No make-up and big dark glasses: a smiling Shakira catches Tom Cruise’s attention at the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami, while her son Milan interrupts the couple’s pleasant conversation

Without a doubt, Shakira shined during the first weekend of May 2023. She was the first to do so on Saturday night when she received Billboard’s “Woman of the Year” award from Maluma. There, she surprised her loyal fans by taking the stage with a tight and short black dress and her characteristic loose hair.

Then, a day later, she captured the attention of the media with her performance at the Formula 1 World Grand Prix race held at the Miami International Speedway, which she attended with her children Milan and Sasha.

These would be the first events where the singer appears after leaving Barcelona and settling in her new residence in Miami, following her media separation from Gerard Piqué.

During her arrival in the United States in early April, Shakira posted a statement on her Instagram profile in which she asked the media for privacy.

A month later, the “Ojos así” translator begins to resume her public life with this pair of appearances that grab the headlines in the tabloids.

The Barranquilla-born singer did not go unnoticed among the barrage of artists and personalities who said they were present at the sporting event. He attracted attention even when he was seen together with Hollywood actor Tom Cruise, a fan of auto racing.

Cameras caught the couple on the Formula 1 circuit as they walked along the track where the teams were preparing. But that was not their only coincidence, since both were later seen talking comfortably and smiling, Colombian media outlet Semana reports.

“In the US, the VIP topic is something else. Tom Cruise and Shakira together on the track. Be careful when going through the Aston Martin box so you don’t get splashed,” media outlet PitLane Motor jokingly posted on its Twitter account alongside pictures of the pair.

The singer seemed relaxed walking through the crowd in a not-so-casual and uncomplicated edition composed of a striking corset and green lace, which she matched with wide-leg sweatpants in the same tone, Chic Magazine reports.

To complement his own look, Shakira always wore dark glasses that covered part of her face without makeup.

In another of the pictures circulating on social networks, Milan’s intervention at the meeting with Tom Cruise is appreciated. The youngest is clearly excited, jumping around, and his loving mother greets him with a kiss and a hug, while the actor looks on.

The big question that many ask themselves is what the famous Hollywood actor and the Colombian translator talked about in the pleasant conversation they had in one of the lodges.

Although at one point the paparazzi focused their attention on the artist, the sports event was followed by various personalities from the world of entertainment and sports giants such as Roger Federer, Michael Jordan, Serena and Venus Williams, Mike Tyson, and actors Vin Diesel and Michele Rodriguez.

Singer Will.I.Am from the Black Eyed Peas was also present, who did not hesitate to pose with Shakira, which she showed by posting a photo on her Instagram. He also referred to the meeting with his friend and famous designer Riccardo Tisci.

Legendary rapper Wyclef Jean and grime artist Skepta, Colombian runner Juan Pablo Montoya, three-time world champion Jackie Stewart, Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross were added to the list.

The World Grand Prix of Formula 1 culminated in the victory of the Dutchman Max Verstappen, who takes the lead in the championship, according to El Tiempo. Mexican ‘Checo’ Pérez and Spaniard Fernando Alonso completed the podium. (AND)
