Shakira has surprised the world once again because after a short break in her career, she has returned with strength. She hasn't rested because she has participated in the Met Gala 2025 and celebrated the 20 years of Hips Don’t Lie. She has accompanied her children, Milan and Sasha, at the premiere of their first song and now, she has returned to her concerts again, this time in U.S. territory.
The North American tour has begun and has brought with it mixed emotions. The Colombian star has made significant changes to her show. Some fans have celebrated them while others, not so much.
Her show in Charlotte, North Carolina, has been historic. Shakira rehearsed days before, has been focused, and has given it her all. Although, as in Latin America, she had a small technical mishap because the sound failed and fifty thousand attendees were uncomfortable, but Shakira knew how to overcome it.
Shakira no longer sings the songs she wrote about Gerard Piqué
Shakira has charmed, has excelled, and some media have even talked about a "legendary" performance. One of the most talked-about twists has been her repertoire. Shakira has added songs in English.
Underneath Your Clothes has been one of them and she has never sung it on this tour before because it doesn't have a Spanish version and now it's part of the setlist. Many have applauded her while others have complained. Fans from Latin America have expressed their disappointment because they haven't heard it in their cities.
But the most shocking part came afterward because her most controversial songs have disappeared. Entre Paréntesis, El Jefe, and Puntería no longer play. The songs that contained direct jabs at Gerard Piqué have been removed.
The decision has been clear, Shakira has chosen to leave that stage behind. She hasn't wanted to keep fueling the controversy. She has preferred to move forward.
Gerard Piqué is left speechless after the decision Shakira has made
Gerard Piqué hasn't said anything, hasn't spoken out. He has remained silent, but many believe that this time, he is happy. Maybe Piqué feels relieved because the musical war seems to have ceased or the relationship between them seems to have improved, all for the sake of their children.
Shakira has shown maturity, has surprised, has set a new course in her career, and has made a decision that no one expected.
A strong decision. "La loba" has changed her roar and Piqué, simply, hasn't known what to say.
