Shakira, known for her hit song “Hips Don’t Lie,” has switched up her hair color once again, this time opting for a striking shade of red. The 44-year-old shared a selfie on Friday, showcasing her vibrant new look as she rocked a sporty white and pink striped shirt in her makeup room. In the caption, she simply exclaimed, ‘Voilà!’ It’s been two decades since she last sported red hair for her music video “Ojos Asi.”
Guess who’s back with a fiery new look? It’s Shakira, the talented singer known for hits like “Hips Don’t Lie”, who has once again dyed her hair red. At 44 years old, she shared a selfie showing off her vibrant new tresses. It’s been a year since her electrifying performance at the Super Bowl halftime show, where she shared the stage with Jennifer Lopez. During the show, JLo impressed the audience by showcasing her pole dancing skills while her daughter Emme joined her on stage. Adding to her list of accomplishments, Shakira recently made headlines by selling the rights to her music to Hipgnosis Songs Fund. This deal includes all 145 of her songs, including fan favorites like ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ and ‘Whenever, Wherever’, to the popular music investment firm.
The 80s look is making a comeback! “Voilà!” she exclaimed in her post. It has been two decades since she rocked red hair in her iconic music video Ojos Asi. Shakira expressed her belief that being a songwriter is just as, if not more, important than being a singer and artist. She shared how she started writing at a young age to understand the world around her. While the exact amount she received for selling her catalogue remains undisclosed, it is worth noting that Neil Young recently sold half of his catalogue for an estimated $150 million (£110 million).
One year ago, Jennifer Lopez performed with a siren at the NFL Super Bowl LIV Half Time Show Press Conference in Miami, Florida on January 30, 2020. A 75-year-old music legend recently signed a profitable agreement with Hipgnosis Songs Fund, following their acquisition of Lindsey Buckingham’s music collection and Jimmy Iovine’s producer royalties. Neil’s extensive music catalog consists of 1,180 songs. The founder of the firm, Merck Mercuriadis, expressed that this deal will have a lasting impact on Hipgnosis.
Shakira stood out in red while putting on a show during the Pepsi Super Bowl LIV Halftime Show on February 2nd. Growing up, at the age of seven, I got my hands on my first Neil Young album. “Harvest” became my closest companion, and I got to know every note, every word, every pause, and every silence intimately.
Neil Young’s music has been a constant friend in my life ever since. Hipgnosis ensures that their clients’ music gets the exposure it deserves on radio and television, allowing them to earn royalties. In a recent development, Hipgnosis has decided to partner with Neil to ensure that his incredible songs reach a global audience.
According to Merck, the founder of Hipgnosis, it only makes sense to collaborate with Neil to make sure his music reaches every corner of the world. Hipgnosis was built to be a company that Neil would be proud to be a part of. We share a common integrity, ethos, and passion that stems from our belief in music and the significance of these songs. While there may never be a ‘Burger Of Gold,’ we are committed to working together to ensure that Neil’s music is heard on his own terms.
