Pop star and singing sensation Shakira was over the moon as a bronze and aluminum statue over 6.5 meter high was inaugurated in her hometown Barranquilla. She shared multiple pictures and penned a note to welcome another feather to her cap.

“I feel deeply honored by this recognition from my hometown. That they wanted to immortalize me in bronze is a gesture that I will always carry in my heart. Barranquilla is and will forever be my home, it is the land where I was born and where my artistic dreams were born,” Shakira wrote.

Text on the statue On January 2, 1977, Barranquilla was born to the world: A heart that composes, hips that do not lie, an unmatched talent, a voice that moves masses and bare feet that march for the good of children and humanity ( …) His raised arms and vertically clasped hands represent the reach of transcendence. However, users on social media pointed a mistake. Yino Marquez, which happens to be the name of the sculptor, has a ‘s’ in his last name and not a ‘z’. The sculptor reacts I saw it a day before and the mayor himself told me don’t worry, that this will be corrected without a problem and yes, I see that there is no problem with that. It will be corrected and that’s it, nothing happens,” he revealed on Blu Radio.
