Thania Garcia On her first album in seven years, Shakira is focused on her evolution. The singer solidified herself as a pillar of international pop stardom, propelled by her English-language debut “Laundry Service,” in 2001, and in her freshly-released “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran,” she makes a grand re-entrance into society after what she’s openly called the “darkest hours” of her life, ones defined by the tabloid gossip surrounding her finances and very public breakup with soccer player Gerard Piqué.
But don’t be mistaken: “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” (“Women No Longer Cry”) isn’t dark thematically. Instead, Shakira flexes the progression of her longstanding craft.
She honors the rock and pop roots she cultivated in her native Barranquilla, Colombia, while also displaying her interest in regional subgenres, as she’s done in the past with Afrobeats and Arabic pop. On her 12th studio album, Shakira fully invests in these cross-genre marvels — songs with rapper Cardi B, Tejano band Grupo Frontera, Mexican corridos group Fuerza Regida and EDM masters Bizarrap and Tiesto, among others — that together represent the soundscape of current-day Latin pop.

Shakira’s voice is at its most syrupy in this song, though she mostly appears in the chorus.
“Cohete,” a track she shares with fellow Latin Grammy-nominated collaborator, Rauw Alejandro, maintains a similar pep, coated in the same sugary pop melodies that makes for an easy listen. Shakira’s star power

Anna Marie de la Fuente Calling all Latino filmmakers, John Travolta wants to work with you. Swinging by Panama to present his 1978 musical rom-com “Grease” at the 12th Panama International Film Festival (IFF Panama), Travolta professed his great love for “Mexico, Central America, South America, all of its parts.” “There is an incredible humanity that prevails and is different from anywhere else in the world,” he told Variety. Surprised to hear that Robert de Niro had starred in the Argentine series “Nada,” Travolta exclaimed: “I would have loved that, I would have enjoyed being lured to South America to play a part for a while.” The closest he’s come to working with a Latino director was with Alfonso Cuarón, who produced the short film streaming on Disney+ “The Shepherd,” based on Frederick Forsyth’s 1975 novella, which follows a young Royal Air Force pilot flying home for Christmas across the North Sea.
