Pop star Shakira has been hospitalized in Lima, Peru due to a stomach issue, leading to the cancellation of her Sunday show in the Andean country. In a social media post, she expressed regret, stating, "I had to go to the emergency room for an abdominal issue...I'm currently hospitalized...not well enough to perform tonight." Shakira, who arrived in Lima on Saturday, greeted by hundreds of fans at the airport, hopes to recover soon for her upcoming show and mentioned her preparedness for the event.
Shakira, acclaimed for songs like "La Tortura" and "Hips Don't Lie," is renowned for her crossover success from the Spanish-speaking to the English-speaking music market, paving the way for Latin artists. Despite this setback, she anticipates being released from the hospital shortly to continue her tour, commencing last week in Brazil.
