Global pop sensation Shakira has sent shockwaves through her fanbase after being hospitalized in Peru due to a sudden stomach issue, forcing the cancellation of her highly anticipated Sunday concert.
The Colombian superstar took to social media on February 16, 2025, to share the distressing news, writing, “I’m sorry to let you all know that last night I had to go to the emergency room for an abdominal issue and I’m currently hospitalized. The doctors taking care of me have let me know that I’m not well enough to perform tonight.”
Shakira had arrived in Lima on Saturday, marking her first performance in the city in over a decade. Her arrival was met with an outpouring of love, as hundreds of fans greeted her at the airport, a moment captured in videos she shared online.
The abrupt health scare has left her supporters reeling, especially as she expressed hope for a swift recovery: “I hope to be better by tomorrow and that they release me from hospital as soon as possible to be able to put on the show that I’ve prepared for you all.”
Known for chart-topping hits like “La Tortura” with Alejandro Sanz and her viral 2023 diss track targeting ex-partner Gerard Piqué, produced by Bizarrap, Shakira has long been a trailblazer for Latin artists in the English-speaking market. Her iconic “Hips Don’t Lie” with Wyclef Jean remains a global anthem, showcasing her signature dance moves.
The singer’s next scheduled performance in Lima is set for Monday, part of her ongoing tour that kicked off in Brazil last week. As fans await updates on her condition, this unexpected setback has only heightened the anticipation—and concern—surrounding her return to the stage.
