Last week, Shakira performed two nights at the famed MetLife Stadium — only for New Jersey's Department of Health to issue a serious statement about a possible measles outbreak due to one concertgoer.
The four-time Grammy Award winner, 48, may have killed it at back-to-back shows at the East Rutherford, New Jersey stadium as part of her Las Mujeres Ya No Llora World Tour — but it's the health scare following the concerts that has attendees seriously worried.
The "Hips Don't Lie" singer performed her first MetLife show this tour on Thursday, May 15 and her second night on Friday, May 16.
On Tuesday May 20, the New Jersey Department of Health made an unexpected and serious statement about the potential spread of the illness after an out-of-state infected fan attended the shows. The NJDOH urged fellow concertgoers and New Jersey residents to be vigilant of any measles symptoms that could show up.
"The New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH) is alerting residents about potential exposures associated with a newly identified case of measles in a non-NJ resident who attended a concert in NJ while infectious," the statement read, revealing that any fans who attended Shakira's May 15 and 16th shows at MetLife should be particularly cautious.
While the NJDOH reported that "no additional associated cases in New Jersey have been identified," the health department made sure to note that those exposed to the measles at the shows "could develop symptoms as late as June 6, 2025."
Shakira has yet to address the potential measles outbreak at her New Jersey shows. Following the performances at MetLife, she continued on to her regularly scheduled tour stop in Montreal on Tuesday.
