Pop icon Shakira was forced to cut her performance short at LIV Miami after some fans attempted to film up her dress while she danced on stage. The “Waka Waka” singer was performing her new single Soltera when she noticed the inappropriate behavior in the crowd. Visibly upset, Shakira stopped her dance, pulled down her skirt with both hands, and shook her head in disapproval, as seen in viral videos circulating online. The singer then gestured with her hands to convey her displeasure before abruptly leaving the stage.
Despite her initial attempt to continue performing, the Colombian star made a sudden exit after the incident, where she was greeted by her security team and VIP fans. The online community quickly condemned the behavior, with many expressing disgust and support for Shakira. Social media platforms like X (formerly known as Twitter) were flooded with comments calling out the fans’ actions. One user labeled the crowd’s actions as “pathetic,” while another wrote, “People are GROSS. Shakira leaves the stage after people were filming under her dress whilst she was dancing to her new single. People are GROSS.”
Fans rallied behind the singer, expressing their disappointment in the crowd’s behavior. “That’s just beyond gross. Shakira had every right to walk off, no one should have to deal with that kind of disrespect, especially when she’s just out there performing her music,” one fan wrote. Another added, “People need to learn how to act with basic decency!”
This incident comes only a few months after Shakira opened up about her personal struggles following her high-profile breakup with Spanish soccer star Gerard Piqué. In a June interview with Rolling Stone, Shakira described her heartbreak as feeling “like being stabbed in the chest.” The emotional toll was worsened by public scrutiny, rumors of infidelity, a tax fraud case, and her father’s health issues. Despite the turmoil, Shakira has used her music as an outlet for healing and expression.
