These words confirm the essential role her children played in supporting her emotionally during the most difficult periods she has experienced, both personally and professionally.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Success is a great reward</span> </h3><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1536/864;" src="https://cdn.sbisiali.com/news/images/3d41f592-851d-4d1a-b4cf-f1b936fc93d5.jpg" ></figure><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Shakira, on the other hand, expressed her happiness at the popular success, which she described as a "great reward" for the effort and continuous work that went into meticulous preparation for these amazing performances over more than a year. </p><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1080/1080;" src="https://cdn.sbisiali.com/news/images/9762a6b9-d84e-4564-80ce-f7e1db5563d6.jpeg" ></figure><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> It is noteworthy that Shakira's tour witnessed the performance of 64 sold-out shows in North and South America, attracting an audience of more than two million people, confirming the unique position that Shakira enjoys in the hearts of millions.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h4 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:hsl(187, 48%, 51%);">Shakira's painful journey</span> </h4><figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1200/900;" src="https://cdn.sbisiali.com/news/images/7c39fb96-9084-4ee1-9da1-9c4dc74c60ad.jpg" ></figure><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The past few years have not been easy for Shakira. After a 12-year relationship, she officially split from Spanish football star Gerard Piqué in June 2022, a heartbreak that shook the artistic and media communities. But as usual, she turned this pain into a source of artistic creativity.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Her new album, "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" (Women Don't Cry Anymore), is a mirror that reflects the series of crises she has been through, starting with the breakdown of her relationship with Piqué, through a serious health problem that her father suffered, and ending with her being accused of tax evasion in Spain, a case that ended in an out-of-court settlement. Despite all these difficulties, Shakira did not give up, but rather resisted and transformed the pain into touching artistic stories.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The most notable of these works was "BZRP Music Sessions Vol. 53," in which she sent clear messages to Piqué and his new girlfriend. This song was not merely an expression of her feelings, but also achieved resounding global success, winning the "Song of the Year" award at the Latin Grammy Awards, proving that art has the power to transform bitter experiences into dazzling victories.</p>
