Shakira<\/a> returned to North Texas on Tuesday night for her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour 2026,” celebrating in World Cup<\/a> style. With Dallas serving as a host city for the FIFA World Cup, it was fitting that Shakira performed a special “World Cup Edition” show.<\/p>\n It was a nearly two-hour spectacle featuring over 25 songs divided into four acts plus an encore. The evening was a true celebration that kept the sold-out crowd dancing from start to finish.<\/p>\n The night opened with “La fuerte,” “Girl Like Me” and a mashup of “Las de la Intuici\u00f3n” and “Estoy aqu\u00ed.”<\/p>\n Article continues below this ad<\/p>\n In June 2025, the Colombian singer performed at Globe Life Field in Arlington<\/a> with the stadium version of her world tour. Now, at the American Airlines Center<\/a>, the show was more intimate and musically more Latin. The atmosphere was created with an arena-adapted version featuring robotic lights, avatars, videos and giant screens surrounding Shakira on stage.<\/p>\n Shakira (center) performed her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Cup Edition” show with dancers at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, June 23, 2026.<\/p>\n Tom Fox\/The Dallas Morning News<\/p>\n Throughout the show, the stage transformed through all these elements and we could see Shakira surrounded by a desert, swimming as a mermaid in the ocean or at a forest with a giant wolf.<\/p>\n For a World Cup edition show, this time the dress code for fans included jerseys from the national soccer teams of Colombia, Argentina and Mexico. There were also flags from those countries and characteristic Colombian paisa hats.<\/p>\n Article continues below this ad<\/p>\n Shakira performed her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Cup Edition” show at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, June 23, 2026. The Mexican flag is one of several flags projected on a video screen.<\/p>\n Tom Fox\/The Dallas Morning News<\/p>\n In the crowd among longtime Shakira fans there were also girls and boys eagerly anticipating songs like “Zoo” from Zootopia 2, which was enthusiastically sung and danced along to. Dancers in tiger costumes accompanied Shakira on stage for this catchy tune.<\/p>\n Shakira lent her voice to both Zootopia animated films: the first released in 2016 and the second that premiered in 2025, where her character Gazelle performed the song “Zoo.”<\/p>\n “Dai\u00a0Dai,” the official song of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, was another highly anticipated song for Shakira’s younger fans. Equally anticipated, the classic “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, had the entire venue on its feet dancing.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
