Shakira feels emotionally empowered after her song with Argentine producer Bizarrap
Editor’s Note: A version of this article can be read in Spanish on CNNE.com. “I think I would be in a very different place if I had not made that song, [to have] the chance to express myself, to think about pain,” the Colombian singer told Mexican journalist Enrique Acevedo in her first interview since releasing two songs, one with Bizarrap and more recently with fellow Colombian singer Karol G. The interview aired Monday night on the Mexican network N+, part of Televisa, a CNN affiliate.
The hit unleashed a wave both support and criticism on social media about Shakira’s artistic choice to heal the wounds of heartbreak. In the interview, Shakira said that she has always been “emotionally dependent on men” and that she “also bought that story that a woman needs a man to complete herself, a family,” she said. “Now I feel complete because I feel that I depend on myself and that I also have two children that depend on me, so I have to be stronger than a lioness,” she added.
