Shakira’s net worth is staggering, but her earnings have also come into question in recent years.
She has had two separate criminal fraud investigations against her in Spain, alleging that while her hips don’t lie, her tax returns might.
The first case is set to rule on whether or not she failed to pay $13.9 million in taxes between 2012 and 2014, while the second reportedly is linked to her 2018 income taxes. Her team has argued her innocence in both cases, the outcomes which will each be largely determined by her residency status: Her lawyers argued that her primary residences for both was in the Bahamas and that because she was touring heavily, she didn’t actually live or stay in Spain long enough to have to pay taxes there.
The star’s rep said in a statement, “[Shakira] defends having always acted in accordance with the law and under the advice of the best tax experts. She is now focused on her artistic career in Miami and is calm and confident that she will receive a favorable resolution of her fiscal issues.”
Phew! In any case, find out Shakira’s net worth in 2023 and how she earned it—and why she’s likely to keep raking it in for years to come.
