Shakira and the World Cup: 20 Years of Dominating Football’s Biggest Stage.

When it comes to FIFA World Cup performances, one name keeps showing up and raising the bar every single time Shakira.

● 2006 FIFA World Cup (Germany)
🎵 Hips Don’t Lie (Bamboo Remix)
Shakira made her World Cup debut at the closing ceremony in Berlin. The performance was energetic, unforgettable, and introduced her to football fans around the world.

● 2010 FIFA World Cup (South Africa)
🎵 Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)
This wasn’t just a World Cup song; it became a global movement. Performed at both the opening and closing ceremonies, “Waka Waka” went on to become the most successful and most-streamed World Cup song ever.

● 2014 FIFA World Cup (Brazil)
🎵 La La La (Brazil 2014)
Shakira returned with another football anthem that captured the spirit of Brazil. She performed it at the closing ceremony, and many fans felt it was even more enjoyable than the tournament’s official song.

● 2026 FIFA World Cup (Canada, USA & Mexico)
🎵 Dai Dai (with Burna Boy)
Sixteen years after Waka Waka, Shakira is still delivering on the biggest football stage. Her latest World Cup anthem, “Dai Dai,” marks her fourth World Cup music contribution, making her the only artist to be associated with four different World Cup editions.

From Hips Don’t Lie to Waka Waka, from La La La to Dai Dai, Shakira has managed to make each World Cup appearance bigger than the last. Few artists have become as closely linked to football’s biggest tournament as she has.

At this point, Shakira isn’t just performing at the World Cup, she is part of World Cup history. Which Shakira World Cup song is your favorite?
