ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: Shakira Opens Up About Raising Her Sons, Whether She's Ready to Date Again & Her World Cup Legacy

I don't have social life.

Like right now, no social life.

I know that I said, se pasa rico soltera, you know, like single women have a lot of fun.

And yeah, it's true, but not so much for me right now because I'm just a busy bee.

There's so much going on.

And I'm preparing for my second tour, my second run in the US.

I'm preparing for my performance at the World Cup, which I'm gonna try not to suck at.

And then I'm also preparing for my European residency, 12 stadiums in Madrid.

So there's a lot going on.

And also my kids' everyday life.

So yeah, right now I don't think there's a lot of fun for me on my path,

but yeah, I'm just enjoying this moment in time and enjoying my career, living it to its maximum.

I've done this professionally 30 years already, and it feels to me like I'm just starting.

It feels, everything feels new always.

I'm as excited as the first day, or more, as passionate or more.

I'm very inspired.

I'm making a lot of new music, a lot of new collaborations, still on tour.

We just did a stadium run in the US, and now I'm coming back.

I'm gonna be performing where most of the games are happening, same cities.

So that's going to be interesting, you know, to have all that footballistic energy,

sports, fans energy kind of brought to my concerts as well.

It's going to be a lot.

I think there's going to be a real synergy there.

I wanted to write something for this World Cup and I knew that it had to have the secret ingredients, the old ingredients that a World Cup song needs.

A great beat, energy, a strong message.

It just happened, you know?

It really flowed.

It was very easy to come up with the melody, with the lyrics, the concept.

And then obviously when I had Burna Boy recorded, that was like the cherry on top.

Maybe I always wanted to do something with Burna, and I think that his boy just takes it to another level.

The song is much more than a World Cup song.

It's a message for every child who's been told that their dream is too big.

And to remind us that every champion started out as a kid one day who perhaps went through hardship and struggles.

But there was someone always behind that child that believed in them.

And that's why they didn't give up.

And that's what we need to do as a society.

We have to do the best we can to offer our kids with opportunities so they can achieve their goals in life.

And that the opportunity, the one, the most valuable one is education.

And that's why this song has been created not only for the World Cup,

but for all of those kids who don't have access to quality education.

And this is a very important World Cup because this one, it's going to serve as a platform for all those kids who don't have a voice, who don't have visibility.

And at this time, when the world is so fractured and divided and the algorithm manipulates us all,

I think it's a good time to come together

and talk about the kids and put them at the center of the debate and make them be the real protagonist here.

It's crazy why I have this connection with football that seems unbreakable.

My history with football goes back to 2006 when I performed at the first World Cup with Wycliffe.

Performed hipstone live.

And then again on 2010, which is when I met the father of my kids who was playing during that World Cup.

That's why I call my kids the Waka kids because they're...

I think they were born because of that song.

That song took me to the World Cup and the World Cup had an important impact in my life.

And they were born.

The best that has happened to me.

And then on 2014, I was pregnant with my little one.

And all of my fans, they saw me perform and they're like, Shakira's pregnant.

And I was like a month pregnant and I was like, two months, Maxima.

But they know me so well.

So every World Cup does something really magical.

And I think this one is gonna be all about bringing people together in this very sensitive moment in time,

socially and politically.

I think motherhood makes you strong.

I feel that the moment I became a mother, I saw life through a different perspective.

They are true teachers, you know?

I learn so much from them every day.

When your world collapses and you have to get up

and pay the bills and still provide for your family and still prepare breakfast and take your kids to school,

life needs to go on, needs to go on, because you have the responsibility to watch after two human beings.

Seeing my kids also overcome those difficulties, that also fills my heart.

And understanding that only through hardship is when you realize who your true friends are.

And when you realize that you do have friends who are there for you through the bad times and the good times,

then you rediscover life.

You see life through a whole different lens, you know?

Life is beautiful in spite of all the pain that we all go through.

Humans, it is what it is.

Like they say, this is life.

Life is a bitch, but it's so worth living it.

I always thought that I was weaker than what life proved me to be.

Through those challenging moments, I discovered how resilient we all are.

And I really, I truly admire so many women that just have to push forward every day, push forward through hardship or through whatever life throws at them.

I think that us women, we just carry a world on our shoulders.

I mean, we rebuilt Europe after the Second World War.

We ruled the world like Piazza says.

and yeah I mean behind every experience in life there's always a lesson

that we learn and we have to be grateful for for all those lessons even for the people

that that leave you with scars because they just make us better

and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger I'm not thinking of future I'm just thinking of raising my kids,

maybe when they're older or something.

I don't know.

Right now I'm just so busy with my career and my life.

Whenever, wherever, we're meant to be together.

I'll be there, you'll be near, and that's the deal, my dear.

I would say to that girl back in her 20s to enjoy more.

I think, like, women, as time goes by, we just acquire this new confidence, you know?

Even though we don't look as perfect as in our 20s, but, like, somehow we accept the way we are, you know?

And accept ourselves more.

