Colombian pop icon Shakira has confirmed that her world tour will continue as planned despite her recent hospitalization in Peru. The 48-year-old singer, who was briefly admitted to a hospital on Saturday night due to a sudden medical emergency, had to cancel her Sunday concert but is now ready to return to the stage.
In an Instagram post on Monday, Shakira assured fans that her highly anticipated show at the National Stadium in Lima would proceed as scheduled.
“The gates will open at 4:00 p.m. for a concert set to kick off at 8:15 p.m.,” she announced, without addressing details about her health.
Events company Masterlive also confirmed that the show would go on and promised to reschedule the canceled performance.
Shakira is currently on her first world tour in seven years, titled Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran (Women Don’t Cry Anymore). The tour kicked off in Rio de Janeiro just days after she won a Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album. With over 90 million records sold and four Grammy wins to her name, she remains one of the most influential Latin artists in history.
The global superstar is set to perform nearly 50 shows across Latin America before heading to the United States and Canada later in the year. Fans are eager to see her return to the stage following her brief health scare.
