Shakira's 'Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran' tour is filled with deep personal meaning. Beyond her marking a big return to the stage, it serves as her emotional catharsis following her public separation in 2022 from Gerard Piqué, the father of her children.
Throughout the show, the Colombian singer reflects on this difficult period in her life, finding inspiration to persevere from her sons, Milan and Sasha. A sweet nod to her boys happened during her "Acrostic" performance, a song that touches on how a mother's pain can be transformed into strength through the simple touch of her children.

On stage, Shakira wears a striking blue dress with a rigid corset featuring a wolf motif at the neckline and a skirt designed to mimic ocean waves. The outfit, created by designer Gaurav Gupta, carries significant personal symbolism, which Shakira explained.

She added, "The skirt fabric has an intricate wave design representing the Atlantic Ocean, which separates the two continents where my children and I were born: Europe and South America." Additionally, her look is completed with a touch of sentimentality: a Tiffany ring that symbolizes the boundless love between a mother and her children.
Milan and Sasha have joined their mother at several tour stops, starting in Brazil on February 11. They also appear in the 'Acrostic' music video, which features scenes of them amidst moving boxes, symbolizing their life transition from Madrid to a new beginning in Miami.
