«I regret to inform you that last night I had to go to the emergency room due to an abdominal condition and I am currently hospitalized,» she stated in her Instagram Stories. «The doctors treating me have informed me that I am not in a condition to perform a concert tonight. I am very sad that I won’t be able to take the stage (…) My plan is to hold this show as soon as possible, and my team and the promoter are already working on a new date to announce,» the singer revealed.
