Jennifer Lopez is still apologizing to her fans after canceling her “This is Me… Live” tour.
During her Thursday night appearance on the “Graham Norton Show,” the “On the Floor” singer admitted she cried over the tour cancellation.
“I decided to take the summer off and be home with the kids and it was the best thing I think I’ve ever done. It’s not like me to do that and when it comes up, I like to apologize to the fans because I know a lot of them were coming out,” Lopez said on the episode.
The singer then shared a “touching” story about a fan who told her he bought tickets to see her. After telling him “I’m so sorry” for her decision to cancel, the fan told her, “‘Don’t say sorry. We love you,’” she recalled.
“I started crying right away,” Lopez added.
The fan who had the interaction with the pop star also happened to be in the audience for the show’s taping. Upon realizing, Lopez quickly got out of her seat to hug the fan, prompting cheers and applause from the crowd.
“I got in the car and literally cried. Honestly. It’s very hard for me to cancel. I’ve never done that before,” Lopez told the fan.
He then told the “Let’s Get Loud” singer, “We understand.”
The “Atlas” star then rejoined the rest of the guests on the couch, where she joked, “I’m holding it together.”
Lopez announced the cancellation of her tour in May, telling her fans in a newsletter that she was “completely heartsick and devastated” about the announcement.
“Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary,” she continued. “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…”
At the time, Lopez was rumored to be experiencing relationship issues with her now estranged husband, Ben Affleck. The singer officially filed for divorce from the “Argo” star in August.
