Join Sporting News to learn about Shakira, the famous singer who has appeared at many major football events, most recently the 2024 Copa America final.

What year was Shakira born? What is her relationship with Pique?
Shakira was born on February 2, 1977 in Barranquilla, Colombia. She is a world-famous singer and has won three Grammy Awards. In addition to being known as a singer, Shakira is also famous for her long-term relationship with Gerrard Pique, a former Barcelona defender.

Shakira and Pique met in 2010 when the Barcelona star appeared in the music video for Waka Waka – the official song of the 2010 World Cup performed by the Colombian singer. The two quickly fell in love and went public with their relationship in 2011.

Although not married, the couple has lived together for a long time. Shakira also sacrificed her growing career in the US to move back to Spain to take care of her family. The couple has two sons together, Milan (2013) and Sasha (2015). Shakira and Pique are beautiful symbols of love in the football world.

However, the 11-year relationship between Pique and Shakira ended in 2022 when the Barcelona legend was caught cheating with Clara Chia Marti. Spanish media reported that the pop star discovered Pique’s affair when she noticed her favorite jam (a food Pique never touched) was empty.
