It’s My Party: The Live Celebration will launch in June. Lopez made the announcement on Ellen, revealing that there will be guest appearances from the stars of NBC reality competition World of Dance, where she serves as both executive producer and judge. This will be Lopez’s first trek since 2012’s Dance Again World Tour, which was in support of her album Love? and featured Enrique Iglesias as her co-headliner on the American tour dates. Since then, she has headlined a successful Las Vegas residency called All I Have, which concluded last year. Prior to the announcement, Lopez appeared at Sunday’s Grammy Awards as the star of a tribute to Motown’s 60th anniversary. Last August, she was honored at the MTV Video Music Awards where she received the Video Vanguard honor. Her last full-length album was 2014’s A.K.A., though she has been steadily releasing Spanish-language singles since then, most notably the Bad Bunny collaboration “Te Guste.” Jennifer Lopez’s It’s My Party: The Live Celebration Tour Dates June 7 – Phoenix, AZ @ Talking Stick Resort Arena June 8 – Las Vegas, NV @ T-Mobile Arena June 10 – San Diego, CA @ Pechanga Arena June 12 – Los Angeles, CA @ Staples Center June 15 – San Jose, CA @ SAP Center June 16 – Sacramento, CA @ Golden 1 Center June 19 – Denver, CO @ Pepsi Center June 21 – San Antonio, TX @ AT&T Center June 22 – Hidalgo, TX @ Bert Ogden Arena June 24 – Dallas, TX @ American Airlines Center June 25 – Houston, TX @ Toyota Center June 28 – San Juan, Puerto Rico @ Coliseo de Puerto Rico Jose Miguel Agrelot June 30 – Chicago, IL @ United Center July 5 – Detroit, MI @ Little Caesars Arena July 7 – Toronto, ON @ Scotiabank Arena July 10 – Montreal, QC @ Centre Bell July 12 – New York, NY @ Madison Square Garden July 16 – Mansfield, MA @ Xfinity Center July 17 – Washington, D.C. @ Capital One Arena July 19 – Newark, NJ @ Prudential Center July 20 – Philadelphia, PA @ Wells Fargo Center July 22 – Atlanta, GA @ State Farm Arena July 23 – Orlando, FL @ Amway Center July 26 – Miami, FL @ AmericanAirlines Arena<doc-sep>Jennifer Lopez knows how to throw a birthday bash! The 49-year-old pop diva is preparing for her milestone 50th birthday in July, and she is celebrating in a big way. The “Limitless” singer appears on Wednesday’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show where she reveals some big news. “This summer I decided I wanted to do something big for my birthday, since it’s a big birthday,” she says. "I’m going on a U.S. tour, it’s called It’s My Party… We’re only doing 25, 28 shows, something like that. It’s just a small amount of shows, but we’ll be out all through June and July.” “It’s My Party: The Live Celebration” Tour will kick off June 7 in Phoenix, Arizona, and make stops in Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, New York and more, before wrapping July 26 in Miami, Florida. The tour will also feature the “World of Dance Experience,” in which audiences will be treated to surprise dance guest performances by stars from her NBC dance show “World of Dance.” Tickets aren’t on sale yet, but American fans are sure to be treated to quite the show. During Wednesday’s appearance, Lopez noted that she doesn’t feel like she’s almost 50. "It’s nuts. Anybody else still feel like you’re 16? I feel like I’m 26,” the fit star tells the audience. Lopez and her boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez, recently completed an epic 10-day no carb, no sugar diet, and it turns out she tried the intense regimen for a reason. "I’m getting ready for this movie I’m going to do call Hustlers and I have to play a stripper,” she explains, noting that her trainer challenged her to cut out carbs and sugar. “I’m a sugar and carb [addict]. That’s most of my diet… It was really hard. Not only do you get a headache, you feel like you’re in an alternate reality or universe. You don’t feel like yourself. You realize that you’re addicted to sugar. You’re thinking about it all the time.” She noted that after taking a brief break, she wanted to go back on the diet again. “It’s something that you get used to,” she notes. Story continues The diet certainly proved its worth at the 2019 GRAMMYs, where J.Lo slayed during the Motown tribute.
