Jennifer Lopez's concert crashed by grasshopper as insect crawls up her NECK in nerve-wrecking moment
Jennifer Lopez had an unexpected guest during her concert on Sunday. A grasshopper crawled onto her neck as she hit the stage at Kazakhstan's Central Stadium in Almaty - but JLo didn't let the creature interrupt her performance. Video posted to her Instagram captures the nerve-wrecking moment the insect decided to crash the show. Jennifer, 56, flashed a somewhat nervous smile as the little critter made its way up her plunging halter top. The Selena actress maintained her composure and appeared to finish off the song before abruptly swatting it away. 'It was tickling me!' Jennifer - who was recently denied entry into a Chanel store in Istanbul after security 'failed to recognise her' - told the crowd as they applauded her performance. The video was captioned: 'Plot twist: @JLo just started rehearsals for Kiss of the Cricket Woman… on stage… in real time.' Lopez is scheduled to conclude her 21-date Up All Night: Live in 2025 Tour this Tuesday at Italy 's Hotel Cala di Volpe in Sardinia. The two-time Grammy nominee - who gets 31.5M monthly listeners on Spotify - will then kick off her 12-date Up All Night Live in Las Vegas residency held at Caesars Palace's The Colosseum on December 30. Last year, Jennifer was forced to cancel her 30-date This is Me... Live: The Greatest Hits tour amid low ticket sales, but she claimed she was 'taking time off to be with her children, family, and close friends.' At the time, Lopez was facing substantial online backlash stemming from burnout over her self-funded, This Is Me... Now vanity projects including an album, movie, and documentary. The American Music Awards producer-host also has a notorious reputation in the music industry for passing off the vocals of African-American singers like Ashanti, Christina Milian, and Brandy as her own. For instance in 2002, Jennifer not only kept the entire Jenny from the Block chorus and bridge performed by her back-up vocalist Natasha Ramos on the finished record, she even kept her giggles from the original demo. Lopez - who's played a bride in nine films - recently produced and starred in Ol Parker's rom-com Office Romance for Netflix opposite Ted Lasso alum Brett Goldstein. View this post on Instagram A post shared by On The JLo (@onthejlo) Last April, Deadline reported that the Unstoppable producer-star signed on to play a con artist who targets a wealthy couple in Robert Zemeckis' big-screen adaptation of Liv Constantine's 2018 novel The Last Mrs. Parrish, which will also stream on Netflix. Jennifer took on three different characters - Leni Lamaison, Marta, and Spider Woman - in Bill Condon's $30M-budget musical Kiss of the Spider Woman, which hits US theaters October 10. Lopez's fourth ex-husband Ben Affleck produced the big-screen version of the 1992 West End musical co-starring Tonatiuh and Diego Luna. The Emmy-nominated producer and the 52-year-old Oscar winner's divorce was officially finalized on February 20. The couple formerly known as 'Bennifer' still need to sell their $68M 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom megamansion in Beverly Hills aka Crestview Manor, which they originally paid $60.85M for in May 2023. Jennifer is mother to 17-year-old fraternal twins - Maximilian Muñiz and Emme Muñiz - from her seven-year marriage to ex-husband #3 Marc Anthony, which ended in 2011.
