Yeah Shakira If he set his mind to it, he could make the definitive self-help manual: how to turn a personal disaster into a boost for your life and career. This is more or less what happened with the Colombian singer, who two years after her divorce from Gerard Piqué live a personal moment full of calm while His career skyrockets with more concerts, more successes… and more money. Because, as their song says, “women make money.”
The Colombian singer has just done something unusual in the world of entertainment. If a few months ago Jennifer Lopez was forced to suspend her tour in the middle of the separation process from Ben Affleck and with rumors of poor ticket sales, what Shakira It is precisely the opposite. There is massive demand.
It turns out that hundreds of thousands of American fans They were truly looking forward to the arrival of the Colombian to their city. It was for next November when her tour of the country was scheduled to begin, but Shakira has decided to suspend the concerts. Or rather postpone them. The reason: the demand has overwhelmed them.
Exceeded the most optimistic expectations
«To my dear fans I want to thank you for the extraordinary support you have given me since the announcement of my tour, which you are already turning into lthe most important thing of my career until now,” the statement from Gerard Piqué’s ex began on her Instagram.
«As Live Nation has communicated, my production has grown to such a magnitude, as well as the demand for tickets and more shows, that it has exceeded the most optimistic expectations. So much so that North American tour now requires stadiums and more datesin order to reach more of you, which is why it has been moved to May 2025. This Monday the new dates will be announced,” he explained. Simply amazing.
«Thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me at this moment in my career. I know that many of you have made great efforts to be part of these concerts. His understanding and affection They mean a lot to me and help me continue breaking barriers. I look forward to celebrating together. I promise to give you all of me and offer you the most special show of my life. The one they deserve! With all my love and gratitude, Shakira,” the statement concludes.
How to improve a heritage of 400 million
These are curious times for music. While the debate continues over whether the business of selling records and songs is over for good, more and more fans are willing to pay astronomical sums of money to see their favorite artists. Never have so many concerts been held in large stadiums as now and so much money has never been made from touring. A good example is Taylor Swift and Shakira herself may soon be the same.
That tortuous divorce from Gerard Piqué is far behind the Colombian. But he did what few thought: he took advantage of it to his advantage with enormous intelligence. He did it with what some defined – in an enormously hyperbolic and hardly rigorous way – as “protest songs.” At 47 years old, Shakira not only knew how to adapt to new musical trends, but also present herself as ora champion of resilience. He did it with lyrics full of personal exposition. quite a bomb
‘Women No Longer Cry’ sold millions and achieved record ticket sales for their tour in South America. It took between one and nine hours to sell out all of his tickets for each of his shows in February and March in countries such as Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Chile and Peru. And now she is forced to postpone her tour of the United States to add more dates and seats at prices between $70 and $350. What I said: more concerts, more hits and more money to add to that stratospheric net worth of 400 million dollars that he has, according to Celebrity Network.
