(NewsNation) — While Jennifer Lopez isn’t going to Las Vegas for her residency, she may be the only one.
“With everything going on in the world, this is likely the last year. For large international travels (for Americans),” my Vegas insider said.

“It’s just a lot easier for artists to have their fans come to them than travel the world going to the fans. It’s easier on their personal lives — they’re not away from home and family for months at a time — and it’s more cost-effective as you don’t have to pay hundreds of roadies to truck your set around to every city.”
