哥伦比亚超级巨星夏奇拉周六晚在里约热内卢科帕卡巴纳海滩举办免费演唱会，里约市长表示，这场活动吸引了200万人来到这座全球最具标志性的海滨胜地之一。
这场演出紧随麦当娜2024年和嘎嘎小姐去年的同类演出之后，这两场活动同样吸引了大批观众在广阔的沙滩上跳舞。对夏奇拉而言，这场演出是她以2024年同名专辑命名的“女性不再哭泣”世界巡演的一站。
夏奇拉的演出于当晚11点左右开场，比原定时间晚了一个多小时。现场粉丝兴奋尖叫、掌声雷动，空中写字无人机在夜空掠过，用葡萄牙语拼出“我爱你巴西”。
这位超级巨星深情回顾了自己首次来到巴西的经历，那大约是30年前的事了。
“我18岁时来到这里，梦想着为你们唱歌，”夏奇拉上台后不久对观众说道，“而看看现在这一幕。人生真是神奇。”
这位深受喜爱的流行歌手演唱了粉丝最爱的曲目，包括《难以抗拒》（Hips Don’t Lie）、《痴情》（La Tortura）和《单车》（La Bicicleta）。她以《BZRP音乐现场#53/66》收尾，这首歌创作于她与西班牙足球运动员杰拉德·皮克分手之后。
她还在演出中借此机会赞颂了女性的韧性。“我们女性每次跌倒后，爬起来都会变得更睿智，”她说道。
夏奇拉早期成名地之一
里约市长爱德华多·卡瓦列雷在社交媒体上表示，有200万人出席了这场演出。“母狼在里约创造了历史，”他在帖子中写道，这里指的是夏奇拉2009年的热门单曲。
巴黎南泰尔大学流行音乐与数字技术专业博士生、民族音乐学家费利佩·马亚表示，夏奇拉在1990年代首次在巴西演出时，就与巴西公众建立了极佳的联结。
马亚说，夏奇拉在巴西的成功“很大程度上源于她来自哥伦比亚，这个国家的文化与巴西有诸多相似之处”，他补充道，周六的演出“为她长期以来与巴西的羁绊画上了圆满的句号”。
38岁的会计埃丽卡·蒙特罗表示，她从小就听夏奇拉的歌。
“对我来说，她代表了我们拉美社群的力量，”蒙特罗在演唱会前说道，“我们总被当成不如别人，但实际上我们拥有更多力量。”
周六演出结束后回家的海伦·索萨·达席尔瓦表示，夏奇拉的演出，如同二月份巴德·邦比在圣保罗的演唱会一样，有助于强化巴西的拉美身份认同。
这些艺术家“正在明确表明，巴西、波多黎各、哥伦比亚和其他国家都是拉丁美洲的一部分。而‘美洲’并不等同于美国，”她说道。
观众周六一早就开始涌向海滩，抢占观看演出的最佳位置。街头小贩售卖甜玉米和其他巴西小吃、瓶装水和凯匹林纳鸡尾酒——这款广受欢迎的巴西鸡尾酒，同时还售卖卫生纸、除臭剂，甚至还有供观众垫在脚下以更好观看舞台的沙袋，舞台就设在历史悠久的豪华酒店科帕卡巴纳宫对面。
街头小贩西蒙娜·宝拉·达库尼亚周五晚上就来到了海滩，希望能卖掉提前采购的所有啤酒和瓶装水，总共赚得约100美元。
尽管疲惫不堪，达库尼亚仍对能现场观看夏奇拉演出感到兴奋。“我还记得她还是黑头发的时候，”她说，“我是她的超级粉丝。”
提振嘉年华后城市经济的举措
这类免费演唱会是里约市政府的举措之一，旨在提振嘉年华和新年前夜庆祝活动之后、六月为期一个月的圣约翰节庆祝活动之前的经济活力。
“对我们而言，节庆活动是严肃的事业。因为节庆能为城市创造就业、带来收入、推动发展，还能塑造城市身份，”市长卡瓦列雷周三在介绍本次活动的运营计划时说道，“我们在这场演出上的投入，将带来40倍于成本的经济回报。”
根据市政府和里约旅游局（市政旅游公司）的一项研究，夏奇拉的这场演出预计将带来约7.77亿雷亚尔（约合1.55亿美元）的经济效益，这得益于游客的涌入以及他们在餐厅、酒店和商店的消费。
市政府数据显示，在举办过演唱会的2024年和2025年，五月前往里约的游客数量都比2023年有所增加。2024年，演唱会前的5月1日游客量较前一年增长了34.2%。2025年，这一增幅较2023年达到了90.5%。
在去年嘎嘎小姐的演唱会期间，里约州警方逮捕了两名涉嫌炸弹阴谋的人员。警方表示，这两名被捕者据称属于一个针对LGBTQ群体散布仇恨言论的组织，他们试图煽动并招募青少年使用燃烧弹和自制爆炸物实施袭击。
在夏奇拉的演唱会举办前，爱彼迎在4月22日的一份声明中表示，预计将有来自巴西各地、拉丁美洲乃至巴黎和伦敦等欧洲首都的游客数量出现增长。
30岁的建筑师万德森·安德拉德周六特意从巴西中部的戈亚纳市飞抵里约，计划次日返程。
“去年我曾试图抢到她在巴西演唱会的门票，但没能成功，”安德拉德说，他的第一个纹身就是一只狼，以纪念夏奇拉，“今天终于梦想成真了。”
Shakira draws 2 million spectators in free concert on Brazil’s Copacabana Beach, mayor says

Colombian superstar Shakira gave a free concert on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro on Saturday night, an event that the city’s mayor said drew 2 million people to one of the world’s most iconic waterfronts.
