Colombian superstar Shakira is making headlines once again as she prepares for two highly anticipated concerts in Medellín on April 12 and 13, 2025. This marks her first performance in the city in nearly three decades, following the cancellation of her original concert due to technical issues. The shows, part of her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” world tour, promise to be monumental events, featuring a state-of-the-art stage setup and a setlist that includes both classic hits and new collaborations.
Fans are buzzing with excitement over potential surprise guests, with rumors circulating that fellow Colombian artists Maluma and Karol G will join her on stage. This collaboration would mark the first time these artists perform together, making it a historic moment for the Colombian music scene. While the specific details of their appearances remain unconfirmed, anticipation is high for what Shakira might unveil during these concerts.
The logistical preparations for the Medellín shows are impressive, with around 2,000 crew members involved in the setup, which includes a massive 47-meter-wide screen and an elaborate stage design. The concerts are expected to last approximately two and a half hours, featuring dynamic choreography, costume changes, and special effects.
In addition to her concert preparations, Shakira is set to return to the Met Gala on May 5, 2025. After making a stunning debut at last year’s event, she will grace the red carpet again, reinforcing her status as a global icon in both music and fashion. This year’s Met Gala theme, “Super Fine Taylor in Black Style,” focuses on elegance and the influence of black style in fashion, with an impressive lineup of co-hosts, including Lewis Hamilton and Colman Domingo.
As excitement builds for both her Medellín concerts and her Met Gala appearance, Shakira continues to capture the spotlight, not just as a musical powerhouse, but as a style icon. Fans around the world are eagerly awaiting what surprises and performances she has in store.
