Cruise was asked what his impression was of Shakira, after the meeting they had at the Miami Formula 1 Grand Prix, so the peculiar question about her hips appeared: “Don’t her hips lie?” Between laughs, the actor and protagonist of Mission Impossible responded: No, her hips don’t lie. They do not do it”.
In view of the statements that the actor gave about the Barranquilla artist, in the middle of her time on the MET Gala carpet, Shakira was questioned about Cruise’s opinion of her. Additionally, she was asked if she had seen the video in which the American refers to that area of her body, to which she responded that she was unaware of the existence of that clip.

The artist did not hesitate to respond, quite surprised by the compliment, stating that she agreed: “You’re right, they are the most honest hips there are,” laughing.
But this was not the only thing the artist talked about, as she also said that her children could not see her dressed up for the MET Gala because they were at her home in Miami accompanied by her family. She stated that on other occasions she was a guest at the event, but her multiple occupations prevented her from attending and 2024 was the perfect opportunity to show off.
Among the reactions of Internet users to Shakira’s response, they stand out: “How naturally Shakira answers these questions”; “humility above all, of my beautiful Barranquilla”; “I love when they say ‘Long live Colombia!’ and she responds so casually, “Long live!”, among others.

Shakira became the second Colombian in this version, who, like her compatriot Karol G, said yes for the first time to the so-called fashion Oscars. For this occasion, the BZRP performer Shakira Music Sessions Vol. 53 chose the color red in a vaporous fabric, with a huge train and large marls, with a delicate headdress of diamonds on the neckline.
The Colombian wore a design made of crepe with cut-out details – which in fashion design consists of asymmetrical cuts in clothing, exposing the skin – as can be seen on the sides of the imposing gala dress. Following the pompous trend of the season, she highlighted a flower-shaped cape, which comes off from the completely exposed back in accordance with the theme.
