Isabel Pantoja has been forced to cancel her long-awaited concert at the Tenerife Fairgrounds, scheduled for April 30. A statement issued by her team and the organization of the event has confirmed that the decision is due to health problems that require urgent medical attention and home rest.
According to the words of Joaquín Prat, who read the official document in Let’s see, the decision “to postpone has not been taken lightly and is made following strict medical indications.” Everything seems to indicate that it will take place in September.
The tonadillera’s health has been a recurring concern in her career, which has been marked by several episodes that limited her ability to fulfill her artistic agenda. Over the years, Pantoja has canceled multiple performances due to various ailments, from vocal problems to severe cases of stress and exhaustion. This pattern of fragile health has significantly affected her trajectory.
Regarding this latest cancellation, everything indicates that Isabel Pantoja has been diagnosed with thrombophlebitis, an inflammatory disease that can cause clots to form in the veins and usually affects the legs, as reported by Gema López in Espejo Público.
At Fiesta they pointed out something else. Monika Vergara slipped that, in addition to her known physical fragility, Pantoja could be facing complications derived from her attempts to lose weight: “Like all women, in our permanent obsession with losing weight, losing fluids and taking care of our physique, especially because “She wants to take care of herself and be in top shape on stage.”
Vergara did not want to go into specific details about this “third circumstance” out of respect for the singer’s privacy, but she made it clear that the obsession with an idealized appearance is one more obstacle in the lives of many women, and even more so in the case of public figures like Isabel Pantoja. “It is true that there is a circumstance, something that she is doing, that is also damaging her health,” she guaranteed.
However, this information was quickly denied by Aurelio Manzano in the same program. According to the journalist, who had just spoken with a producer of Pantoja’s tour, the cancellation was due to specific medical recommendations related to the singer’s inability to travel by plane due to her illness.
