I’ve also read from a couple of music sources she was more expensive than the confirmed headliners. Oh well there’s always lollapalooza.
loveisdead9582 Posted January 8 Posted January 8 I know Shakira has a following, but does she have enough support to headline Coachella without a new album? We all know she can perform but if it’s just a greatest hits then idk… 1
Adrian14 Posted January 8 Posted January 8 (edited) I'm not surprised, she is old and hasn't been successful in the USA since 2006. Edited January 8 by Adrian14 3
Harry_ Posted January 8 Posted January 8 She's pushing 50 and she hasn't had a Top 10 hit in more than a decade. 9

Except she had two Billboard top ten hits last year, in Spanish and multiple worldwide number 1 hits. Plus, she was, along with Taylor, Miley, Sza, Karol, and Doja, in the top ten most streamed female artists of 2023. 3 1

MatiRod Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I say this is as a Latino who has literally listened to Shakira since I was like 5 years old and grew up with her, in the last 8-10 years she really only has been successful in Spanish-speaking countries and with the larger Spanish-speaking diaspora around the world (including the tens of millions of Latinos in the US). That's where those streaming numbers come from and how she got those Billboard Top 10 hits. But she hasn't been relevant with the American mainstream market in well over a decade. Her last (moderate) hit with the wider public was Can't Remember to Forget You and it wasn't that big lbr. She hasn't had a song that really connected and people remember in the English market since "Waka Waka", which was 14 years ago. So I understand why Coachella said no. Most of the people who attend are not Latinos, they are upper middle class white Americans and to them Shakira is not as iconic and huge. It is what it is. 1
holyground13 Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I'm aware she hasn't been as prolific in English speaking markets in the past 10 years but she has a set of iconic and memorable hits - Whenever, Wherever, Hips Don't Lie, She Wolf and Waka Waka are super well known. And she did the Super Bowl in 2020 which was an excellent show. Oh well I guess.

insomniac Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Honestly, they should’ve said YES as ticket sales wouldn’t have been as slow as today. Shakira would’ve been a nice headliner. 2
