Some fans speculate that Jennifer Lopez may be having financial difficulties following her decision to revamp her concert series.
The singer-dancer has changed her tour title from "This is Me... Now: The Tour" to "This Is Me... Live | The Greatest Hits," shining a spotlight on her overall career and not just her latest album.
J.Lo's upcoming nationwide tour to promote her latest album, This Is Me... Now, is her first after a five-year hiatus. It is set to kick off June 26 in Orlando.
Recent reports from Variety revealed the unfortunate cancellation of seven shows across cities, including Cleveland, Raleigh, Nashville, Atlanta, Tampa, New Orleans, and Houston, attributed to lower-than-expected ticket sales.
According to insider information shared with Billboard, the cancellation of the dates was attributed to logistical challenges, yet additional performances are on the horizon and will be revealed shortly.
Variety anticipates that the rebranding will draw in a larger audience of fans who prefer her earlier music and may not have resonated with This Is Me... Now. In the old tour posters, Jennifer is wearing a weathered, stained tank top against a backdrop of a dramatic explosion, taken from a scene in her accompanying music film. In the updated artwork, she exudes elegance in a luxurious, embellished gown.
A new version of the tour poster featuring the revised tour title has been sighted at the Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, California, and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.
In March, the "Jenny From the Block" hitmaker encountered challenges selling tickets for her tour and received criticism for the pricey ticket rates.
Based on information from Ticketmaster, it was verified that numerous tour locations still have a significant number of seats open, with entire rows and sections remaining unoccupied at times.
Is Jennifer Lopez Broke? Or Just Losing Money?
According to speculations on Reddit, Lopez overhauled the tour to recoup the $20 million she invested in her album, the narrative musical film This Is Me... Now: A Love Story, and the documentary This Is Me: The Greatest Love Story Never Told. Lopez had confirmed this price-point in a lengthy interview with Variety in February.
A user pointed out the distinction between her estimated net worth and her actual financial situation on Reddit.
"I'm not saying she's broke, but I heard she spent $20M of her own money to finance her movie, tour, and album," they claimed.
A second person said, "Her tour sales did very poorly. Seems like she wants to try and make some of that money back. She doesn't even need to put out another album/tour if she has all that money sitting in the bank. If she had money like that, she'd take the L and move on."
Many Reddit users also believe that numerous celebrities create lavish lifestyles that are challenging to sustain, leading them to strive endlessly to uphold them.
"The amount of her own money she used for that movie that everyone seems to hate. yeah, I can see her trying to make a money off of this whole thing," a third said.
In February, Jennifer Lopez's movies were released on Amazon's Prime Video alongside her album, which was released on Valentine's Day.
Upon its debut, the album entered the Billboard 200 album charts at number 38. In her latest production titled This Is Me... Now: A Love Story, notable personalities made surprise appearances, including her partner Ben Affleck, Post Malone, Fat Joe, Jane Fonda, Keke Palmer, and many more.
Per Celebrity Net Worth, J.Lo has a net worth of $400 million.
