How Shakira is staying forever young at 46: from the MTV VMAs winner’s fitness routine including dancing, to her vigilant skincare regime and diet – and her dismissal of plastic surgery claims

After being in the biz for over 30 years, it seems like she hasn’t aged a day. A pic of her in her early 20s could pᴀss off as a pH๏τo of her now, at 46. And it’s not just her looks that keep her youthful, but her high energy too.

Recently at the MTV VMAs, where she won big alongside fellow pop icon Taylor Swift, the “Hips Don’t Lie” songstress put on an incredible show that involved dancing with knives, twisting through a fake cave and crowd-surfing her way towards accepting her Vanguard Award.
