ENTERTAINMENT
On August 10, during her Up All Night: Live in 2025 tour stop in Almaty, Kazakhstan, Jennifer Lopez experienced an unexpected — and slightly creepy — moment when a cricket crawled up her neck mid-performance. While the crowd was already cheering for her electrifying act, the uninvited insect quite literally stole the spotlight, catching JLo off guard. The viral video of the incident has been flooding social media, with fans praising the pop icon’s composure and professionalism despite the close encounter.

Social Media Can’t Stop Talking About It
Fans quickly flooded social media with witty and spirited reactions to the viral cricket moment. One user on X wrote, “I love how calm and composed she is here… also the fact that she never lets online hate ruin her aura is INSANE!! Queen behaviour.” Another admitted, “Omg, I would have freaked out. Kudos to her.”
Some couldn’t resist making playful jabs, with one fan joking, “Is Ben Affleck the cricket?” while another observed, “Kinda looks like she wanted to scream afterwards.”
Her official fan account even joined in, sharing the clip with the caption: “Plot twist: @JLo just started rehearsals for Kiss of the Cricket Woman… on stage… in real time.”
The Cricket Connection
For those unaware, “Kiss of the Cricket Woman” was a cheeky nod to Lopez’s upcoming film Kiss of the Spider Woman, a new adaptation of the 1993 Broadway classic in which she stars.
The cricket’s surprise cameo offered an unexpected twist to the end of her Up All Night tour stop in Kazakhstan. The tour, which began in Spain in July, will wrap up with its final show on August 12 in Italy.
