Shakira Shines in Bedazzled Silver Look for Copa America Final Halftime Show
Shakira made a dazzling entrance during the Copa America finals on Sunday in Miami.
The singer, who performed at the soccer tournament’s inaugural halftime show, selected a sparkling silver set consisting of a crystallized halter top and a matching miniskirt. She completed her look with a pair of matching ankle booties, wearing her hip-length honey blond tresses in waves.
Shakira performed a medley of new and old hits, starting her show with “Hips Don’t Lie.” She also sang renditions of her Spanish-language tracks “Te Felicito,” “TQG” and “Puntería.”
After defeating Colombia in the finals, Argentina won the championship тιтle at Copa America for the 16th time. The tournament takes place every four years and features teams solely from South America. 2024 marked the second time that Copa America was hosted in the U.S.
“Shakira is an extraordinary South American star who has dazzled the entire world,” Alejandro Dominguez, president of CONMEBOL, the continental governing body of football in South America, said in a statement. “Her songs are sung and danced to in every corner of the planet, turning her art into a global phenomenon that crosses borders and is enjoyed by millions of people.”
At the Met Gala in May, Shakira gave WWD an exclusive look at her red Carolina Herrera gown. The singer wore a strapless crepe column dress featuring a sculptural cape made of silk gazar.
Referencing the event’s theme, the designer’s team said that “the simplicity of the structured silhouette matched with the grandeur of the cape is a testament to the skill and expertise of the decade-spanning atelier — our very own ‘Garden of Time.’”
