After hosting the American Music Awards on Monday, Jennifer Lopez announced her new 12-date Up All Night Live in Las Vegas residency to be staged at Caesars Palace's The Colosseum.

'Surprise JLovers!' the 55-year-old pop diva — who boasts 386.4M social media followers — wrote on Instagram. 'We're back!'

Jennifer doesn't kick off the series of Nevada concerts until December 30, but presale tickets begin as early as June 2 while general tickets go on sale June 6.

Lopez's prior Las Vegas residency - All I Have at Planet Hollywood's Zappos Theater - reportedly grossed $101.9M and ran for 121 shows spanning 2016 to 2018.

The two-time Grammy nominee's announcement came nearly one year after she was 'completely heartsick and devastated' to cancel her 30-date This is Me... Live: The Greatest Hits tour.

Jennifer explained via her On the Jlo newsletter that she was 'taking time off to be with her children, family, and close friends.'

At the time, Lopez was facing backlash stemming from burnout over her self-funded, This Is Me... Now vanity projects including an album, movie, and documentary.

Lopez - who gets 30.4M monthly listeners on Spotify - will kick off her 18-date Up All Night: Live in 2025 Tour on July 4 at Rixos Radamis in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.

'I like being close to home. It's convenient for me in that way instead of touring the whole world,' the Emmy-nominated producer told Variety of her new Vegas residency.

'I canceled my tour last year, so I've been thinking a lot about performing and how I wanted to get back out there. 

'I'm doing a small tour in the summer because I haven't gone international and then it was like, "Do you want to go on tour or do you want to do a residency?" 

'And I was like, "You know what? I think I'll just do a residency."'

Jennifer wants to 'stay close' to her 17-year-old fraternal twins - Maximilian Muñiz and Emme Muñiz - from her seven-year marriage to ex-husband number three Marc Anthony, which ended in 2011.

'Even when I go [on tour] this summer, they're going to be away from me and you know, I like being home,' Lopez explained.

The Atlas producer-star - 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.

Last month, Deadline reported that Jennifer 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.

Lopez 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.

The Kamala Harris campaigner's fourth ex-husband Ben Affleck produced the big-screen version of the 1992 West End musical co-starring Tonatiuh and Diego Luna.

Jennifer 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.
