Jennifer Lopez' $9 million (£8,297,190.00) Las Vegas residency deal is reportedly in jeopardy as her newly released album and concert tour flops.
While J. Lo was met with an astounding offer of a $1 million (£921,910.00) per night concert deal, it seems that the offer might not be on the table long. According to reports from The Post, the 54-year-old singer was recently in talks with MGM Grand over the deal that would include 90 dates beginning next year, but now sources claim casino executives could be reconsidering.
The insiders claim that executives are having cold feet over the deal as ticket sales for Jennifer's first concert tour have been met with low demand from fans with reports that J. Lo's team has been forced to cancel seven of her shows this summer. The insider told the news outlet: “MGM is watching her not doing well on the road. They are very nervous. It’s pretty rare you have a poor tour and then go to Vegas.”

They continued: "Jennifer is so excited and has been planning this for a while. Centre of her mind is that will be a celebration and a party. Jennifer is in such a great head space and ready to play live. The US shows will come first and then she will work out what shows she wants to do elsewhere in the world. Her team are working out which International dates will work for her schedule."
Jennifer's new music and tour ticket sales have flopped, according to sources (Getty Images)In February, Jennifer dropped her first album in over a decade titled This is Me ... Now. The new project was a sequel to the pop singer's third studio smash album titled This is Me ... Then from 2002. In J. Jo's documentary The Greatest Love Story Never Told, she spoke about her journey to creating the album revealing that it was heavily inspired by her rekindled romance with actor Ben Affleck.
And while Jennifer's music is tanking in interest from fans her marriage with the Gone Girl star has also been rife with divorce speculation. In recent weeks, J. Lo and Ben at the centre of split rumours as they attend events alone, have been spotted out and about without their wedding rings, and reports that they have been living separately.