At least I've seen that with my friends.

I see that in me.

So all those 20-year-old girls out there who are trying really hard,

just enjoy because it's beautiful to just be yourself and accept who you are.

When I started with the crossover in the US, back then the world was pretty closed up to the idea of Latin artists singing in English.

101

And that was a whole revolution in my life.

102

It was the crossover to the Anglo market.

103

And at that time I had so much to prove.

104

You know, I wanted to show what I was about, what Latinos were about.

105

I had so much to say.

106

And now I still have a lot to say, but I feel more at ease, you know?

107

So those insecurities are gone and now I just have this immense love for what I do.

108

There were a lot of intellectual challenges for me

109

because at the time I really didn't speak English as fluently as I do now, so I had to write my own songs in English,

110

and I used to do it with the rhyming dictionary and a thesaurus and a Bob Dylan book.

111

And yeah, it was a whole different time for artists,

112

for Latin artists, for music in Spanish.

113

And there was no social media.

114

So I had to really talk the talk and walk the walk and fight.

115

I was very perseverant.

116

So I remember that time as a time of challenges, but also amazing achievements.

117

It was a real blessing to travel the world

118

and be in touch with so many different cultures and sort of learn from those cultures too,

119

which is what has shaped me as an artist and as a person that I am today.

120

So that was like kind of the door opening to a new universe for me.

121

I'm on tonight with my hips don't lie And I'm starting to feel you,

122

boy Come on, let's go real slow There were so many gatekeepers in the industry who were like, Oh, no, no, no, no, we're not gonna play that song, Hips Don't Lie.

123

That's gonna be like, uh, that's what I mean.

124

In Barranquilla, se baila, si.

125

Like, I had, I mean, if you think about it, Hips Don't Lie has instruments typical from the Colombian folklore in there, you know?

126

And that was such a big song for me in the US.

127

It broke so many records.

128

But at first, there were so many people who were closed up to the idea of that song, even playing on American radio.

129

And then La Tortura also was one of the first songs that actually played in Spanish on American radio.

130

That was a whole different moment, a whole different era, you know, where Latin artists weren't taken as seriously as they are today.

131

So I had a lot to demonstrate, you know, a lot of convincing to do, but it turned out great.

132

That song was just so good.

133

And I remember us in the studio just like dancing to it

134

and jumping and like celebrating because we knew the hate

135

that we had and I knew

136

that for the people who understood the lyrics they were gonna click also in a different way

137

but it was just pure catharsis you know I really needed to write at

138

that point and write about my feelings and what I was going through and not have any censor, any banning in the lyrics that song so i just went for it

139

and and i think it was very therapeutic i needed it like after after

140

that song came out and i wrote

141

that song i was like i feel lighter you know

142

and i feel like a lot of people a lot of

143

women who have been going through something similar people who are running to in the streets

144

or you know they they were telling me how important

145

that was for them how you know sometimes we just need someone to speak for others

146

or be the voice be the voice of others The human experience thrives on identification.

147

We need to identify with each other.

148

We need to feel that what you're going through is the same that I'm going through, you know, that it's not so different, that we all go through pain and struggle and hardship.

149

And we also have enjoyed the beauty of this life with its ups and downs, you know.

150

It's been the best tour of my entire life.

151

We've broken all the records.

152

We played 14 shows in Mexico City on a stadium.

153

We're going to play another 12 stadiums in Spain.

154

We went to Latin America twice.

155

We're going back to America twice.

156

There's still so much we're going to do.

157

We're going to be playing Egypt, at the pyramids, so many iconic places.

158

I just played in Copacabana in front of two and a half million people.

159

Two and a half million people on the beach.

160

That is insane.

161

It was one of the craziest experiences of my career and also

162

when it's not summer my kids come with me on tour

163

we have a traveling uh house with us like family comes

164

with us their friends come with us uh teachers um and

165

so i think like but they go back to school

166

so it's not like their home school

167

but we build this kind of balance around them their lives

168

and mine that i think is working i don't know how i do it

169

but i'm with them as much as I can even

170

when there's show days like I'm with them in the morning

171

well in the morning they study then we you know have lunch spend the afternoon then I go get ready

172

and then have dinner again put him to sleep

173

when there's no shows you know and

174

so like I always manage to be with him that's why I don't have any social life

175

because I'm like okay my kids the stage my kids the

176

stage you know it's like that's how that's how my life oscillates right now between them and

177

and and my commitments there's just

178

so much exciting stuff going on around this tour this tour

179

has just given me amazing moments on stage of just communion with me between my fans and me

180

that dialogue that doesn't stop between them and me

181

and it's showing me one more time and proving to me one more time

182

that they're the best fans in the world my fans have been there for me through through the thick and thin, through the good and the bad times.

183

They're being family to me.

184

So every time I perform in front of them, I feel I'm surrounded by family.

185

How they defend me, fight for me, accompany me, understand me, forgive my flaws, and just surround me with their love.

186

I just feel that it's all worth it.
