Singer comes out of hiding to show that pregnancy isn’t slowing her down

Less than a month ago, Shakira confirmed rumors that she was pregnant with her first child, announcing at the same time her intention of taking some time off to just enjoy the moment. The break is over, it would seem.

The video above (of rather poor quality, as it happens) is of Shakira performing at the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup 2012 Final in Baku, Azerbaijan, on the Tofig Bahramov Stadium.

The final was between France and Korea DPR.

As you can see, Shakira was obviously showing but, even so, still managed to keep up with her backup dancers on the energetic “Waka Waka” dance routine and even do some of her trademark moves.

“In a few minutes it will be our baby's first time on stage and precisely at a football event! Magic Shak,” the singer wrote on her Twitter shortly before the performance.

Shakira and her boyfriend Gerard Pique have been together for over a year and a half. This will be their first child together but, as of now, no one in the press knows when the singer is due.
