This year’s Copa América had a halftime show like never before seen in this competition. The performer who thrilled everyone present was none other than Shakira, one of the most renowned singers in the world.

As soon as the first half of the match between the Albiceleste and the Colombians ended, the organizers of the show began to move to set up the stage and the sound equipment in the middle of the playing field. A few minutes passed and the Colombian appeared.
Those in the Miami stadium began to dance and sing the artist’s greatest hits. This served to warm everyone up for the next 45 minutes. Among the songs she sang in the approximately 5 minutes she was there were Hips don’t lie, Te felicito, Puntería
