Super Exciting News For Shakira!

by Quinn Keaney

There were whispers of singer Shakira having a possible bun in her oven in July, and now her hips, or rather her stomach, can't lie. Shakira is pregnant with her second child and she confirmed the news to the Mexican edition of Cosmopolitan! Baby numero dos will join her 1-year-old son, Milan Piqué Mebarak, whom she raises with her partner, FC Barcelona soccer stud Gerard Piqué, and who will surely be the singing, soccer-playing savant the world has been waiting for. (What? You guys haven't been waiting for one of those?)

The UK Mirror broke the news on Wednesday (possibly before Shakira's Cosmopolitan article, which also was published on Wednesday, came out...) when they reported that Columbian singer Carlos Vives revealed Shakira's pregnancy at an award ceremony in Miami. Vives said, "Yes, she is pregnant and she's very happy." I can definitely think of one person who won't be invited to Little Shakira or Little Gerard's first birthday party...

JK, JK, Carlos. Ever since she chose to perform at the World Cup in a conservative dress this summer (well, conservative by Shakira standards), rumors of a second pregnancy have been hard to ignore, even though Shakira had yet to comment or confirm anything. Thankfully now that the news is out, the world can start obsessing over the next babe! After all, if her second child is anywhere near as cute as lil Milan, she'll officially have the two most adorable children on the planet.

Congrats Shakira! May your gene pool continue its trek into hotness and perfection!