The performance followed similar shows by Madonna in 2024 and Lady Gaga last year, which also were attended by huge crowds that danced on the sprawling sands. For Shakira, it was part of her “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran,” or “Women No Longer Cry,” world tour named after her 2024 album.
Shakira’s set kicked off around 11 p.m., more than an hour after the scheduled slot, to her fans screaming with excitement and frantic applause as skywriting drones flew overhead, spelling out in the sky, “I love you Brazil” in Portuguese.
The megastar spoke fondly about the first time she came to Brazil, some three decades ago.
“I arrived here when I was 18 years old, dreaming about singing for you,” Shakira told the crowd shortly after coming on stage. “And now look at this. Life is magical.”
The much-loved pop star sang fan favorites such as “Hips Don’t Lie,” “La Tortura” and “La Bicicleta.” She ended with “BZRP Music Sessions #53/66,” which followed her separation from Spanish soccer player Gerard Piqué.
She also took the time to celebrate women’s resilience during the show. “Us women, every time we fall we get up a little wiser,” she said.
One of the first places where Shakira became successful
Rio Mayor Eduardo Cavaliere said on social media that 2 million people attended the performance. “The She-Wolf made history in Rio,” he posted, referring to Shakira’s 2009 hit.
When Shakira first performed in Brazil in the 1990s, she established an amazing connection with the Brazilian public, according to Felipe Maia, an ethnomusicologist pursuing a doctoral degree in popular music and digital technologies at Paris Nanterre University.
That success in Brazil “has a lot to do with the fact that she comes from Colombia, a country whose culture has many similarities with Brazil,” Maia said, adding that Saturday’s performance “crowns the relationship she has had with Brazil for a very long time.”
Erica Monteiro, a 38-year-old accountant, said she has listened to Shakira since childhood.
“For me she represents the strength of our Latino community,” Monteiro said ahead of the concert. “We’re treated as if we were inferior but in fact we have much more strength.”
Heading home after Saturday’s show, Hellem Souza da Silva said Shakira’s performance, like Bad Bunny’s concerts in Sao Paulo in February, helped consolidate Brazil’s Latino identity.
These artists “are making it clear that Brazil, Puerto Rico, Colombia and other countries are part of Latin America. And that America is not the United States,” she said.
Crowds started piling onto the beach Saturday morning to nab a good spot for the show. Street vendors sold sweet corn and other Brazilian snacks, bottled water and caipirinhas, the popular Brazilian cocktail, but also toilet paper, deodorant and even bags of sand for concertgoers to stand on to get a better view of the stage set up opposite Copacabana Palace, a historic luxury hotel.
Street vendor Simone Paula da Cunha arrived on the beach on Friday evening, hoping to sell all the beer and water bottles she had bought ahead of the show and make about $100 in all.
Despite being tired, da Cunha was excited at the prospect of seeing Shakira live. “I remember her from when she still had black hair,” she said. “I’m a huge fan of hers.”
An effort to boost the city’s post-Carnival economy
The free concerts are part of City Hall’s attempt to boost economic activity after Carnival and New Year’s Eve festivities and before the monthlong Saint John’s Day celebrations in June.
“For us, parties are serious business. Because parties generate jobs, income, development, and identity for the city,” Cavaliere, the mayor, said on Wednesday as he presented the city’s operational plan for the event. “Our investment in this show will give us a financial return 40 times greater,” he said.
Shakira’s performance could generate around 777 million reais (around $155 million), according to a study by City Hall and Riotur, the municipality’s tourism company, thanks to the influx of tourists and cash spent in restaurants, hotels and shops.
More tourists headed to Rio in the month of May in the years with shows — 2024 and 2025 — compared to 2023, according to City Hall data. In 2024, the growth was 34.2% on May 1, just ahead of the concerts, compared to the previous year. In 2025, the increase was 90.5% compared to 2023.
Amid last year’s concert with Lady Gaga, Rio de Janeiro’s state police arrested two people for an alleged bomb plot. Police said the two arrested were allegedly part of a group that was spreading hate speech against the LGBTQ community, and they sought to radicalize and recruit teenagers to carry out attacks using Molotov cocktails and improvised explosives.
Ahead of Shakira’s performance, Airbnb said in an April 22 statement that it was seeing an increase in guests expected to travel from different parts of Brazil, Latin America and even European capitals such as Paris and London.
Wanderson Andrade, a 30-year-old architect, said he flew in especially for the show from the city of Goiana in central Brazil on Saturday and planned to fly back the following day.
“I tried to get tickets to see her in Brazil last year but I didn’t succeed,” said Andrade, whose first tattoo is a wolf in honor of Shakira. “Today is a dream come true.”
