Background
editThe tour was announced on February 15, 2024, as the This Is Me... Now: The Tour, but was re-branded to a greatest hits tour in April. Variety posited that this was due to low ticket sales,[3] while Entertainment Weekly reported that Lopez "made no changes to the planned setlist or the content of the show itself, and that the tour was always intended to be a celebration of Lopez's career", rather than just highlighting her recent album and accompanying film.[4] Rehearsals began in May 2024 following the completion of principal photography on Lopez's scenes for the upcoming film adaptation of the stage musical version of Kiss of the Spider Woman.[5]
Cancellation
editOn May 31, 2024, Lopez announced that the tour was cancelled as she was going to spend more time with her family.[6]
According to a statement released by the singer:
"I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel that it was absolutely necessary," Lopez 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..."[7]
