Shakira reaffirmed her bond with pop star Danna by inviting her on stage to perform Shak’s hit song “Soltera”. While the younger Mexican singer isn’t featured on the original version of the track, she did appear in the 2024 music video, alongside other big names like Venezuelan content creator and singer Lele Pons, and Dominican star Natti Natasha. Danna, who’s also an actress, made history as the first female artist to join the Colombian superstar on stage during her global Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour.

The two stars exchanged heartfelt messages of love and mutual admiration, while nailing the sensual dance moves that are a signature part of the song’s choreography. “What a beautiful woman, what talent!” Shakira exclaimed as she embraced her colleague. “You were there at the beginning of all this, with ‘Soltera,’ supporting me.” Danna replied, “Shaki, Mexico is your home, Mexico loves you. May they keep welcoming you with this kind of love!”

One of the most emotional moments of the night came during a segment the Colombian star dedicated to Mexico, where she pleasantly surprised the crowd by singing traditional Mexican music. Backed by the mariachi group Gama Mil, Shakira paid tribute to her father, William Mebarak Chadid, by performing “Sombras Nada Más,” a song made famous by the legendary ranchera singer Javier Solís.

“This is dedicated to my dad, who would be so proud to see me singing this tonight,” Shakira said.

During the second leg of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour across Latin America, Shakira took some time to revisit a few of the most iconic songs from her legendary album Pies Descalzos, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. This was the album that catapulted the Colombian star to fame across Latin America — but especially in Mexico, where she was warmly embraced as a young singer-songwriter with long, dark hair who captivated audiences with her pop-rock sound and heartfelt lyrics. Among the highlights of the night were classics from that album: “Estoy Aquí,” “Antología” and “Pies Descalzos, Sueños Blancos.”

For the second leg of her tour, the Colombian artist has made some tweaks to her repertoire, taking out a few songs and adding others. This time around, the setlist includes “Día de Enero,” which she performed during her show in Tijuana on Aug. 11 after years of not singing it, along with “Si Te Vas,” “Pies Descalzos, Sueños Blancos,” and “(Entre Paréntesis).” Meanwhile, the songs that were dropped from the list are “Poem to a Horse,” “Loca,” “Cómo Dónde y Cuándo” and “Te Aviso, Te Anuncio.”

The outfits Shakira is rocking on this leg of her tour have gone through a few updates. For example, the bodysuit she wears under her crystal-embroidered jumpsuit at the start of the show — originally inspired by vintage Versace swimwear — has switched colors, going from pink to purple.

Another standout is the outfit she wears during the Mexican segment of her show. Shakira goes full cowgirl with a norteña-styled look, complete with a cowboy hat, silver pants, and a matching fringe jacket by Mexican designer Verónica Solís. The ensemble is full of Mexican-inspired details, including hand-painted images of the Virgin of Guadalupe — who holds a special place in the culture and religious life of many Mexicans and Mexican Americans — and traditional “Milagrito” charms (Mexican hearts).
