‘I like it hot!': J. Lo sizzles with killer dancing in Abu Dhabi heat
Returning to Abu Dhabi after her stellar performance in February, Jennifer Lopez danced the night away at the Etihad Arena in Yas Island on Tuesday as a part of her 'Up All Night' world tour. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @ Performing iconic songs including 'On the Floor,' 'Ain't Your Mama' and 'Dance Again,' Lopez sizzled with her high energy and killer dance moves. Although I was disappointed 'Jenny From the Block' did not have its own moment to shine, Lopez still performed her 2002 hit single as a medley with Queen's 'We Will Rock You.' A post shared by Jennifer Lopez (@jlo) To celebrate her 56th year, she sang 'Birthday,' the single released on July 24, which was much appreciated by the crowd. The superstar thanked her fans and urged them to love one another and to pursue what they love. Lopez also joked about the UAE heat. 'I like it hot!' she said, fanning herself. With multiple outfit changes and quick intervals, the show switched from high energy songs to slow ballads and medleys. Lopez paid tribute to her Latin culture and performed some of her hit Spanish songs including 'Que Hiciste' and 'Si Una Vez.' She sang while dancing the flamenco in an outfit inspired by the traditional traje de flamenca, a dress traditionally worn by women at festivals in Andalusia, Spain. The hit singer is no stranger to the Gulf and turned heads in April at the F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah. And last November she hit the stage at the '1001 Seasons of Elie Saab' event in Riyadh.

Comedians and 'Succession-Tok' creators Taylor Owen and James Neal are taking their The Regular Sketch Show from viral to IRL this fall via an eight-city tour of theaters in major markets. On the heels of their sold-out live performance at The New York Comedy Festival in November, the duo will bring their act — which includes impressions, parodies, sketches and banter — to larger venues with a live music element.

Their fans refer to themselves as 'Regs,' and the twosome has been hired by such national brands as HBO, Apple+, Walmart, L'Oreal and Applebee's to create culture-driven content. And Owen has appeared in Abbott Elementary, Dave and Veep. 'We could not be more excited to bring The Regular Sketch Show on the road,' Owen and Neal said in a joint statement. 'Social media has made it easier to reach the masses, but there is something special about performing comedy on stage. It's vulnerable, intimate and best of all allows us to meet our Regs in person.' Last year was a pivotal one for the duo. A few months before their sold-out performance at the New York Comedy Festival, they got engaged after Neal proposed to Owen in Florence, Italy. The couple is planning to wed next year. Business first, honeymoon later. Tickets are on sale now. See below for the tour dates.
