Shakira talks about her disappointments at the Billboard Women Awards


His year 2022 was contrasted, between a break with Gérard Piqué and unprecedented success for his title 53.

Honored “Woman of the Year” at the first gala of the “Billboard Latin Women in Music Awards”, Saturday, May 6, she gave herself up on her personal struggles and her emancipation.

Doing something with pain: this is the saying of many artists since time immemorial.

Colombian singer Shakira, who lived through her “darkest hours” in 2022, also doesn’t regret putting all her pain and anger on paper.

After twelve years of living together with the father of her children, Gérard Piqué, Shakira left the latter following suspicions of infidelity (which will be confirmed later).

In February 2023, the result will be a settlement song called BZRP Music Sessions #53. , already one of the most popular songs of his career, holding the record for the number of views on Youtube.

“It has been a year of change in my life where I felt more than ever and very personally what it is to be a woman,” she said on Saturday, May 6, on the stage of the Billboard Latin Music Awards, which honored her as “Woman of the Year”.

“It’s been a year since I realized that we women are stronger than we think, more courageous than we thought, more independent than we were taught to be,” she added, grabbing her trophy.

“The desire to be authentic”

Waka Waka’s interpreter couldn’t help but reflect on his desire for love and tenderness, taking his relationship with Gérard Piqué as a backdrop.

“What woman didn’t forget herself because she was looking for someone else’s attention and love?” she asked, before continuing:

‘However, there comes a time in each woman’s life when she no longer depends on the other to love and accept herself as she is.

A time when the search for the other is replaced by the search for self.

A time when the desire to be perfect is replaced by the desire to be authentic, and when finding someone faithful is less important than being faithful to oneself.”

A theme that the singer has mentioned many times in her titles, but also in those of the artists for whom she wrote.

“These are the lessons I learned from other women, and I wrote for them, and sang them.

Because only a woman can love until she is torn apart; can speak with the most brutal honesty; can sing with anger; can dance in ecstasy and cry with emotion.

Only a woman can do that,” Shakira said.
