Shakira’s hit ‘Whenever, Wherever’ reaches No. 1, creating a remarkable milestone 18 years later

Shakira’s still got it!


Nearly 20 years after its initial release, the Colombian singer’s hit song, “Whenever, Wherever” reached No. 1 on U.S. iTunes Tuesday. “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),” released in 2010, reached No. 6.

Shakira found major success in the U.S. in the early 2000s with multiple chart-topping songs, but neither “Whenever, Wherever” or “Waka Waka” ever hit No. 1 on the Billboard charts, with the former peaking at No. 6 and the latter at No. 38. Her resurgence comes two days after Shakira’s appearance at the Super Bowl halftime show Sunday, where she performedaongside Jennifer Lopez in Miami. The pair made history as the first two Latina women to co-headline the show.

Shakira, who turned 43 on Sunday, posted a photo of her on stage following the performance, writing that she had received “the best birthday gift.”


“The best birthday gift has been the support of all my fans and the most amazing and hardworking team an artist could wish for,” she captioned the post. “We Latinos climbed Kilimanjaro and made history tonight and we couldn’t have done it without all of you!”
