  • Shakira said that her full tour production could not be moved to Washington, D.C., in time for the scheduled performance, and promised to do everything possible to reunite with her fans soon.
  • The D.C. show marks the sixth cancellation of Shakira’s ongoing Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour, with previous cancellations due to hospitalisation, stage safety concerns, and technical issues.
