“I love you Brazil”
in Portuguese.

Addressing the endless crowd,
Shakira
she thanked the fans and said: “I arrived here at 18, dreaming of singing for you. And now look. Life is magical.”
The mayor of Rio de Janeiro, Eduardo Cavaliere
later stated on X that two million people attended the concert.
“La Lupa made history in Rio”

During the show
Shakira
celebrated female resilience, telling the audience: “We women, every time we fall we get back up a little wiser.” As NME reports, in the days before the concert, organizers confirmed the death of a member of the local crew who were in charge of setting up the stage. In a statement, the 49-year-old Latin American musician remembered him with these words: “I am deeply saddened for the family, friends and colleagues of Gabriel de Jesus Firmino, a worker who lost his life. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.”
