Shakira to Celebrate the ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ 20th Anniversary on ‘The Tonight Show’

Shakira is gearing up for a monthlong takeover on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Billboard can announce Tuesday (April 28).

With three confirmed appearances, the Colombian superstar will first perform her global hit “Hips Don’t Lie” in honor of the song’s 20th anniversary on Tuesday, May 6. A sit-down interview with Fallon — during which she will discuss the song’s impact, her latest album and the start of the U.S. leg of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour — will then air on May 8.

Billboard can also confirm that a special performance of her 1996 timeless ballad “Antología” will air on The Tonight Show later in the month.

“Hips Don’t Lie,” in collaboration with Haitian rapper Wyclef Jean, forms part of Shak’s 2005 album Oral Fixation, Vol. 2. The single — which fuses pop with Colombian cumbia and folklore — became Shakira and Jean’s first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 when it topped the chart on June 17, 2006.

Additionally, Shakira will kick off the North American leg of her 2025 world tour on May 13 at the Bank of America Stadium in North Carolina.

Named by Billboard as No. 1 among the Best 50 Female Latin Pop Artists of All Time, Shakira also topped Billboard’s monthly Top Tours chart for the first time, earning $32.9 million from 282,000 tickets sold in February, according to figures reported to Billboard Boxscore.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon airs at 11:35 p.m. ET/10:35 p.m. CT on NBC and streams the next day on Peacock.
