Tour Blog: Shakira's Beirut visit

Shakira, whose father is of Lebanese descent, recently performed for the very first time in Beirut. She visited her country with her brother Tonino and sister Lucy. Shakira.com accompanied Shakira the day before the gig to visit Byblos, and then filmed the show, which Shak dedicated to her father.

uuuuuuooooooooooooooouuuuuu

[@davidkeeplergmail.comanton3466]

I'm sorry, about that.

[@jasmindegante-salazar4680]

wow 😫

[@joseLuisRodriguez-tr3mv]

Wow

[@juvenskeyjasmin9218]

Verry good luck to you baby I am liked this but so what I am sorry about that all rigth that's ok

[@manuel19992]

You know what is so sad? It's that the media only shows the bad side of Lebanon, but never the beautiful side of it, though as you can see it's a peaceful beautiful country God bless you Shakira.. you're amazing

[@ashleygebron3085]

manuel19992 I know I hate that it's sad

[@ruma4399]

Yeah

[@Drskopf]

It happens to all poor countries, Colombia is not an exception, my Nicaragua too, so don't feel bad for that, is a way for the wealthiest country to try to look down on us!! Don't worry about that just be you and do what we in the West do, we celebrate and make fun of our realities to kill our struggles a lil bit, and celebrate our differences( remember we coexist with ppl from all background etnicieties and religion from the whole world, Jews and Muslims, Europeans and africans, Asians and Indigenous ppl mixing each others, the whole continent have been a refugee camp for the whole world) and the best part is, we try not fight each other we acknowledge we are human beings at the end of the day) ..don't worry and be happy like the song right, what time is it? Is time to party!!! Cheers from a Nicaraguan 🇳🇮🇳🇮👋 ☝️✌️

[@beachlifeinspo]

I know right😔

[@sirennem.6890]

politics is propaganda , love live Libanon. They deserve freedom of bad foreign influence and again be rich abd famous

[@tr2reality]

Nobody will ever replace Shakira!! Lebanese + Colombian!!!! Such a great mixture to bring one of the most memorable artists in the human history!!

[@senoragastona4931]

[@lolalei8078]

I'm from South Asia and I was lucky enough to visit Lebanon for work. I can tell you it's a beautiful country with gorgeous sceneries, mountains, clear blue sea and stunning architecture. Lots of lovely restaurants and shops. Some areas are similar to Dubai and other parts are like Turkey and Cyprus. Can definitely tell Shakira is part Lebanese, not just her looks but her voice, personality and belly dance skills. The people in Lebanon are friendly, full of character and personality and extremely welcoming. It's an amazing country and sadly not many people know that.

[@Ooooiops]

All Arab loves you Shakira 👏🏼😁 you’re our girl Btw Shakira means thankful lady in Arabic

[@DavaElHaqq]

Not all arab

[@luciano671]

Elegant She was born and raised in colombia to a Colombian mother and a Lebanese father who migrated to Colombia at 5 her first language is Spanish and so is most of the music she’s famous for she always identifies as Colombian first

[@koko..56]

Your mom gay 696969 so what’s your point

[@luciano671]

ek daddy that’s she’s Colombian

[@koko..56]

Your mom gay 696969 She’s a mixed basically that’s all I think is so nice to me mixed And have different cultures

[@YoungBrave2006]

Such a superstar. I think it is impossible not to fall in love with Shakira if you know that Shakira exists.

[@MissParisaNaderi]

It made me so emotional specially when she sings from Bahrain to Beirut.

[@jonatanrojas2878]

Fuí desde Baherin hasta Beirut...como se sentirá que mencionen a tu ciudad en una canción de Shakira??😍😍😍

[@brandonsantoyo9658]

this is awesome! my grandfather is Lebanese but my parents are Mexican:) I really would like to go to Lebanon and visit where my ancestors lived:)

[@worldbase]

Greetings to beautiful Mexico from Lebanon. Brandon, you are most welcome to Lebanon your other home. It is a good choice to visit your Grandparents place and surely you will blend quickly with the Lebanese people because we all have roots abroad, for example, I have a Grandfather in Chile and another uncle in Brazil and some relatives in West Africa and Australia. Lebanese people have adapted in many cultures of the world and they still have Lebanon in their hearts same do I. I call my Lebanon The Land of The Prophets because many Prophets such as Jesus, John and many have visited this beautiful Lebanon. Lebanese have migrated to North and South America for quite a long time, there are Lebanese in Mexico, Colombia, Brazil (Over 8.5 Million Lebanese), Argentina (2 Million) , Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Paraguay, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Cuba, Puerto Rico, U.S.A and Canada. Again, many Lebanese from around the world are visiting Lebanon to learn more about their grand roots. I wish you and your entire Family God's Blessings and pray that you will one day visit your other home Lebanon. With Love 💙 from Lebanon to Mexico

[@jairorubenmendoibarra5142]

Brandon Santoyo interesting! I'm also Mexican and my great grandfather was an Asian but raised in Mexico, wait, también hablas español :p

[@rababsater5509]

Shakira is such a beautiful person. Inside and out.

[@latipasa]

QUE HERMOSO ES VER A SHAKIRA COMPARTIENDO CON SU HERMANO Y SU HERMANA EN LA TIERRA DE SUS ANTEPASADOS. EL CONCIERTO ESTUVO ESPECTACULAR, MUY ESPECIAL Y EMOTIVO.

[@srlossnosa4156]

Eres de todos Reina 😘🥰❤️🌹

[@mjgggarcia3931]

[@valenspiel]

QUE IMPRESIONANTE LA ENERGIA POSITIVA QUE TRAE ESTA MUJER, SU CALIDAD HUMANA Y TALENTO LA LLEVARON DIRECTO AL PUESTO QUE MERECE: REINA DEL POP LATINO. MUCHOS CRITICAN PERO NO VEN QUE DETRAS DE UN VIDEO SEXY EXISTE UNA MUJER QUE A ALCANZADO UN LUGAR EN EL MUNDO IMPRESIONANTE. OJALAS SIEMPRE PUEDA SEGUIR TRANSMITIENDO SUS MENSAJES E IDEAS. PORQUE ESA VOZ PUBLICA QUE LOGRO OBTENER VALE LA PENA QUE EXISTA, SIGUE DEFENDIENDO LA NINEZ DESAMPARADA QUE TU MUSICA ES LA MEJOR TQM

[@nariverjcm]

[@gerardoegarciaviana]

[@DSVOP]

Que linda Shakira, sacando las fotos. Itras artistas se ponen modo div@s que levitan 🥲💗🔥

[@KahDiaz]

How can you say it doesn't mean anything?!?? It's the culture she learned, it's part of who she is! That's how everyone in latin america is. I have portuguese and spanish heritage, but i was born in Brazil so BRAZIL is MY country, no matter where my family came from. If you really think Colombia means nothing for Shakira, you don't know a thing about her and you don't know a thing about latin america people. ;)

[@user-vq2rk6hw3n]

By the way shakira born in Lebanon then she went to spain with her father and no one is Lebanese forget his country we have 18 million Immigrants out of the country and 5 million in the country we built this world from this small country our country first country that the people lived in search for it .According to the portal, Lebanon is the message of peace to the world

Definitivamente Shakira es la sucesora de Yma Sumac, ambas han recorrido así parte del Oriente Medio, Europa. Shakira no solo resalta sus raíces latinas se no también arabe., Yma Sumac también ritmos latinos y el Quechua, orgullosa de su sangre inca.
