Shakira’s Pregnant!

 

Shakira is going to be a mom! The Latin songstress took to her personal Facebook account to announce that she is expecting her first child with boyfriend and soccer player Gerard Pique. She wrote “As some of you may know, Gerard and I are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby!” She continued on with some disheartening news for her fans; “We have decided to give priority to this unique moment in our lives and postpone all the promotional activities planned over the next few days,” Shakira continues. “This means I will not be able to be a part of the iHeartRadio Music Festival, but I’m sure this weekend in Las Vegas will be spectacular!” The baby announcement comes just days after the news broke that she would be replacing Christina Aguilera for the fourth cycle of The Voice. Congrats to the soon-to-be-parents!
