In a recent interview with the Sunday Times, Shakira spoke about her upcoming Spanish-language album, “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran.” The album was released on Friday, March 22, 2024.
The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter revealed that the album’s themes were quite strong. They revolved around the transformation of pain into creativity, frustration into productivity, anger into passion, and vulnerability into resilience.
Shakira went on to explain that the album was inspired by one of her life experiences. It was a difficult period in her life where she had to pick up the pieces and rebuild herself.
“There were so many pieces of my life that crumbled in front of my eyes, and I had to rebuild myself in a way, picking up the bones from the floor and putting them all together,” she said.
Shakira and soccer player, Gerard Piqué ended their 11-year romance in 2022. The former couple share two sons together, Milan (now 11) and Sasha (now 9).
Their love story began in 2010 on the set of Shakira’s music video “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” which became the official song for the World Cup. Piqué appeared in the video, sparking their connection that year.
