There are songs that are more than songs. For Shakira, Waka Waka was the invisible thread that connected two lives — and she acknowledged it out loud, with tears in her eyes. 🥺
In an interview for Caracol TV that went viral, the Colombian singer spoke with a nostalgia we had rarely seen from her. With her voice full of emotion, she recalled how that anthem of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa brought her face to face with Gerard Piqué — the man who would become the father of her children Milan and Sasha. “If it hadn’t been for Waka Waka, I wouldn’t have known the father of my children”, she said, leaving everyone in silence. 💔
Neither time, nor distance, nor the most high-profile separation of recent years has erased that. And although the love ended, what was born from that meeting remains her greatest treasure. 🥺✨
