Shakira Brings Out Tyla, Ed Sheeran & Burna Boy at Her First Show Post FIFA World Cup in New York City

Billboard · 8 hours ago

Fresh from her historic performance at the first FIFA World Cup halftime show, Shakira brought the same energy to Brooklyn's Barclays Center on Monday 20 July, kicking off a two-night stop on the US leg of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour with a run of high-profile surprise guests. The show, billed with a "World Cup Edition" tag, underlined Shakira's central role in this year's tournament and its aftermath, drawing on the momentum of Sunday's final between Spain and Argentina.

Alongside staples such as "Estoy Aquí" and "La Tortura", Shakira was joined by South African singer Tyla for a rendition of "Hips Don't Lie", by Ed Sheeran for a duet of "Underneath Your Clothes", and by Burna Boy for their collaboration "Dai Dai" — the official 2026 World Cup song, currently topping the Billboard Global 200 chart. The night closed with her 2010 World Cup anthem "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)", tying the concert directly to the tournament that had ended just a day earlier.

  • Shakira played Barclays Center a day after the World Cup final halftime show.
  • Surprise guests included Tyla, Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy.
