Shakira looks sensational as she appears on the front cover of GQ magazine following the announcement of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour.
The Hips Don’t Lie hitmaker, 47, told the publication that her latest jaunt will be her “most ambitious yet” and claims she will proverbially be “throwing the house out of the window”.
She told GQ in an interview originally published in Spanish: “It is the most ambitious tour of my entire career, the biggest production I have had so far.
"Not because the public asks for it, but because I deserve it after so many years working in this world. I deserve the tour of my life. I am throwing the house out the window.
"I am happy because I will be able to go through the different stages of my artistic life, up to today. It will be the longest show I have done with the biggest screen and everything as big as you can imagine. More is more and better!"
It looks like she’s off to a flying start already as it has been reported that her tour has broken a recent record set by Taylor Swift.Swift made history when her Eras Tour became the highest-grossing tour ever and the first to surpass $1 billion in revenue, however, Shakira's upcoming world tour has already surpassed this milestone.
She has become the first female artist to sell out five consecutive shows at Mexico City's Estadio GNP Seguros.
The venue, which is the city's second-largest stadium, can accommodate approximately 65,000 gig-goers.
And, due to overwhelming demand for tickets, Shakira has had to delay her North American tour and move her shows to larger stadiums.
The Colombian-born singer-songwriter released her twelfth and latest album titled Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, earlier this year and said writing the record proved therapeutic as it helped her to process the “grief” she experienced following the end of her long-term relationship with Gerard Piqué.
She and the retired professional footballer, with whom she shares sons Milan, 11, and nine-year-old Sasha, were together for 11 years before their acrimonious split in 2022.
The She Wolf singer reflected: "It wasn't easy to recognize all the vulnerability I was feeling at the time I wrote this album, and then to lay it bare.
"For many months after my separation I had been silent, trying to begin my mourning, but I couldn't really begin to grieve until I started writing music. It was my way of healing. And it continues to be.
"Grief is a process that is not linear. It is full of peaks and valleys."
