Shakira Electrifies Copa America 2024 Halftime

The 2024 Copa América Final between Argentina and Colombia featured a standout halftime show by Colombian singer Shakira, who performed a medley of her hits including 'Hips Don't Lie' and 'Waka Waka.' Shakira's five-minute performance, for which she reportedly earned $2 million, marked the first halftime show in Copa América history. Colombian head coach Nestor Lorenzo expressed concerns that the extended halftime could negatively impact his players, who were used to a 15-minute break. Despite his reservations, the show went ahead, electrifying the crowd at Hard Rock Stadium. The match also held significant importance as it was likely Lionel Messi's final Copa América appearance.
