The 49-year-old hitmaker was flanked on one side by Sasha, 11; the other Milan, 13.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We can see clearly whom Sasha was rooting for. The young man, who bears a striking resemblance to his famous mom, was sporting a light blue and white Argentina jersey. As for Milan, we couldn\u2019t tell which country he was supporting that night. Because the teen was very politically rocking a white-collared shirt by Nude Project, a trendy fashion label founded by two college students in Madrid in 2019.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It\u2019s not surprising these kids are into soccer; their DNA\u2019s wired that way. Dad is Shakira\u2019s ex partner, retired Spanish footballer Gerard Pique, 39.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Shakira is also a cool mom in the music world with strong ties to the World Cup. Her name basically will forever be tied to the iconic global tournament after being involved in the entertainment side of it for 20 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Colombiana\u2019s first World Cup outing was in 2006 when she and reggae king Wyclef Jean stunned the crowd with \u201cHips Don\u2019t Lie\u201d in the halftime ceremony in Berlin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Four years later, Shakira debuted \u201cWaka-Waka\u201d during the opening ceremony in Johannesburg, when fate soon intervened and she met Pique. The then FC Barcelona center back was a starter with his national team, which ended up winning the whole thing against the Netherlands in OT 1-0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThat song took me to the World Cup and the World Cup had an important impact in my life,\u201d Shakira recently<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/shakira-world-cup-history-2026-11998054\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:told People,;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;told People,&quot;}\" class=\"link \"> told People,<\/a> joking that she calls Sasha and Milan her \u201cWaka kids.\u201d \u201cThey were born \u2014 the best thing that has happened to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In 2014, when Brazil had World Cup honors, Shakira and funk\/R&amp;B star Carlinhos Brown closed out the festivities with \u201cLa La La\u201d at Maracan\u00e3 Stadium in Rio de Janeiro. The Grammy winner happened to be dealing with another milestone: a baby bump with Sasha.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cMy fans, all of my fans, they saw me perform, and they\u2019re like, \u2018Shakira\u2019s pregnant,\u2019\u201d she told the celebrity outlet. \u201cAnd I was like a month pregnant. I was like two months maximum, but they know me so well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Finally, this year, the now single mom dropped the official FIFA anthem, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.miamiherald.com\/miami-com\/miami-com-news\/article315756282.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:\u201cDai Dai.;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;\u201cDai Dai.&quot;}\" class=\"link \">\u201cDai Dai.<\/a>\u201d Meaning \u201cGo, Go!\u201d in Italian, the infectious Afrobeats-meets-Latin track is a collab with Nigerian artist Burna Boy. Look for Shak to belt it out as co-headliner (with Madonna and BTS) at the first-ever World Cup Final halftime show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on July 19.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">She\u2019s more than ready to take the grand stage yet again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cEvery World Cup is something really magical,\u201d Shakira said in the interview. \u201cAnd I think this one is going to be all about bringing people together in this very sensitive moment in time, socially and politically.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shakira turned Friday\u2019s electrifying World Cup match at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens into a family affair.
