Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Lopez and the Challenge of Aging a Pop Career Gracefully

Jennifer Lopez has quietly rebranded her tour as a greatest hits show following low ticket sales and some dates being cancelled.Originally, the tour was branded as her ‘This Is Me… Now’ tour, and announced back in February to coincide with the release of her album of the same name.Now, seemingly because of low ticket sales, the tour has been rebranded by the singer as ‘This Is Me… Live | The Greatest Hits’ – distancing itself from the new LP.As highlighted by outlets including Variety and The A.V. Club, the album struggled to find an audience upon its release, selling 14,000 copies in its first week and arriving at Number 38 on the Billboard 200 – the second of her nine studio albums to place outside the Top 10.The studio release was one part of a self-financed $20million multimedia project, including the tour and two films: This Is Me…Now: A Love Story, and a documentary titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told.The A.V. Club has claimed that the rebranding of the tour may come in a bid to boost ticket sales and stop fans from thinking that the live show will see Lopez predominantly sing tracks from the new LP.Lopez’s reps and Live Nation, which is producing the tour, have not publicly responded to Variety’s request for comment, and Live Nation’s site hasn’t been updated to reflect the tour’s name change.

Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer After canceling seven dates of her first North American tour in five years amid weak ticket sales, Jennifer Lopez has renamed it to apparently broaden its scope, changing it from “This Is Me… Now” to “This Is Me… Live | The Greatest Hits.” Lopez initially announced the trek in February to coincide with the release of her latest album “This Is Me… Now” and its accompanying two films. But she quietly canceled some of its dates last month in cities like Cleveland and Nashville, likely due to poor sales.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck might be looking to purchase a home in New York City. The couple was spotted this past weekend looking at various million dollar homes, with both wearing some stylish outfits appropriate for the Big Apple.

, however, chose to embody a very specific, very iconic New York stereotype while house-hunting with Ben Affleck over the weekend: The Boss.On Saturday, March 30, Lopez wore all the hallmarks of aN HBIC: a no-nonsense slicked-back bun, an with shoulder pads that would make even a linebacker cower, impractical— though nonetheless impressive—heels, and impenetrable sunglasses. And let's not forget the most important accessory: a designer handbag (the Hermès Kelly bag in black crocodile) that cost more than an entire year's worth of my rent.The rest of her look is really inconsequential by comparison—she could've been wearing a sweatsuit underneath that black coat, and the effect would've been the same. For this particular outing, though, J.Lo wore a cropped camel turtleneck sweater and wide-leg jeans with a destroyed hem.

Ever since Homeland Security raided the homes of the 54-year-old rapper in connection with a federal sex trafficking investigation, social media users have been scrutinizing his past. Think of everything from his creepy close relationship with a teen Justin Bieber to his old relationship with Jennifer Lopez.

Jennifer Lopez is looking fitter than ever. The actress and singer has recently shared one of her workout routines in a video recorded from her backyard, revealing that all it takes is some dumbbells and the desire to show up.

Taylor Swift may be music’s boss bunny when it comes to burrowing those Easter eggs for us to dig out and dissect — a tunneling trend that will no doubt continue when she drops “The Tortured Poets Department” on April 19 — she isn’t the only superstar singer playing hide and seek with their fans.Indeed, heavy hitters such as Ariana Grande, Kacey Musgraves and Justin Timberlake have turned their new albums — “Eternal Sunshine,” “Deeper Well” and “Everything I Thought It Was,” respectively — into a veritable hunting ground for the pastel-colored dish as we head into Easter weekend.On “Eternal Sunshine” — her seventh studio album, which had the highest debut of 2024 and remained at No. 1 in its second week on the Billboard 200 — the perpetually ponytailed diva is on the divorce come-up after her split from real estate agent Dalton Gomez, who she married in 2021.And there are also lyrical clues about her “Thank U, Next” relationship with her “Wicked” co-star Ethan Slater.

