Shakira is in a new phase of her life. After her departure to Miami, after more than a decade living in Barcelona with her ex-partner, Gerard Piqué, the one from Barranquilla (Colombia) is totally focused on her two children and her musical career. It has been a year of many successes for the artist: first it was Te Felicito and MonotonÃa, then the Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53 and TQG and, finally, Acrostic. Now everything indicates that the Colombian singer will launch a new project imminently. In the last few hours, she has shared a customized mermaid image that has not gone unnoticed. Neither did her message in the caption.
At the beginning of the year, some previews of one of Shakira’s new songs were leaked, in which she appeared characterized as a siren. Her fans had been wondering where this project was for months… until this Friday, June 9. The Colombian made the official announcement of her project, but she did not give many details or say when it will be available on digital platforms. What she did achieve, is to raise great expectations among her more than 87,100,000 followers on social networks.
In the publication shared by ‘Shak’ from the official profile on Instagram, the interpreter of Suerte and Waka Waka can be seen from behind, but if there is something that attracts attention in all this, it is the mermaid tail. To this is added a long pink hair and in the background rocks on the shore of the beach. “Do you want thingamabobs? I have twenty,” wrote the Colombian. It is an iconic phrase from the movie The Little Mermaid, which appears in the Part of Your World melody, which integrates the ‘soundtrack’.
As we said, it was last February when some information about a new Shakira project leaked. If we stick to what was said then, this new song is about a collaboration with the Colombian Manuel Turizo. The interpreter of La Bachata has declared on previous occasions that he, in fact, had the opportunity to work with ‘Shak’. Said information also pointed out that the song melody will be called Empty Cup. For now, we will have to wait for Sasha and Milan’s mother to reveal more details.
In recent months, other alleged songs by the singer have also been leaked, including those that have already come to light in the past. There are also others that have not yet been released, such as a collaboration with RosalÃa, titled Lejos de mÃ. It was also revealed that her next album would be called Inherent Desire. However, little is known about all this, since the singer has not spoken in respect.
Shakira’s new life in Miami has allowed us to see her at more public events, where she has been surrounded by other recognized faces, both from the world of music and cinema. She has also been seen with Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, with whom it is speculated that she could be in a romantic relationship. However, the Colombian is one hundred percent focused on her musical career, something that she saw slowed down during her last years in Barcelona. Shakira is back and she has done it stronger than ever. Each of her recent releases have been successful, and her next ones are expected to be as well.
