The talented Colombian artist is bestowed with a prestigious accolade at the renowned Billboard’s Women in Latin Music Awards held in the vibrant city of Miami.
Shakira, amidst a challenging time in her personal life, is currently reveling in a delightful chapter of her professional career. Over the weekend, this talented Colombian icon was honored with the prestigious Woman of the Year award at the esteemed Billboard’s Women in Latin Music Awards. The event took place at the vibrant Watsco Center in Miami – a city that Shakira now proudly calls home, alongside her beloved children.
Gerard Pique’s former partner was honored by Maluma and captivated the public with her remarkable speech.
“At a certain point in a woman’s journey, she reaches a stage where her happiness no longer hinges on finding someone to love or validate her true self,” she expressed.
“The pursuit of another person is substituted with the pursuit of self-discovery, where the aspiration for flawlessness gives way to embracing one’s genuine essence.”
Shakira has become a symbol of female empowerment, which has garnered immense praise at the Watsco Center. She expressed her profound realization this year that women possess an inner strength far beyond what society perceives.
“We possess an inherent courage that often goes unnoticed, and I believe we possess a greater sense of self-reliance than society may lead us to believe. It is not uncommon for women to find themselves seeking validation, love, or acceptance from others, while inadvertently neglecting their own needs. I have personally been a victim of this tendency.”
