"Marc Anthony had to postpone his concert in Panama last night due to an accident on some stairs when he was preparing to appear on stage," the team said. "The mishap caused complications in his back, which prevented him from performing live."

Anthony has returned to Miami, Fla., "to be treated by his specialists."

"We thank all the medical personnel in Panama who immediately gathered to offer their care and all the fans who were present for the long-awaited concert," the singer's team said.

Hola! said Magic Dream, the company that organized the concert, will announce a new date for the show soon.
