Global music icon Shakira stole the spotlight at the Latin Grammys, not only for her stellar performance but also for her subtle references to her ex-partner Gerard Piqué during the award acceptance moments. Attending the event with her two sons, Milan and Sasha, the Colombian singer turned heads and took home three prestigious awards, creating a memorable night for herself and her fans.
Shakira, who recently parted ways with soccer star Gerard Piqué after a 12-year relationship, gracefully accepted three Latin Grammy awards. The Best Pop Song and Best Urban Interpretation awards were presented to her by none other than Piqué’s Spanish teammate, Sergio Ramos. In her acceptance speech, Shakira candidly acknowledged the “difficult moments” in her life, subtly referencing the challenges she has faced, both personally and professionally.
Heartfelt Appreciation for the Spanish Public:
During her speech, the 46-year-old songstress expressed gratitude to her Spanish fans, saying, “I want to share this with my Spanish public. You have been there accompanying me through the good and the bad, in difficult moments.” This heartfelt acknowledgment resonated with her audience, showcasing the deep connection she shares with her supporters.
After accepting the awards, Shakira left the stage and joined her two sons, Milan and Sasha, who were there to witness their mother’s triumph. The touching moment was sealed with a sweet kiss on the cheek from her sons, emphasizing the importance of family support in Shakira’s life.
Shakira’s success at the Latin Grammys extended beyond sentiment, as she clinched three awards in total. In addition to the previously mentioned accolades, she also secured the Best Song of the Year for “Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53,” a collaborative track released in collaboration with record producer Bizarrap in January.
Not only did Shakira dominate the stage, but she also dazzled on the red carpet. With seven nominations across four categories, the singer showcased her impeccable style in a black and gold gown paired with gold platform heels. Later in the evening, she underwent a wardrobe change, stunning attendees in an emerald green gown adorned with intricate cutouts.
Shakira’s triumphant night at the Latin Grammys not only highlighted her musical prowess but also showcased her resilience and grace in the face of personal challenges. Through subtle nods to her past and expressions of gratitude, the global sensation proved once again that she is a force to be reckoned with, both on and off the stage.
