Along with having one of the best voices in the music industry, Shakira has always kept herself fitter than a supermodel. Even after giving birth to two children, the 46-year-old looks as young as ever. After breaking up with Gerard Pique, the Colombian star followed a strict workout routine every single.
That mainly helped the singer stay fit and avoided her from slipping into depression. In recent times, Shakira’s Zumba trainer has come into the limelight.
