Shakira Falls On Stage Mid-Concert, Keeps Performing Like A Pro
Shakira slipped and fell on stage during her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec. She quickly regained composure.
Even queens stumble sometimes and Shakira just proved she's one of the coolest pros in the biz. During a stop on her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour, Shakira had a bit of a slip-up at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec. The superstar was in the middle of setting the stage on fire with her performance when she lost her footing and took a fall right on stage.
Shakira was performing her hit song Whenever, Wherever on May 20 when she suddenly slipped and fell on stage. A video shared on X (formerly Twitter) shows the 48-year-old dancing with full energy before losing her balance and falling. Shakira quickly got back up, smiled, and kept performing.
A fan caught the moment on video and shared it online and now, social media is flooded with love for the singer.

Fans couldn't stop praising Shakira for how gracefully she handled the fall. One fan wrote, 'But like the Queen that she is, she took the bull by the horns and reacted super well." Another added, 'She even has class when falling."
A third fan gushed, 'She handled it wonderfully!!!" while someone else noted, 'This time she hit hard, but as always, she came out of the accident unscathed."
Another fan echoed Shakira's own lyrics, saying, 'A true professional, women don't cry." And one more admirer commented, 'Mamacita, always so resourceful and with the best attitude — a true artist."
Back in February, Shakira had to push back her concerts in Lima, Peru, because of a health scare. As reported by Billboard, she shared an update on Instagram saying, 'I am sorry to inform you all that last night I had to go to the ER for an abdominal issue and am currently hospitalised. I am very sad to not be able to take the stage today."
Luckily, she bounced back soon after.

Vijay Sethupathi breaks silence on casting couch allegations: 'Let the woman enjoy her...'
Vijay Sethupathi, the Kollywood superstar and the National Award-winning actor, has strongly reacted to the sexual exploitation allegations levelled by a woman on X (previously known as Twitter). Recently, a woman on X claimed that Vijay Sethupathi had exploited a young woman for 'caravan favours.' The post was later deleted by the woman. Now, the actor has reacted to the allegations and called them 'baseless'. 'Anyone who knows me even remotely will laugh at this. I know myself too. This kind of filthy accusation can't upset me. My family and close friends are upset, but I tell them, 'Let it slide. This woman is obviously doing it to be noticed. She has her few minutes of fame, let her enjoy it,'' the Jawan actor told while talking to Deccan Chronicle. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The actor has filed a cybercrime complaint against the user and said these kinds of smear campaigns don't affect him. 'I've faced all kinds of whispering campaigns for seven years. Such targeting has not affected me so far. It never will,' Sethupathi shared. He further linked the timing of the post with the success of his latest film, Thalaivan Thalaivii and shared, 'My new film is doing well. Probably, some jealous elements think that by tarnishing me, they can damage my film. It doesn't work that way. In today's day and age, anyone can say anything about anybody. There are no filters. All you need is an account on social media, and you can write what you like without fear of repercussion.' Recently, an X user named Ramya Mohan claimed that Vijay Sethupathi sexually exploited a girl known to her and tweeted, '@VijaySethuOffl has offered Rs. 2L for 'caravan favours', Rs. 50k for 'drives' and acts like a saint on social media.' 'It's insane how some insensitive morons are more focused on questioning the source or blaming the victim than actually acknowledging the truth. This truth hit the family like a storm when they went through her diary and phone chats. This wasn't just some story. This was her life, her pain…' another post stated.

'Kingdom' catches the ‘Devara' and ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu's sequel fever; Fans question need for part 2; REACTIONS
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Vijay Deverakonda 's much-anticipated film 'Kingdom' may have opened to decent buzz during its premiere shows, but the conversation has taken a turn online. As the credits rolled with a teaser for Part 2, netizens couldn't help but express disappointment over what they called an 'unnecessary' sequel setup. Viewers praised the film's rich build-up and dramatic intensity leading up to the pre-climax but felt the momentum was lost in a rushed finale. Many compared it to the recent trend in Telugu cinema — with 'Devara' and 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' also ending with the promise of a second part — a narrative choice that's now wearing thin for audiences. Twitter reacts: 'Why not tell a full story in one film?' Social media platforms saw a flurry of reactions, many echoing similar sentiments.

Another pointed out, 'Please stop making second halves just to set up Part 2. The story was strong enough to stand alone.' While Vijay Deverakonda's performance and look drew praise, the writing and structure — especially in the second half — came under fire. A recurring critique was that filmmakers seem more invested in franchise-building than completing an emotional arc within a single film. Kingdom - Official Telugu Trailer A trend that's wearing thin - It started like a Audiences are increasingly growing wary of films that prioritize cinematic universes over storytelling. As one viewer noted, 'It started like a blockbuster, ended like a compromise.' From the audiences it's sure that the industry may want to take note: a well-crafted standalone story may leave a stronger legacy than a half-told saga stretching into multiple parts. Whether Kingdom Part 2 can win back the hearts remains to be seen — but for now, it's clear that the forced cliffhanger has left many fans unimpressed.
