Shakira performed her breakup mega-hit, "BZRP Music Session #53," live for the first time Friday night. The 46-year-old singer, who collaborated on the Guinness World Record-breaking song with Bizarrap, was joined by the Argentinian DJ on stage as she performed for a studio audience during an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." Released in January, "BZRP Music Session #53" is packed with references to her split from longtime boyfriend Gerard Piqué.
Shakira opened up about the painful breakup that inspired the song during her interview with Fallon. "I’ve had a very rough year after my separation, and writing this song has been so important to me," she said. "It’s been a healthy way to channel my emotions.
And I feel that after we put out this song, I really felt that I don’t even have fans out there. "I have a sisterhood of women who have been through the same things that I have been through, who think the way I think, who feel the way I feel, who had to put up with so much crap the way I had to," she explained. "And I did write the song for me, but also I feel that it was meant for so many women out there that needed a forum and a voice to represent them in so many ways." The hitmaker and the former pro soccer player, who share sons Milan, 10, and Sasha, 8, revealed they ended their 11-year relationship in June amid allegations Piqué had cheated on Shakira with his current girlfriend Clara Chia Marti, 23.
