"This Is Me… Live: The Greatest Hits Tour" was set to be Lopez's first North American arena tour in five years, and was designed to celebrate her extensive songbook. It was initially planned to support her ninth studio album, "This Is Me... Now”.

Lopez had described the new album as a “miracle” and a “second chance,” expressing her desire to capture this moment in time just as the previous album had captured another.

The tour cancellation has sparked various rumors and speculations, including reports of poor ticket sales and rumored marital issues between Lopez and her husband, Ben Affleck. However, the official reason remains her need to prioritize family and close relationships during this time.
