48-year-old Shakira Rushed to Hospital Right Before Concert

The incident occurred just before her concert.

The incident occurred just before her concert. The 48-year-old singer was set to perform in Peru, but a day before the event, she had to seek medical help, leading to her hospitalization. The next day, Shakira's condition hadn't improved, and doctors strictly prohibited her from performing on stage, forcing the artist to cancel the concert.

"I'm sorry to inform you all that I had to go to the hospital due to stomach issues, and I am now hospitalized. The doctors, under whose care I am, have told me that I am not in good enough condition to perform. I am very sad that I won't be able to go on stage. I was really looking forward to meeting my incredible fans in Peru," the artist shared on her photo blog.

Shakira refrained from going into detail about her health concerns, only mentioning that she was having stomach problems. She is currently undergoing treatment and hopes to be discharged soon. The artist also reassured her fans in Peru, assuring them that the concert would take place, and her team is already working on selecting a new date.

"I hope I will be discharged and recover so I can perform. My team and promoters are already working on a new date to inform you. Thank you all for your understanding. I love you all," the artist said to her fans.

It is worth noting that Shakira recently celebrated her 48th birthday. She shared how she spent the special day with her sons from her former partner, footballer Gerard Piqué.
