Shakira Heats Up the 2023 Latin Grammy Awards Red Carpet in a Daring Black and Gold Look

The Colombian singer earned seven nominations at this year’s ceremony, including three for song of the year

Shakira is heating up the 2023 Latin Grammy Awards red carpet.

The Colombian singer walked the carpet in a dramatic black and gold two-piece set by Harris Reed. The structured corset top appeared like a breastplate made of gold and stood out from the black velvet skirt. In juxtaposition, the softness of the skirt flowed behind her into a train.

It wouldn’t be a Shakira look, though, if she wasn’t showing off her curves. Not only did the musician offer peeks of her hips (that don’t lie), but her skirt also featured a mᴀssive slit that showed her legs and her platform heels.

She wore her hair down and in waves and kept her accessories minimal

The “Whenever, Wherever” singer earned seven nominations at this year’s ceremony, including record of the year and song of the year — a category she dominates with three nods. Shakira is a 12-time Latin Grammy Award winner, including the Latin Recording Academy person of the year award she won in 2011.

Shakira will also perform at the award ceremony, along with artists like Rosalía and Maluma.

The night’s other nominees include Christina Aguilera, Bad Bunny and songwriter/producer Édgar Barrera, who leads in nominations at 12 nods.

Shakira recently opened up about the importance of her fans in an interview with Spotify’s For the Record podcast.

“The role that my fans have played in my career is impossible to quantify,” the singer said. “They’ve known how to understand me better than anybody, and they’ve carried me to where I am today with their unwavering support.”

She went on to say she is proud to represent Colombian women in a male-dominated industry.

“The way Colombia has served as inspiration for my career as an artist is immeasurable. Colombia is a never-ending source of inspiration: for colors, culture, sounds, stories, folklore, and food. It’s such a rich culture and I’m so grateful to have been raised where I was and have it be my lifelong muse.”

The 2023 Latin Grammy Awards will air on Univision in the U.S. and Radio Televisión Española in Spain, live from the Conference and Exhibition Center (FIBES) in Sevilla, Spain, on Nov. 16.
