Shakira announced on Friday the cancellation of the concert he had planned for this Saturday in Washington because production cannot move to the US capital from Boston on time, where he also suspended his show.
«Due to circumstances outside my will, it saddens me and it hurts not to be with you tomorrow in Washington, DC I hope to return to Washington DC as soon as I can. Meanwhile, know that I am eternally grateful for their unconditional support, ”said the Colombian in a statement.
As announced on the Washington Nationals website, whose stadium should host the concert, the production of the Shakira tour “could not be transported on time” due to “complications with the previous concert in Boston.”
According to that statement, automatic refunds will be issued for purchases made on the Ticketmaster and the Nationals website. For external distributors, buyers must communicate directly with them.
The cancellation of the concert, which was announced as the LGTBI world pride show, which this year houses Washington, arrives after Shakira also canceled his shows on days 29 and 30 in Boston (Massachusetts) due to “unforeseen circumstances.”
These are not the first incidents related to the tour of the Colombian singer in the United States, which is being rather rugged.

This Shakira concert was the second stop of the tour Women no longer cry In the country, after being released in Charlotte, in the state of North Carolina.
In addition, he suffered an accident in the middle of the concert in Montreal (Canada). Barranquilla fell while he was dancing, but quickly remedied it.
The singer’s tour in the United States was scheduled for November last year, but the singer postponed to this May, just after his tour of Latin America.
During her passage through Latin America, the interpreter also starred in some cancellations and postponements of concerts, such as in Santiago, Chile or in Medellín.
As planned, the east coast of the United States will travel until June 7, will continue through Texas from June 11 to 15 and conclude on the west coast on June 30 in San Francisco.
However, if you choose to relocate these last cancellations there may be modifications in the calendar.
