NEED TO KNOW
Shakira is extremely proud of her two boys.
The “Hips Don’t Lie” singer, 48, spoke with Entertainment Tonight during the Thursday, Nov. 13, red carpet premiere for Zootopia 2 in Hollywood alongside her sons, Milan, 12, and Sasha, 10. Shakira, who plays Gazelle in both Zootopia and Zootopia 2, said her sons, who have small roles in the second film, actually recorded their lines alongside her.
“Oh my God, I drool over them. They know that. They were not shy at all,” Shakira said of Milan and Sasha. “They were very spontaneous, and it was very easy to record their lines.”
“We all recorded our lines together when I did Gazelle, and they played Judy Hopps’ little brothers,” added the proud mom, who shares her sons with ex-partner Gerard Piqué. Ginnifer Goodwin voices Judy in the Disney franchise.

When asked if they’d like to do more, both brothers readily agreed. “Yeah, tons,” said Sasha.
“Of course,” says Milan. “It was a great experience and I’m super excited.”
The singer wore a long-sleeve, turtleneck purple dress to the red carpet and posed for photos with her sons. They wore matching purple suits with purple bow ties, smiling and posing on either side of their mom.
Although this is the first time Shakira’s sons have joined her on a project, it isn’t the first time they’ve attended events with her. In February, the proud mom had both her sons there to support her at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

In one sweet photo from the event, Shakira could be seen walking hand in hand with her boys, who wore matching silver tuxedos.
Later in the night, when Shakira took home the award for Best Latin Pop Album, the musician received big hugs from her boys as she headed to the stage. When she accepted her Grammy, Shakira adorably shouted out her sons.
“I want to share this award with my kids, Milan and Sasha, who are here with me,” she said. “I’m so proud of you guys, of your kind hearts.”
Her boys blew her kisses in return as the mom of two added, “Thank you so much for supporting me the way you do. I love you.”
Zootopia 2 hits theaters on Nov. 26.
