Karol G is another artist who has dominated the music charts not only in Latin America but worldwide. Following the immense success of her albums Mañana Será Bonito and the subsequent release of her Bichota Version, the singer embarked on a tour with the same name. Although the tour has yet to conclude, it has already set several significant records, notably becoming the first Latina artist to go on a stadium tour.
La ‘bichota’ has already been in numerous countries, including Mexico, Costa Rica, and her native Colombia. Her most recent concert took place in Caracas, Venezuela, at the Simón Bolívar Stadium. Just like in other venues, tickets for both of her March shows sold out completely. According to a report by MVS Noticias, a fight between two women broke out while waiting in line to enter the event on the first day of the concert. However, this altercation was just a taste of what was to come the next day.
During the second day, there was an altercation that endangered many of the attendees. Apparently, some people without tickets tried to force their way into the show, causing disturbances just outside the stadium where ‘la Bichota’ was performing. The situation escalated when ticket-holding attendees were unable to access the event –leading to further chaos and frustration.

Just a few weeks ago, Karol G’s private plane had to make an emergency landing in Van Nuys, Los Angeles, due to reported smoke in the cabin. A few days later, after her concert in Guatemala, a 31-year-old pregnant woman and two men aged 21 and 30 were shot dead in Guatemala City shortly after the show, just outside the venue where the musical event took place.
However, that wasn’t the only thing that happened during the concert, as there was also an electrical failure, which prevented several visual elements from proceeding as usual. “I don’t know what’s happening energetically, but whatever it is, I’m not going to give up. And you came to see my show,” said Karol.
Karol G holds back tears talking to the audience during her concert in Guatemala, following a mid-air emergency with her private jet and a malfunctioning generator at the stadium:

Let’s hope that all these incidents are just a rough patch for the singer.
