
Representatives for tour promoter Live Nation told Billboard that Lopez “is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends.” People who bought tickets for the now-canceled shows would be eligible for refunds at their point of purchase, they added.
Prior to Friday’s announcement, Lopez had been slated to kick off the “This Is Me... Live” Tour June 26 in Orlando, Florida, before moving on to Miami, San Francisco and other cities. The trek was scheduled to wrap in August with a two-show stint at New York’s Madison Square Garden.
