Jennifer Lopez’s rehearsal photos from her “UP ALL NIGHT” residency rehearsals at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace appeared this week on social media. These photos reveal Jennifer Lopez dancing, singing, and performing with her cast of dancers in a rehearsal studio, providing a slick yet close look at what is to come when the residency officially begins on December 30, 2025.
The caption on the photo is brief but telling: “12 Days…”, which sparked much speculation among the fans.
Fans Celebrate the Return of a Pop Icon
The reactions on social media were swift and exhilarated as people congratulated Lopez on her longevity and hard work.
“You’re a LEGEND, love you so much,” a fan commented.
“Let’s go, Mom, I love you,” another chimed in.
Some responded to this theme with a quip: “12 days of Christmas.”
This statement was akin to a Vegas ad: ‘From the Bronx to Vegas royalty, JLo is bringing the heat to her Las Vegas residency. This isn’t just a concert.
It’s an EVENT. Secure your spot before it’s too late,’ said one fan.
Another fan just posted, “The fun’s just begun!”
However, not everyone was in on the joke. One user had a very typical question: “Is JLo doing a Vegas residency?”
Yes, with an asterisk.
A High-Stakes Comeback with Big Guarantees
According to reports, Lopez has a $1 million guarantee deal per show, but the ticket sales are more complicated.
In addition, a source told NewsNation that residency tickets are “just sitting there.”
“She will get $1 million per show,” the insider revealed. “It is still to be determined how many shows per year she will do for this price.”
A search for Ticketmaster ticket listings reveals many seats remain in all sections, ranging from $105 to $1,300, depending on location, according to Daily News reports.
The residency is planned for the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, a traditional spot for big Vegas acts. However, this leg appears more conservative in scope than past residencies.
Testing the Waters After a Setback
Lopez had intended to establish a residency in Las Vegas, but this plan fell through the previous year when MGM canceled the negotiations.
As stated in the News Nation source, “the current dates set for the Colosseum are about testing interest, and not about guaranteeing a long run.”
“It’s all about determining whether there’s still some interest in her, because nobody wanted to make a long-term commitment after what happened toward the end of last year,” the source explained.
The source added that the dates for the new year celebration should attract many visitors, but whether Lopez can maintain the regular throngs in the current Vegas atmosphere will likely become clear during the month-long shows in March.
“It will be crucial,” the source added.
Chasing the Magic of “All I Have”
The show is a big deal, especially given Lopez’s history on the strip. Her residency show, “All I Have,” ran from 2016 to 2018 and sold out many performances, grossing approximately $102 million.
The slow pace of ticket sales for “UP ALL NIGHT” makes it difficult for Lopez to quickly recapture the momentum she was gaining, though her rehearsal footage betrays a promising production.
The Colosseum Theatre at Caesars Palace did not return an inquiry for comment.
