Shakira I Gotta Cancel Another Concert!!!
So much for whenever, wherever ... Shakira is scrapping her third concert in as many nights ... and she says she's devastated.
Shakira was supposed to perform Saturday night at Nationals Park in Washington D.C., but the ballpark announced Friday that Shakira would no longer be taking the stage.

UPDATE
2:50 PM PT -- Attorneys John Harris and Herbert Hayden, who represent Jane Does 1-4 in the current lawsuit, tell TMZ ... "The statement released by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office confirms that charges were not filed against Mr. Robinson due to insufficient evidence—not because the claims lacked merit. This underscores the significant challenges victims face when reporting incidents of sexual assault, particularly when the alleged perpetrator is a powerful and well-known figure."
They continue ... "Moreover, this latest development further affirms that at least five women have now come forward with allegations of sexual assault against Mr. Robinson. Together, they are united in their pursuit of justice."
Prosecutors in Los Angeles are revealing for the first time Smokey Robinson was investigated for an alleged sexual assault back in 2015 ... but the probe did not result in criminal charges.
The L.A. County District Attorney's Office tells TMZ ... they discovered that in 2015 the D.A.'s office was presented with a sexual assault allegation against Smokey, and that the case was kicked up to prosecutors by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
The D.A. says prosecutors ultimately decided not to charge Smokey with a crime due to a lack of evidence.
