The "She Wolf" is ready to take a bite out of the Big Apple.
Shakira announced she will perform a free pop-up show in New York City’s Times Square on Tuesday night.
“So excited to announce a SURPRISE performance tonight in Times Square LIVE on the @tsxentertainment stage thanks to @vinfastus!” Shakira wrote alongside a video of herself on Instagram. “Join the Wolfpack at 7:15pm ET! 💃💋🐺”
For fans who can’t attend the show in person, a live streaming link is available on YouTube to watch the performance.
The pop-up show follows the release of Shakira’s latest album “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran,” which dropped Friday. The LP, Shakira’s 12th release overall, marks her first studio effort in seven years.
"For a long time I put my career on hold, to be next to (ex-boyfriend) Gerard (Piqué), so he could play football. There was a lot of sacrifice for love,” Shakira recently told The Sunday Times.
Among the 16 tracks on her album, including the Bizarrap collaboration “Bzrp Music Sessions Vol. 53,” Shakira is joined by a parade of guests: Cardi B, Ozuna, Rauw Alejandro, Grupo Frontera, Karol G and Fuerza Regida.
Shakira’s collaboration with Cardi B, opening track “Punteria, is a clear standout on the album, writes USA TODAY music critic Melissa Ruggieri. Over an insistent dancefloor beat, the bilingual song – loosely translated to “takes aim” – shifts between Shakira singing about being captivated even when everything wrong feels right and some trademark spicy rapping from Cardi B.
“Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran”:Shakira has a searing song with Cardi B and it's the best one on her new album
They’re a potent duo, and the song sets the tone for an album that naturally shifts from engaging Latin pulses to piercing ballads, all while celebrating female empowerment.
