Shakira fans in Boston are heartbroken after the Colombian superstar canceled her Thursday and Friday shows at Fenway Park at the last minute due to staging issues, just hours before the first performance was set to begin.
Safety Concerns Shut It Down
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that a routine pre-show inspection revealed structural problems with the stage setup. Boston Inspectional Services ultimately shut things down, citing safety concerns. Thankfully, no one was injured during the rehearsal.
Other artists like Jason Aldean and Brooks & Dunn, who were also slated to perform Friday on the same stage, have had their shows canceled as well.
