Overview

• During her Aug. 10 performance at Central Stadium in Almaty, Kazakhstan, a large cricket crawled up Jennifer Lopez’s dress and onto her neck mid-song.
• Lopez calmly grabbed the insect, tossed it offstage and told the crowd, “It was tickling me,” before finishing the number without missing a beat.
• Her official fan account captioned the clip “Kiss of the Cricket Woman” in a nod to her upcoming film Kiss of the Spider Woman, and Lopez shared the video on her own Instagram.
• Fans and outlets praised her unfazed reaction, turning the unscripted moment into a viral highlight across Instagram, X and TikTok.
• The encounter follows a July 25 wardrobe malfunction in Warsaw and comes as the final leg of her Up All Night: Live tour nears its Sardinia finale ahead of her December residency at Caesars Palace.
