Lima, Peru – The streets of Lima were filled with disappointment on Sunday when Colombian superstar Shakira announced that she had to cancel her highly anticipated concert in the city due to an unexpected health condition. The singer took to her Instagram and X accounts to share the news with her loyal fans, expressing her deep sadness and regret for not being able to perform.
Shakira shared that she was currently hospitalized for an abdominal condition and that her doctors had advised her against performing. In her statement, she expressed her emotions and excitement to reunite with her beloved Peruvian audience, but unfortunately, her health did not allow her to do so.
The singer arrived in Peru on Friday evening, where she was scheduled to perform on Sunday and Monday as part of her Latin America tour, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran. This came after successful nights in Brazil last week, where she received a warm welcome from her Latin fans. Crowds gathered at the airport to greet her, and she took to Instagram to thank them for their love and support.
The disappointment was felt not only by Shakira but also by her fans in Peru who were eagerly waiting to see her live in concert. However, the singer assured them that she is determined to recover soon and make it up to them. “My plan is to perform this show as soon as possible. My team and the promoter are already working on a new date,” she said in her statement.
Shakira’s latest album, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, has been receiving critical acclaim, and her tour is in support of this record. The album, which channels her highly publicized divorce into music, includes the global hit “Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53” and recently won Best Latin Pop Album at the 2024 Grammy Awards. This adds to the long list of accolades and achievements for the talented singer.
Despite facing an unexpected setback, Shakira’s tour will continue across Latin America before heading to Canada and the United States in May for a series of concerts through June. Her determination and dedication to her fans are commendable, and it is no surprise that she has a massive following all around the world.

Until then, let us all send positive vibes and wish Shakira a quick return to the stage.
