A sticky situation. Shakira is caught in the middle of a heated battle with Spanish authorities over the allegation that she failed to pay nearly $14 million in taxes.In 2018, prosecutors in the European country accused the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer of withholding 14.5 million euro in taxes between 2012 and 2014.

At the time, Shakira’s official residence was listed in the Bahamas, but tax authorities claimed that she actually resided during the Catalonia region at the time, meaning she owed taxes to Spain.The Grammy winner has repeatedly denied the allegations, claiming that the Spanish government is attempting to make an example of her. “I didn’t spend 183 days per year [in Spain] at that time at all,” the “She Wolf” songstress told Elle in September 2022. “I was busy fulfilling my professional commitments around the world.

Second, I’ve paid everything they claimed I owed, even before they filed a lawsuit. So, as of today, I owe zero to them.”Shakira also pointed out the similarities between her case and those of other celebrities who have run afoul of Spanish tax authorities.
