Global superstar Shakira captivated football fans with an electrifying performance during the Copa América™️ final at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. The 14-time Latin GRAMMY® winner made history by headlining the first-ever halftime musical performance during a final match, contested between Argentina and Colombia.

A Historic Performance

Shakira's performance at the Copa América™️ final was a groundbreaking moment. Her 7.5-minute show featured some of her biggest hits, starting with the iconic "Hips Don’t Lie," followed by "Te Felicito," "TQG," and "Puntería." With a team of 12 dancers, she delivered a spectacle that left the audience in awe.

Musical Presence Throughout the Tournament

Shakira's influence extended beyond the final match. Her song "Puntería," a collaboration with Cardi B, was the official song for TelevisaUnivision's coverage of Copa América™️ CONMEBOL 2024 in the United States. This track added to the excitement of the tournament, energizing fans and enhancing the viewing experience.

A Record of Iconic Performances

Shakira's appearance at Copa América 2024 adds to her impressive record of performing at major global football events. She has performed at the FIFA World Cup finals three times and the NFL Super Bowl. Notably, she performed "Hips Don’t Lie" at the Germany 2006 World Cup, "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" at South Africa 2010, and "La La La" at Brazil 2014. Her 2020 Super Bowl LIV Pepsi Halftime Show with Jennifer Lopez remains unforgettable.

2024: A Milestone Year

This year has been remarkable for Shakira. Alongside her historic Copa América performance, she celebrated the release of her new album, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, which has become one of the most streamed records of the year. She is set to embark on a world tour with 17 concerts across the United States, beginning on November 2 in Palm Desert, California.
