When in Miami...

Shakira is adjusting quite nicely after relocating to the Magic City with her two sons.

On Saturday night, the Waka Waka goddess snagged the Latin Woman of the Year award at the Billboards 2023 event at the Watsco Center in Coral Gables. Presenting her with the honor was good pal, fellow Colombian, reggaetonero Maluma.

On Sunday, the Colombiana was seen trackside at the Formula One race deep in convo with the one and only Tom Cruise.

Word is the “Mission: Impossible” star, who reportedly has a place over in Clearwater, near Scientology headquarters, is “interested” and sent Shak flowers after their meeting.

By Wednesday, she was on the move yet again. Paparazzi snapped the mother of two on a boat with car racing stud Lewis Hamilton, with whom she had rubbed shoulders at Cipriani restaurant in Brickell the night before.

Deep breath, girl. May we recommend a colada or two?

Photos showed Hamilton helping a smiling Shakira, who was rocking a purple bikini and fringed cover-up, board before they set sail.

Also on the trip, as per Spanish outlet Hola: The Colombian’s brother Tonino Mebarak, who works in real estate here.

On her social media, we didn’t see any pics of her recent adventures with some of the world’s hottest bachelors, just stuff about work.

On Thursday, she dropped a new song, “Acrostico,” (roughly translated to “poem”).

Here’s to hoping Cruise and Hamilton both give it a listen.
