Jennifer Lopez is feeling positive on her upcoming tour despite reports on her alarmingly low ticket sales.

Over the last few weeks, reports that her latest album was and upcoming tour will be "flops" dominated, given the unexpected underwhelming support from the public.

Still, Lopez is not allowing these to affect her and expressed her excitement about launching her "small tour" soon.

In her appearance on Good Morning America's May 6 episode, Lopez opened up about her This Is Me... Now the Tour and her future movie projects. Her hectic schedule even led co-host Lara Spencer to joke about the songstress "not sleeping" at all.

"I wish I could have had the summer off. But it's a small tour. It's like 28 shows, I'm excited about it," she said of her tour. "I'm excited. I haven't been out for years, I think since 2019. Since before the pandemic. So I'm excited to see the fans and interact with the people again. It's always a good time."

Lopez initially announced that over 30 cities across North America will be part of her return to the stage. The original schedule listed June 26 at Kia Center as her first stop, while Toyota Center in Houston, Tex., on August 31 as her last show.

However, fans who bought tickets for seven shows - Cleveland, Nashville, Raleigh, Atlanta, Tampa, New Orleans and Houston, were notified by Ticketmaster regarding the dates' cancelations.

The page also left the message, "Unfortunately, the Event Organizer has had to cancel your event. No action is required to obtain a refund."

According to EW, the sudden cancelations were due to a "logistical issue through the promoter." However, other media outlets claimed Lopez failed to sell enough tickets in the aforesaid cities to push through her shows.

Aside from enjoying the nights with her fans, Lopez will also like her twins, Max and Emme, to accompany her throughout the trek.

Per the matriarch, they have been negotiating that set-up.

"I'm out for like two months - from like June to August. I was like, 'You have to come for the whole month of July," said Lopez. "You can go to camp and do whatever you want with your friends in June, then at the end of August, right before you start school, you can go back and hang out with your friends again. But you have to come with mommy for a little while.'"

Lopez added it might be the last time she could get to do something like that with them as her twins are already 16.

She did not disclose whether her husband, Ben Affleck, will also be tagging along.
