EXCLUSIVE Jennifer Lopez's international tour suffers multiple setbacks as date changes cause fury among fans
The 55-year-old singer announced her international tour, Up All Night, at the beginning of April, revealing she'll be performing over the summer.
'To all my international JLovers, I'll be doing a few select show dates over the summer. I can't wait to get back out there to see all of you. It's been too long. It's gonna be an amazing summer,' she informed her fans, while noting that they should 'stay tuned' for updates via her website.
Performing 19 shows in 11 different countries, Lopez will be taking the stage at various venues... from five-star hotels to music festivals and venues that hold less than 10,000 to stadiums that hold 20,000 people.
But selling tickets, apparently, isn't the problem for the pop star since many venues have already sold thousands of tickets. It's other chaos that has been happening behind-the-scenes that have caused some fans to become furious, Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.
In one instance, Lopez was expected to perform at the luxe five-star hotel, Rixos Radamis, in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, on July 4th, but 'per her request,' the date has been postponed to July 30.
The 55-year-old has made many changes to her international tour that has caused chaos behind-the-scenes and led fans to become furious (pictured at the 2025 AMAs)
The 'most breathtaking aqua paradise' hotel informed followers on social media on June 28 - just six days before she was expected to be there, that, 'The Jennifer Lopez concert has been rescheduled to July 30 as per the artist request.'
This caused outrage from thousands of fans who booked rooms for the 4th of July weekend just to see her.
One person responded to the hotel's postponement announcement on Facebook, 'What about people who paid a lot of money to stay in your hotel to see Jennifer Lopez next week?'
Other fans, who voiced their outrage in Arabic on Instagram, wrote (via translation), 'From my point of view, it's the best of unprofessional attitude to your fans. Why advertise your concert in a few months and throw thousands of people away before the flight?'
Another fan said, 'She has changed the poster four times already. It's not that serious anymore. The scam of the century!'
Someone else commented, 'That's not fair. We all bought the [rooms] due to this performance, and now it is postponed. Very disappointed (crying emoji).'
Fans are demanding that their plane tickets are also refunded and are now skeptical if she'll even show up to Sharm El Sheikh, since the day prior, she has a performance in the United Arab Emirates. They believe it could be 'cancelled' last minute.
Guests who stay at the all-inclusive hotel are able to attend the concert for free, however, rates are expensive at $700-$2,000 per night.
This isn't the only time her tour dates have changed. Daily Mail has learned that Lopez was expected to perform at Regnum Carya Golf & Spa Resort in Antalya, Turkey, on August 5. But, this date was moved up to July 23.
The August 5 date is now another city in Turkey - at Festival Park Yenikapi in Istanbul.
The promoter wrote, 'The event, which was scheduled for August 5, has been [changed] to July 23. We apologize for any inconvenience, previously purchased tickets remain valid.'
Guests who stay at the five-star hotel, where rates are around $1,300 per night, need to make a reservation for a minimum of four nights in order to see her concert for free. However, fans can separately purchase tickets to her show online.
A source told Daily Mail that Istanbul was part of the additional tour dates that have been recently added along with Tashkent, Uzbekistan on August 7 and Almaty, Kazakhstan on August 10.
The source added: 'Extra dates have been added to her tour due to high demand. Jennifer will be announcing an additional date in a new city in the coming days.'
Another tour setback took place when there was a change in venue for her July 11 date in Spain - just two weeks before the concert.
The Spanish website, Sur in English, reported last month that her concert in Malaga had 'undergone a sudden change of venue.'
She turned heads as she arrived to rehearsals in a skintight low-cut pink catsuit
Instead of performing at Malaga's Estadio de Atletismo, Lopez will be performing at the Marenostrum stage in Fuengirola, which is a smaller venue. Rather than allowing a maximum of 27,500 attendees, per the site, Marenostrum allows 18,500 fans.
The promoter cited 'logistical reasons' behind the decision and apologized for the 'inconvenience' and asked for 'understanding'.
Although already-purchased tickets will remain valid, there was a price change for anyone buying tickets to the new stadium due to the difference in seating capacity.
A source told Daily Mail that despite these changes, ticket sales 'have been phenomenal' and 'some stadiums have even sold out.'
They continued, 'The tour promoter is very happy with how everything is going. The tour is in great shape and everyone is excited for it to kick off.'
Fans can purchase tickets to her international tour on various websites, but if they want a photo with the Latin singer herself, they will need to pay thousands.
An Albanian news website, Tirana Post, reports fans who attend her July 21 concert at the Lucca Summer Festival in Italy can purchase a VIP upgrade (which does not include entry to the concert) to participate in the meet and greet for '1,400 euros,' which comes to $1,650 USD.
What's even more expensive is purchasing the meet and greet tickets for her July 10 and July 11 tour dates in Cadiz and Fuengirola, Spain, respectively, for '1,700 euros,' which comes to $2,004 USD - plus whatever ticket for entry into the venue - according to Spanish News Today.
Daily Mail has reached out to Jennifer Lopez's rep for comment.
As seen in photos obtained by Daily Mail, JLo has been hard at work rehearsing for her upcoming tour. It kicks off at Parque Tafisa in Pontevedra, Spain, on July 8 and wraps on August 10 at Central Stadium in Almaty, Kazakhstan - although a surprise date is expected to be announced imminently.
Lopez's international tour - followed by her Las Vegas residency, which kicks off in December - comes over a year after she canceled her 2024 summer US tour, 'This is Me...Live,' which was scheduled to run June to August.
Lopez had announced at the time via a statement on her 'OntheJLo' website that she had decided to take some 'time off to be with her children, family and close friends.'
