The fans genuinely believe that Shakira is one of the best music artists of this generation. The Latin American star has composed multiple record-breaking and jaw-dropping singles over the years. One of her masterpieces is also her performance at the Super Bowl back in 2020 with Jennifer Lopez. Rihanna was supposed to feature in the Super Bowl LVII during the halftime show. The Barbadian singer had previously not done a live performance for quite a few years before today’s halftime show.

The majority of the fans cannot stop calling both of the legendary artists ‘queens’ and ‘mothers’. Over the years, both of them have become role models to millions of people in the world. Young girls tend to get inspired by their songs and demeanor. A few fans also brought up the entire Gerard Pique controversy again. It seems like the fans will forever be upset about their breakup. Some fans also demanded both of them collaborate once again. Shakira and Rihanna had come together in 2014.

Amongst this, Rihanna also indirectly confirmed her second pregnancy after she kept touching her stomach after singing the lyrics ‘life’ and ‘alive’. Her minor baby bump was also quite clearly visible when she stepped onto the stage.
The two of them went on to create one of the best singles of all time. The song was called ‘Can’t Remember to Forget You’ and the Colombian star managed to feature at #15 on Billboard’s Hot 100.
The fans will never forget their collab in 2014!
Quite a few fans hoped that Shakira would make a surprise entry at the Super Bowl LVII’s halftime show. However, that wasn’t meant to be, at least for this edition. Shakira has been in the public eye for quite a bit. But 2014 was one of the most pivotal years of Shakira’s career. After her back-to-back hits at the FIFA World Cup in 2010, the Latin Pop star needed another record-breaking single that would help cement her legacy in the music industry with the greats.

The Colombian star went on to release her collaboration with Rihanna and the rest was history. That song also acted as a catalyst and helped her stay relevant. The Latin American star also then went on to compose many other albums that turned out to be world-famous too. She topped her career’s achievement list after she shared the Superbowl Halftime show stage with Jennifer Lopez back in 2020.
