Shakira’s Sons Milan & Sasha Make Rare Red Carpet Appearance

Originally appeared on E! Online

Shakira is making sweet family memories with her boys whenever, wherever—and that includes on the red carpet.

The “Hips Don’t Lie” singer, 48, turned the Zootopia 2 premiere in Los Angeles Nov. 13 into a twinning moment with her sons Milan, 12, and Sasha, 10, whom she shares with her ex Gerard Piqué, in stunning lavender ensembles.

Shakira—who voices Gazelle in the movie—rocked the purple hue in a high-necked long-sleeved gown and matching heels, while her boys complemented her in matching suits and bow ties.

Of course, Shakira’s sons have proven to be her go-to dates for all her major milestones, including joining her at the 2025 Grammys in February, cheering the “Whenever, Wherever” singer on as she took home the win for Best Latin Pop Album

“I want to share this award with my kids, Milan and Sasha, who are here with me,” Shakira said in her speech after Jennifer Lopez presented her with the award. “I’m so proud of you guys, of your kind hearts.”

Milan and Sasha sweetly blew kisses at their mom from the audience—while of course, coordinating once again in metallic silver suit jackets—as the singer added, “Thank you so much for supporting me the way you do. I love you.”

Shakira has echoed her appreciation for her boys time and time again, and even penned her 2023 song Acróstico about them. The pair even appears in her music video for the song, where they play piano and sing alongside their mom. Sometimes, they even get to accompany her on stage, as was the case at her June concert in Miami.

“My heart melts every time I see them on that screen and I hear their little voices,” she told the BBC during a backstage interview at the time.

“They’re just everything to me. They’re my engine and the reason why I’m alive. So having them every night on stage, it’s just such a precious moment.”

And she hopes her work ethic is something her sons will learn from her as they’ve grown up watching all that goes into her career.

“The biggest lesson that they probably can learn from me is how hard I work and that nothing comes easy,” Shakira told Entertainment Tonight at the 2025 Grammys. “Everything is the result of discipline and commitment and that’s one of the things I want to teach them.”

She continued, “I think that they’re being a witness to all of this, all the hard work that me and my team invest into each one of our projects and tonight for the Grammys is not the exception.”
