During โher November 28th concert at โขthe Nemesio Camacho El Campรญn Stadium โin Bogotรก, Dua Lipa โdelivered a memorable moment โขby paying โขtribute to Shakira.Midway through her performance, the British-Albanian singer paused her set to address the audience in Spanish.
With โdimmed โคstage lights and images projected on the venue’sโ screens, Lipa explained the significance of the upcoming song. “Today โฃI want to sing a song that I don’t sing very much,but โขit’sโข by anโฃ artistโค that โฃinspires me a lot. His music,โฃ through time and the way it has touched so many minds and hearts around the โขworldโฆ” she said, โprompting an eager reaction from the โcrowd recognizing the reference to the Barranquilla-born star.
Lipa, who hasโข previously expressed her recognition for Latin music, โคthen requested the audience’s participation, acknowledging the song’s importance to the local culture.”I thinkโค you all can definitely help me sing the next song.If you โคknowโฃ it,โค this is for you,” she added before the opening guitar chords rang out.
Theโค song she chose was “Antologรญa,” a ballad from Shakira’s debut album, pies Descalzos. This selection โresonated deeply with the Bogotรก audience. In contrast to the show’s more elaborate, electronic segments, the acoustic performance allowed attendees to singโฃ along with Lipa, who performedโ the spanish lyrics while seated at the microphone.
The gesture was widely interpreted as a sign of respect forโ Colombian culture and for Shakira’s enduring legacy as a national icon. While โLipa continued with her regular setlist after theโ tribute,the moment dedicated to Shakira proved to be the highlight of theโข concert,fostering a strong connection โbetween the artist andโข her Bogotรก fans.
