On Saturday, August 19, various rumors and news regarding the health status of El Sol de México started circulating on social media: Luis Miguel was in the middle of a series of 10 sold-out concerts in Chile when he was reportedly hospitalized, as per reports from the national press.
In this sense, Chilean journalist Cecilia Gutierrez posted on Instagram that the renowned singer was supposedly taken by his team to a medical clinic due to a «flu-like illness.»
«Just in case, El Sol is fine. It’s a feverish condition, but it doesn’t mean he’s calling off his concerts; it’s only due to changes in his temperature. (…) Luis Miguel is still in a feverish state. A doctor had to visit him at the hotel today,» Gutierrez stated.
Luis Miguel kicked off his highly anticipated tour on August 3rd in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In accordance with the information reported by Mexican journalist María Luisa Valdés Doria on Univisión, it’s from these performances that the singer contracted the flu.
It’s important to note that neither Luis Miguel nor his team have issued any official statement or public comment on the matter at this time. However, on the artist’s official account, a clip was posted yesterday, celebrating the first concerts of the tour in Argentina.
