According to Variety, the cancellation notice reads, “Unfortunately, the Event Organizer has had to cancel your event. No action is required to obtain a refund.” No further explanation was given, but People reports that the cancellations were due to a logistical issue through the tour’s promoter.

Does the Tour Have Low Ticket Sales?
On Thursday, Variety pointed out that a large number of tickets for Lopez’s tour appeared to still be unsold, with the available areas of the seating chart appearing much larger than the unavailable areas on most of the tour dates.
The album Lopez is promoting with the tour, This Is Me… Now, only debuted at No. 38 on the Billboard 200 chart. The project is a follow-up to the singer’s 2002 album This Is Me… Then. The new album was accompanied by an Amazon movie of the same name.
Lopez also released a documentary titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told, which chronicles her journey to create the album and movie. The entire project was self-financed by Lopez and reportedly cost $20 million.
