3 Jun
Summary
- Shakira's world tour is her highest-grossing Hispanic tour ever.
- She is co-headlining the first-ever World Cup halftime show.
- Her new single's royalties will support global children's education.
Shakira, a global music icon, is currently on her record-breaking "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" World Tour, which has become the highest-grossing Hispanic tour of all time. She is also set to co-headline the first-ever World Cup halftime show on July 19 at MetLife Stadium, marking a significant milestone.
Recently, Shakira achieved a major legal victory when a Spanish court cleared her of tax fraud charges from 2011. This ruling overturned a previous fine, allowing her to reclaim a substantial amount. Her resilience was also evident following her split from Gerard Piqué, inspiring her music and connecting with fans worldwide.
Further solidifying her connection to the sport, Shakira's new single "Dai Dai" is the official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. All proceeds from the track will benefit the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, providing educational access to children globally. This initiative reflects her commitment to empowering young dreamers.
Looking back, Shakira advises her younger self to enjoy more and believe in herself, recognizing the self-assurance gained with age. She has sold over 95 million records, cementing her status as the best-selling female Latin artist and a pioneer for contemporary stars.
