| Jennifer Lopez to perform at 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil |
Despite her reps telling CNN on Sunday she wouldn't perform in Brazil, new reports are confirming that Jennifer Lopez will hit the stage for the world's biggest football tournament come Thursday, June 12.
According to Radar Online, the backlash was so significant that she decided that she needed to attend to help boost her image amid her recent split from younger boyfriend, Casper Smart.
A World Cup rep’s statement didn’t
list a specific reason for the singer's withdrawal, but confirms that
it all came down to money. "JLo was in a back and forth with the World
Cup about expenses," the insider confirmed. "She had wanted them to
cover everything for her, from private transportation, to her hotel and
the costs associated for her entire entourage."
When the committee allegedly wouldn't agree to her terms, JLo decided to pull out. But with a new album – AKA
- dropping that same June 12, the actress/singer reportedly decided
that performing the official song would be in her best interest.
Her
record label reportedly advised her to do the performance because "It's
the world stage…It would have been foolish for her not to exploit the
World Cup for the publicity factor alone."
