Shakira cancels sixth concert of world tour amid ongoing issues

Shakira's concert in Washington D.C. was canceled due to logistical issues following a Boston show, sparking fan outrage over repeated tour disruptions.


Shakira cancels sixth concert of world tour amid ongoing issues

The popular Colombian singer was scheduled to perform this weekend at Nationals Park, although it seems the cancellation of her Thursday show in Boston at Fenway Park made it impossible for her and her team to make it to the show.

The organization also shared another statement that was given to people who had purchased tickets to the event.

Shakira shared a message of her own to her Instagram followers, writing, "Nothing more painful for an artist than having to cancel two sold-out stadium shows like Boston and DC for reasons beyond one's control."

"Thank you for being there in the good times and the not so good," she continued. "We've cruised together through every bump in the road, and you always take me to the other side. Los quiero con todo."

"There are two things I would never compromise: the security of my team and that of my fans, and I would never offer a show below the quality standards that you all deserve," she wrote. "My heart is broken in a thousand pieces to not be able to perform for you due to reasons out of my control."

After the cancellation of Saturday's show in Washington, D.C., social media users began discussing what seems to be a developing trend for the tour.

Another wrote, "I love shakira to death but i can't accept any excuses. no matter how many technical issues they bring out. this is is just her fault. cancelling your concert on the show day is just unacceptable. idk if you know how this have impacted your image."

"I can understand one or two shows, but 6 is ridiculous!" another post read. "Figure it out before or get a regular stage that doesn't extend on the floor since it seems like that is the issue here."

Another insisted, "All I know is, Shakira will never cancel or reschedule if things are up to her."
