This Is Me... Live[1] (previously known as This Is Me... Now: The Tour) is a cancelled tour that was planned to be the fifth concert tour by American actress and singer Jennifer Lopez. It would have supported her ninth studio album, This Is Me... Now (2024).[2] Comprising 30 shows, the tour would have visited Canada and the United States, beginning on June 26, 2024, in Orlando and ending on August 17, 2024, in New York City.

Background

[edit]

The 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

[edit]

On 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]
