In February, the On The Floor hitmaker announced that she was heading back on the road on her This Is Me… Now: The Tour.
Two months later in April, it was renamed This Is Me…Live: The Greatest Hits as Variety said it was due to low ticket sales.
Meanwhile, sources told Entertainment Weekly that the pop music star made no changes to the setlist or the concept of the show.
Jen wanted to showcase that the tour was meant as a celebration of her career so far spanning over the last two decades.
On May 31, Live Nation confirmed that the Atlas actress’ tour was no more.
“I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down,” she wrote in a statement on her OntheJLo website.
“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary.
“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,” she concluded.
Another reason she called it quits was to spend more time with her family, close friends, and children: Max and Emme, 16.
WHAT IS THE TRUTH?
However, fans have their theories on the real reason that she canceled her tour – and they think the divorce rumors with Ben, 51, is a PR scheme.
On X, formerly, Twitter, they shared their thoughts.
A fan questioned, What if this whole Ben JLo divorce rumors was just a PR move to cancel the tour.”
“Jlo and Ben divorce rumors were true… but NOW I’m realizing she’d rather pretend her marriage is struggling, leading to the tour cancellation, rather than admit the tour was canned due to poor ticket sales,” a second theorized.
“It’d be wild if this whole JLo Ben breakup thing was just too give her cover to cancel that concert without having to acknowledge the tickets weren’t selling,” a third pointed out.
