Shakira has been ‘reborn as a woman’ after a difficult two years
Pop star Shakira feels as if she has been “reborn as a woman” after splitting from Gerard Pique and releasing her new album ‘Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran’.

Nearly seven years since her last US tour, Shakira and her famous hips returned with a massive spectacle.
Where her last tour played arenas, her already record-breaking Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour (which translates to Women No Longer Cry) is primarily playing stadiums, including her first stop at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina May 13.
The show was the first time a Latin female solo performer headlined a stadium gig in the city, and it’s one of several to mark that distinction on her 23-date North American run.
The tour already circled South America since February and the North Carolina opener was the first time Shakira, 48, hit the stage since a mid-April show in her Colombian homeland.
She recently told USA TODAY she was tweaking her setlist and she held to that promise, swapping “Poem to a Horse” and the combo of “Ciega, Sordomuda” / “El Jefe” for “Underneath Your Clothes” and “Objection (Tango).”
Her 13 costume changes included a sheer red bodysuit, a belly-baring two-piece and a short silver dress that she shook while gliding down a lengthy catwalk.
While the first US tour date included special appearances from Wyclef Jean and Alejandro Sanz, Shakira has also shared that friend Rauw Alejandro will join her May 16 in East Rutherford, New Jersey, while it’s possible Alejandro and Jean will return as well.
Here are the songs performed on the first night of her US tour.
