If you're a fan of Jennifer Lopez, you're in for a treat this summer. JLo is gearing up to headline the WorldPride Music Festival in Washington, DC, on June 6 and 7. This isn't just any gig—it's the largest LGBTQ+ music festival in history, bringing together an incredible mix of pop, house, drag, EDM, and techno vibes across three stages.
After canceling her US Summer 2024 Tour, "THIS IS ME...LIVE," Jennifer Lopez is making a powerful return. The singer, actress, and all-around icon decided to press pause on her tour to spend quality time with her children, family, and close friends. She admitted in a heartfelt newsletter message, "I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down." Even though it was a tough decision, she promised, "I promise I will make it up to you and we will all be together again."

Jennifer Lopez is 'as strong as ever'
Lopez's fallout and breakup with Ben Affleck were under a microscope for months, but thankfully, she's doing just fine. One of JLo's best friends, Author Loren Ridinger, chatted with Us Weekly to promote her book "Scrambled or Sunny-Side Up?" where she shared an update about the 55-year-old star. “I realized that she is as strong as ever and just a powerhouse,” Ridinger told the outlet.

"If we wanted to cry, we could cry. If we wanted to laugh, we could laugh. And we realized that there is sun again, and there are rainbows again," she explained.
