Popstar Shakira practises tennis with partner and Barcelona defender Gerard Pique… and she’s REALLY good
Colombian singer takes time out from busy schedule to work on her volley
SHAKIRA has shown that her talents extend way beyond music with a new video on Instagram.
The Colombian singing sensation posted the snap of herself playing tennis with partner Gerard Pique.
And from the look of it she may have enjoyed a fine career in the sport had pop not got in the way.
Shakira has been dating the Barcelona defender since 2010 when they worked on the video for World Cup hit 'Waka Waka' together.
The couple have two kids, Milan and Sasha, and regularly play tennis.
Last month they were filmed by ¡Hola! magazine rallying with three-year-old Milan in Barcelona.
The 39-year-old is believed to be working on a new album and says Spain international Pique is often left to look after the two children.
