Shakira faces a series of setbacks during his tour Women no longer cry World Tour In the United States. The most recent occurred on May 30, 2025, when the cancellation of the concert scheduled at the National Stadium in Washington DC was announced, because the production failed to move in time from Boston, where the functions of May 29 and 30 were also suspended. The event had an additional symbolic value: it was the inaugural spectacle of LGTBI world pride in the US capital.
The Barranquillera artist expressed her sadness for what happened through an official statement, ensuring that she hopes to return to Washington DC soon and thanking the unconditional support of her followers. Refunds will be automatic for those who bought their tickets at Ticketmaster or with the Nationals, while those who acquired them by other media must contact their distributors directly.
This has not been the only stumbling block. In New Jersey, the Department of Health investigates a possible mass exposure to measles during the concert at the Metlife Stadium, which generated health concern at the second stop of the Tour. In addition, in Montreal, Canada, the singer suffered a fall on stage during a choreography, although she managed to recover quickly and continue the show.
Despite these incidents, the tour continues with presentations programmed in important US cities, including Atlanta, Miami, San Antonio, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The next presentation is scheduled for June 2 at the State Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The tour has been acclaimed by critics and celebrates the success of his latest album, Grammy winner for the best Latin pop album.
Logistic, health and physical setbacks reflect the challenges of great international tours, but also the resilience of an artist like Shakira, who continues to bet with his global audience despite the difficulties.
