Shakira faced criticism from fans for allegedly lip-syncing during her performance at the Copacabana Beach concert in front of approximately two million attendees. Videos from the show, where she delivered nearly 30 songs, circulated widely on social media platforms like Twitter, with viewers noting discrepancies between her vocals and the audio.
Some spectators expressed disappointment, with one fan remarking on the lack of authenticity in her lip-syncing. Another described the performance as chaotic, while a third criticized her vocal delivery.
The Colombian artist staged a remarkable free performance on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, drawing comparisons to concerts by popular artists Lady Gaga and Madonna in recent years. Her setlist included hits like Hips Don’t Lie, La Tortura, Whenever Wherever, and She Wolf, accompanied by a stunning drone display.
Despite the concert being free, Shakira’s appearance is estimated to have generated around $150 million in tourism revenue for Rio de Janeiro, as the city invested in the event to boost its local economy.
Earlier in the year, Shakira encountered a mishap during a live show when she stumbled and fell while performing Si Te Vas. Despite the fall, she quickly recovered and continued the performance, earning praise from fans for her resilience and professionalism.
Reassuring her concerned followers, Shakira took to Instagram the next day, jokingly referring to herself as resilient and emphasizing that everyone is prone to falls. The incident occurred during a stop on her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, which means ‘Women No Longer Cry’ in English, continuing through April.
