Global pop icon Shakira has been hospitalized due to an abdominal issue, forcing her to cancel her highly anticipated concert in Peru.
The singer, who is currently on her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour, shared the unfortunate news on Instagram, expressing deep regret over the situation.
In an Instagram story, Shakira revealed, “I am sorry to inform you all that last night I had to go to the ER for an abdominal issue and am currently hospitalized.”
She also mentioned that doctors advised her against performing at the National Stadium in Lima, stating that her health was not in a condition to take the stage that evening.
“I am very sad not to be able to take the stage today,” she added, emphasizing how much she had been looking forward to performing in Peru.
Concert rescheduling
Despite her health concerns, Shakira reassured fans that her team and event organizers are working on rescheduling the concert. “They are already working on a new date to communicate to you,” she confirmed, signing off simply as “Shak.”
While Shakira did not disclose further details about her condition, the news comes just days after she kicked off her tour in Rio de Janeiro on February 11.
Shakira’s recent Grammy win
Shakira’s Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran album has been a massive success, recently earning her a Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards earlier this month.
During her acceptance speech, she dedicated the award to “all my immigrant brothers and sisters” and “all of those women who work really hard every day to provide for their families.”
