Shakira Walks Off Stage After Fan’s Inappropriate Filming Attempt During Miami Performance

Pop sensation Shakira abruptly left the stage mid-performance last night at LIV Miami after a fan allegedly tried to film up her mini dress.

Fans watching the incident unfold online expressed outrage at the fan’s behaviour. Comments on social media platform X criticised the disrespect shown to the artist.

“Respect isn’t optional, folks!” one person posted. Others echoed similar sentiments, highlighting that artists should feel safe while performing.

Her life, including her 11-year relationship with former Barcelona footballer Gerard Piqué, has often been in the spotlight.

Earlier this year, Shakira opened up about how her relationship with Piqué hampered her music career. During an appearance on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’, she stated, “Now I’m husbandless… I can actually work.”

Her latest album includes references to her breakup, notably in the song ‘Ultima’, which she described as her final piece addressing the end of their relationship.
