Shakira revealed that her niece designed this set of sweatshirts. The design includes a hand-drawn and animated version of the singer in the middle along with a few of her favorite lines from the diss track. The line portrayed is, “Women don’t cry, women pay their bills”. Honestly, it seems like she has also tried to stray away from the controversy this time.
This sweatshirt doesn’t directly imply that it is from the diss track controversy. It could also act as a separate empowering sweatshirt for women all by itself. The Grammy Award winner asked for a mere $60 to buy the limited edition clothing. To everyone’s surprise, the fans swiped out every sweatshirt from the rack in the first five hours from its release.
However, this wasn’t the first time Shakira gave her fans a glimpse of the sweatshirt.
Shakira could release many more designs from the diss track
Shakira has a meaningful bond with her fans. The fans proved their love for her on her birthday this year. A few weeks ago, the Colombian star had a chat with a few of her fans from her balcony. The fans noticed that the Grammy Award winner was wearing a sweatshirt with the lyrics of the diss track on it. Without a doubt, this caused an immediate frenzy in the fanbase.

However, the fans believe that Shakira can also release many more sweatshirts in the coming weeks. This is mainly because her diss track has more than one iconic line. The fans will never forget the line that translates to, “You traded in a Ferrari for a Twingo. You traded in a Rolex for a Casio”. It remains to be seen if the Latin American star releases more versions of her merchandise as per her fan’s demands.
