JLo gets choked up explaining why she canceled her tour
Jennifer's performance comes months after she canceled her tour. In an interview with The Graham Norton Show, she reflected on her 'THIS IS ME…LIVE' canceled tour. "I decided to take 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," she said.
The 55-year-old, who recently had a special moment with her daughter, Emme, said she likes to apologize to fans whenever the topic comes up, "I know a lot of them were coming out," she shared. JLo encountered a fan the day before who had tickets to the show, and the experience brought her to tears. "This was actually very touching," she shared, getting emotional. "Coming out of the hotel yesterday, [a fan] was like 'I had tickets to go see you,' and I was like, 'I'm so sorry,' and he was like 'Don't say sorry, we love you.' I started crying right away," she shared.

"Jennifer I'm here," the fan she was talking about said from the audience, which made the singer get out of her chair and give him a big hug. JLo expressed her excitement to the super fan, saying that after their interaction, she got into the car and started crying. She reiterated how difficult it was for her to cancel the tour. "I've never done that before," she told him.