The songstress shares 17-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
She later said that taking time off was 'the best thing' she's ever done.
split just a month prior to making the cancelation announcement.

Lily Allen: I can't remember how many abortions I had
Lily Allen has said she 'can't remember' how many abortions she has had over the years. The British singer, who has two children, described her reproductive system as a 'complete disaster area' in the past. Speaking on an episode of her podcast Miss Me?, Allen, 40, whose hits include Smile, LDN and The Fear, said: 'I have an IUD [contraceptive coil] now. 'I think I'm on my third, maybe fourth, and I just remember before that it was a complete disaster area. Yeah I'd get pregnant all the time, all the time.' Asked by her co-host Miquita Oliver, 41, whether she had ever terminated a pregnancy, Allen started singing to the tune of Frank Sinatra's My Way, saying: 'Abortions, I've had a few…but then again…I can't remember exactly how many.' 'About four or five' She laughed before adding: 'I can't remember. I think maybe like, I want to say four or five.' Oliver, a television presenter who made her name on Channel 4.s Popworld, said she had also had 'about five' before Allen recalled that she once thought it was 'so romantic' for a man to pay for her abortion. 'I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion, and me thinking it was so romantic,' she admitted, explaining that now she doesn't think 'it's generous or romantic'. Ms Oliver interjected: 'I actually think that is romantic. Do you not think that's romantic?' She told Allen: 'I'm so happy I can say that and you can say it and no one came to shoot us down, no judgment.' Allen has two daughters, Marnie Rose, 12, and Ethel Mary, 13, with her ex-husband Sam Cooper. She split from her second husband David Harbour, an actor who starred in Stranger Things, last December, four years after they married in Las Vegas. She said the stigma surrounding abortions 'irritates' her, adding: 'I've said it before on the record. 'I've seen memes going around sometimes, on Instagram from pro-abortion accounts or whatever, whenever this conversation comes up, and suddenly you start seeing people posting things about extraordinary reasons for having an abortion. 'Like, 'My aunt had a kid that had this disability,' or whatever, 'If she went full term it was going to kill her, so we have to.' It's like, shut up. 'Just, 'I don't want a f---ing baby right now.' 'Don't want a baby' is enough reason.' Glastonbury jibe at US judges Allen, a Brit award winner, previously shared her views on the topic in the wake of the US Supreme Court's decision to overturn the Roe v Wade legislation in 2022 by singing her hit song 'F--k You' on stage at Glastonbury and dedicating the expletive-filled tune to the judges who overturned the ruling. Last month, MPs voted with a majority of 242 to decriminalise seeking an abortion at any stage of gestation for any reason, meaning women will no longer face an investigation or arrest for doing so. Critics claimed it would increase the number of abortions, including dangerous terminations, and would pave the way for sex-selective abortions.

The best new shows coming to Netflix this July, including a Lena Dunham series critics are calling the platform's 'greatest ever romcom'
July is here, which means pub gardens, bare legs and evenings spent drinking vino in the park. But after all that partying and soaking up the sun, what could be better than relaxing on the sofa and sticking on a stellar TV series or film? Thankfully, Netflix has a bumper crop of new, binge-worthy shows to see us through. From a gripping eight-part anthology series exploring the world's weirdest news stories to Lena Dunham 's return to the small screen, here's what we'll be tuning into this month. The Sandman (Release date: 3rd July) Tom Sturridge returns as Dream of the Endless in the second series of this DC comic adaptation, attempting to save himself, his kingdom and the waking world from the epic fallout of his past misdeeds. But the path to forgiveness is full of unexpected twists and turns, and true absolution may cost Dream everything… All the Sharks (Release date: 4th July) Thought they'd come up with every weird concept for a reality show already? Well, you were wrong. All the Sharks is a new competition in which shark experts compete to find and photograph the most sharks, hoping to win a $50,000 prize for their chosen marine charity. Our verdict: barmy but entertaining. Trainwreck: The Real Project X (Release date: 8th July) Remember that crazy film, Project X, about a guy who put a public invite to his house party on Facebook and ended up causing a massive riot? Well, this is the real thing. In 2012, a Dutch teenager 'accidentally' created a public event for her 16th birthday, and, inspired by their love of Project X the film, her pals made it go viral. Despite warnings, police paid little attention – until the party exploded into a full-blown riot. The Real Project X is part of an eight-part anthology series, Trainwreck, which explores eight media-dominating events. Also releasing this July is a documentary about the cult of American Apparel, another about the storming of Area 51 and the one we're most excited for: a deep dive into the doomed reality TV series about moms moonlighting as private investigators. Too Much (Release date: 10th July) After her Emmy-winning smash-hit Girls, Lena Dunham makes a triumphant return to television in Too Much, a 10-episode series about moving to London and falling in love with a Brit. With a star-studded cast featuring the likes of Adwoa Aboah, Andrew Scott, Emily Ratajkowski and Stephen Fry (Hack's Megan Stalter and The White Lotus' Will Sharpe lead), this is sure to be one of Netflix's biggest hits of the year. Apocalypse in the Tropics (Release date: 14th July) The team behind Oscar-nominated doc The Edge of Democracy return with this decade-long journey through the spiritual and political upheaval of Brazil. Director Petra Costa gains extraordinary access to current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, former President Jair Bolsonaro and the nation's magnetic televangelist Silas Malafaia, for a dramatic inside look at the turbulent nation's past, present and future. Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes (Release date: 30th July) One of the greatest manhunts in New York City history comes to life in this gripping three-part series about the race to find the infamous .44-calibre killer. Newly unearthed recordings offer rare insight into his twisted psyche, revealing what was going through his mind as he unleashed a reign of terror in the late 1970s. Fans of true crime will lap this up.
