Shakira hits 100 million Spotify listeners as fans eye possible Brazil concert

Colombian singer Shakira surpassed 100 million monthly listeners on Spotify in July, becoming the first woman and the first Colombian artist to reach the milestone. The surge occurred during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with her World Cup song “Dai Dai” – a collaboration with Burna Boy – topping the platform’s charts.

Brazilian journalist José Norberto Flesch has suggested that Shakira could return to Brazil in December, following earlier tour stops in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in February 2025 and a free megashow on Copacabana Beach in May 2025 that drew an estimated two million attendees. No official announcement has been made, and details of any potential December performance remain uncertain.

Shakira’s recent album *Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran* and the streaming record have reinforced her status as one of the most‑played artists worldwide, placing her among the platform’s top ten streamed performers.
