Shakira realizing she can go on vacation  until February 11th when the tour starts in Brazil. 
 

She might get a new bf by then and cancel that leg too in order to have free time for Valentine's Day

[Dancehall Queen]

Lack of demand. She needs to book those arenas again

Theaters if she doesn't step up her lackluster game.

It wouldn't surprise me.  I bet Shakira is desperately scheming for ways to delay the tour even more.

Someone said tickets weren't selling because they were too expensive?

At this point it wouldn't surprise me if she cancels her car giveaway

Probably couldn't afford to pay all the artists.

Seems plausible, given how they basically had every single Latin A-lister artist

Latin music festival, originally scheduled for Dec. 21 at Dodger Stadium, will not go on as planned. 
 

Shakira, Pitbull, Enrique Iglesias, and Tigres Del Norte were scheduled to headline the event. 
The organizers' decision to cancel the 2024 iteration of the fest came after Shakira switched her fall arena tour for a stadium run next summer, according to sources.

The festival had like 700 performers, even if shakira backed out they could've gone on. It's probably an issue with the venue.

Isn't the festival supposed to take place outside the Stadium in the parking lots? 

It has to be, Dodger Stadium is going through a major remodel atm

This is what it looked liked just recently, no way they'll have that ready in 3 weeks

Festival takes place in the parking lot of the stadium, the renovations are happening in the stadium. Camp Flog Gnaw was held without any issues this month.

Shakira probably canceled to cause demand and sell her own tickets

This is sad