This Is Me … Now: A Love Story,” when she takes her hair down and says, “It reminds me like, when I was 16 in The Bronx running up and down the block.” The Castle Hill native turned Tinseltown superstar was mocked for using the borough for relatability points — working-class stolen valor.Then a clip surfaced from Lopez’s 2022 interview for Vogue’s “73 Questions” video series in which she reveals her go-to bodega order: ham and cheese on a roll, a small bag of chips and an orange drink.She added of the mysterious drink, “If you know, you know.” TikTok users said they did not.I admit, I don’t either. Bodegas and convenience stores used to hawk some dodgy food and drinks, so it could have been any number of suspicious carrot-colored concoctions.In the ’80s and early ’90s — likely the last time Lopez crossed the threshold of a dingy ol’ neighborhood bodega — offerings were less varied and way more simple. This was before sandwiches were made for social media, with a pile of ingredients higher than the sky, and there was no arsenal of fancy snacks and beverage brands.Instead, we had littleplastic containers of liquid in every color in the rainbow.

Before reaching A-list status in Hollywood, some celebrities were once roommates in the early years of their careers. Many celebrity roommates, such as Dianna Agron and Lea Michele, met and lived together because they starred in the same show. In this case, Agron and Michele were both actors of "Glee," and decided to room together while filming.

Jennifer Lopez and her daughter Emme Muñiz enjoyed a fantastic weekend in New York City. The mother-daughter duo ventured to ‘The City That Never Sleeps’, indulging in the acclaimed production of Merrily We Roll Along, one of Broadway’s recent smash-hit musicals.

Thania Garcia Ariana Grande keeps a strong hold over the Billboard 200 with a second week at No. 1 for her latest LP, “Eternal Sunshine,” which came almost within sight of Kacey Musgraves’ new “Deeper Well” album. Grande extends her run at No.

Jennifer Lopez is still getting ruthlessly mocked. Last week, she got trolled for a clip from her film “This Is Me … Now: A Love Story.”And now, Lopez’s Bronx go-to bodega order is going viral.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, who seemed to be having some fun while driving around Los Angeles and spending some quality time with their kids, Seraphina and Emme.

Justin Timberlake’s last studio album, 2018’s “Man of the Woods,” on which the pop superstar got his Americana on.But many of the fans who had rocked their bodies to his previous hit LPs — from 2002’s “Justified” to 2006’s “FutureSex/LoveSounds” to 2013’s “The 20/20 Experience” — weren’t feeling the flannel on JT.And, by his lofty standards, “Man of the Woods” was the first (relative) flop of his career. It was the first real misstep from a man who had seemed to have all the right moves as he smoothly grooved from curly haired boy-bander to sexy-MFing solo sensation.But on “Everything I Thought It Was,” Timberlake, now 43, is back to being a Man of the Dance Floor, a Man of the Bedroom and even, once again, a Man of the Boy Band.(Yup, *NSYNC is back!)Suffice to say, Chris Stapleton is nowhere to be found on this joint.Clearly, Timberlake is trying — almost desperately — to make up for lost time on his sixth solo LP, which stretches out to 77 minutes.And no, it’s not a double album.

Justin Timberlake‘s new album Everything I Thought It Was is out in the world now and he celebrated its release with a star-studded party in Los Angeles.

Justin Timberlake is celebrating the release of his new album!

Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer Justin Timberlake‘s sixth album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” arrives in a cultural landscape far different than his previous ones.

Fans who scored a ticket to Justin Timberlake's free one-night show in Los Angeles were in for a surprise when the entire '90s boy band NSYNC performed live for the first time in 13 years last night. Timberlake performed a show ahead of the Friday release of his highly anticipated album "Everything I Thought It Was." What seemed to be an ordinary Timberlake show turned out to be an NSYNC reunion, when the "Suit & Tie" singer brought his former bandmates out on stage.
