In a twist of fate, Shakira, the globally acclaimed Colombian songstress, seems to have missed the spotlight at Coachella 2024. Renowned for its stellar lineups, the music festival has opted for headlining acts by Doja Cat, Lana Del Rey, and Tyler, The Creator. This surprising choice has sparked fervent speculation and lively debates among fans.
Coachella 2024 Reportedly Rejected Shakira’s Bid For A Headline Spot
In a surprising move, Coachella 2024 has said no to Shakira headlining, leaving fans both shocked and curious. The globally acclaimed songwriter, known for her energetic performances, didn’t cut it.
While we eagerly await the official Coachella 2024 lineup, recent rumors suggest that the 46-year-old won’t be gracing the stage as a headliner this time around. Looking back to 2022, Shakira was on the list of artists fans hoped to see at Coachella.
Fast forward to 2023, when the singer turned her heartbreak into global hits like BZRP Music Sessions, Vol. 53, and TQG. The MTV Video Music Awards crowned her with the Video Vanguard Award, marking a monumental year for the Colombian pop icon.
However, despite the anticipation, it seems she won’t be headlining Coachella in 2024 if rumors are to be believed. Hits Daily Double released a speculative report on Coachella’s 2024 headliners, claiming that the Waka Waka vocalist team was pushing for her to headline this year.
The festival, however, reportedly turned down the offer for unspecified reasons. While this remains speculative until the official lineup drops, Shakira’s fans have already expressed their disappointment on social media.
This unexpected development injects an element of mystery into the upcoming festival, prompting questions about the criteria guiding the organizers’ decisions.
As excitement grows for Coachella 2024, Shakira’s absence from the headline roster only deepens the intrigue surrounding the musical lineup. Yet, the fan base, not thrilled with the speculation, has taken to social platforms to voice their discontent.
