Ticketmaster’s site blamed “the event organizer” for the nixed shows but didn't offer any explanation to ticket holders — only a refund, per the outlet.
However, PEOPLE has learned there was a logistical issue through the tour's promoter with its last several dates, which led to the cancelation.
In late February, Lopez announced the addition of second shows in Miami, Toronto and her native New York City.
Currently, This Is Me... Now the Tour will conclude following a two-night stand in N.Y.C. at Madison Square Garden on Aug. 16 and 17.
