Shakira transitioned smoothly from the classic synth-pop of "Las de la Intuición" to the iconic acoustic rock of "Estoy Aquí" from her breakout album Pies Descalzos.
Her rock persona shone as she played a glittering white guitar during a medley of "Empire" and "Inevitable."
She later took over the drums with raw energy on "Can't Remember to Forget You."
"There's nothing like when a she-wolf reunites with her pack," she howled.
Shakira addressed her personal struggles and highlighted female solidarity, quoting writer Isabel Allende: "Women alone are vulnerable, but together we are invincible."
This set the stage for a fiery performance of "Don't Bother" and the reggaeton-fused "La Tortura," where pyrotechnics lit up the venue.

The energy peaked during "Hips Don't Lie," elevated by a surprise appearance from Newark's own Wyclef Jean.
The production wrapped up with a salsa-infused rendition of "Chantaje," mesmerizing belly dancing during "Ojos Así," and an encore featuring a massive inflatable wolf and a shower of custom hundred-dollar bills.
The tour has already set records, becoming the highest-grossing tour of all time by a Latin artist with $421.6 million in ticket sales as of January.
Starting in February 2025 and closing in October with 12 nights at Estadio Shakira in Madrid, the tour underscores her status as the sixth most-streamed artist globally.
Her latest hit "Dai Dai" featuring Burna Boy reached #1 on the Billboard Global 200 and Spotify Daily Global Top Songs.
