Shakira confirms she's expecting first child with footballer BF Pique

Colombian pop star Shakira, 35, confirmed yesterday Wednesday September 19th that she and her Spanish football player boyfriend, Gerard Pique, 25, are expecting their first child 
"As some of you may know, Gerard and I are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby!" Shakira said in a statement on her website. "At this time, we have decided to give priority to this unique moment in our lives and postpone all the promotional activities planned over the next few days."

Age is just a number and jail is just a room :))

Steps taken these days:
-Meet
-Date
-Move in and live together
-Make babies
-Maybe, JUST MAYBE get married.

Call me old-fashioned but it's a sad world we live in now. A world with no discipline.

Anonymous said...

I 100% agree with your comment.but hope you are not a hypocrite sha?!

ChichiLuv said...

Whatever happened to simply dating, using precaution while readying oneself emotionally, mentally, financially (last one doesn't apply to them, they have money) to marry BEFORE getting pregnant? Times have changed o.

Well, thank God at least they can afford to have the child unlike some of the people out here who just pop 'em out and start bugging relatives to help them take care of the children.

Nike said...

All of you people judging them on having a baby outside wedlock, well I hope for your sake that you are all married cause karma is a big assed bitch and all of you running your mouth about how it is a sin might just find yourself in that position and the world will judge and mock you as you have done to others. That is why the good book says "judge not unless ye want to be judged". You don't know tomorrow!!! STOP THIS HOLIER THAN THOU BULLSHIT!!!

that is fornication they have committed, God ve mercy on them. KC

Kk said...

And he doesn't cheat?

Maks said...

My people, abeg Pique age na football age. The guy is damn older than Shakira. Congratulations any way. hope you get married and stay till death do you part.

Sociable said...

Stupid hypocritical comment,why fornicate at all,use condom or raw flesh fornication is fornication.

The best best is No premarital sex. If not you are the same as someone who is pregnant out of wedlock ,whether you married before pregnancy or after pregnancy it's the same as long as you fornicate and never a virgin before marriage.

Una too like to paint some things good and some bad to justify your own state.

Linda love, we are waiting for your birthday pix.
God bless for your good work.

In my opinion, if you are having premarital sex or have had premarital sex you have absolutely NO right to point a finger at Shakira because sin is sin. The only difference between some of u and her is the baby factor.

We can count how many virgins are left in 9ja today. You people r there running ur mouth. Just because they're having a baby without being married doesn't make you better.

Anonymous said...

NIgerians, you people are something else....is this a syndrome where you pay attention to the lives of people from other countries (yet you claim you keep to your tradition), and ignore what is happening in your back ground?

Linda, seriously? you're proud of yourself? this is hard work?

Hummm! My heart is so heavy and fills with fear this morning weeping within me I am indeed every sad. Many Christian are in HELL. If you and I die today where we will find ourselves if the trumpet blow we will depart with the Righteous? How many Righteous do have remaining on earth? When last have we talked about Jesus Christ in a sincere manner without reward to a soul that feels he does need Him? Things are changing our focus is more on our dressing to church every Sunday, parties, making our children look good, making sure our husband remain loyal and loving, our career, this are not bad but are we sincerely committed to this Man that gave His life for us? I am scare if the Trumpet blow now there may not be any saint to rapture because we are all very BUSY. We are good at asking for forgiveness every second we Sin what if there is no Opportunity to do that? Even If I make heaven (just been sincere here) I will feel bad if I see those I could have help to be where I would be in HELL. CHRISTIANS ARE IN HELL. If you read this just click Like so I will know how many people got the Lord message today I don’t want any sweet words or encouraging Words Just Like and Think!!! Things Are Changing. Who is preparing? You, your husband, your Wife, your parents, your Children, your Neighbor, your colleague, your In-Law, your friend, your maid, your boss, your Pastor. Do you think they are ready?

Hey, So at Heathrow Terminal 3 i was standing beside 2 elderly (in their 50's-60's) Oyibo women... posh women ( i know em when i see em)..

so one said to the other."did u see that graceful elegant lady" and the 2nd woman didnt..so the first woman said "she's dark (i guess she didnt want to say black); navy dress.

What is the moral of the story? nah theres none..lol. just relaying the compliment :)

Mark please don't get it twisted,pique is 25,don't always see things from African/Naija perspective.As long as He was born right here in Europe,that's his age brother.When one is not born into suffering,feeds well and eats a balanced diet,he/she is bound to look older than his/her age{check out the children of the wealthy in Naija and you will understand where am coming from}.That faking age of a thing in football carrier is only possible in Africa and South america.Muchisimo gracias.

Nigerians are hypocrites infact useless people. Can u remember lola omotayo and Psquare. How certain group of people abused her for just getting pregnant wivout marrying this guy. If u congratulated shakira and u are one of those who insulted lola, may your days be cut short! I am soo pissed. Linda this blog has opened my eyes to so many things about this country. Apart from being ethnocentric, we never see anything good in anybody. I hate the people in this country. God has seen our character and he has designed it that we have this evil leaders to continue ruling us. I keep saying it, we deserve the kinds of leaders we get! We are terrible people. The way we think and what we do. Never happy for anybody. Ever since I started reading your blog, people don't say good about anybody. Even when it is glaring that this person is doing well or the person looks beautiful. Some things look funny though but not everything is bad. We. Should give honour when its due. But what amuses me is, as much as we hate each other, even among ethnic sentiments,once someone from another country insult us, we all stand together and insult back. Doesn't that say something. Seems we just love the name "Nigeria" yet our house is not in order.

Anonymous said...

goodluck to them. But my country men there is no need running people down, just wait till judgement day before you will be sure if heaven is yours. for me oo, let every pregnant woman have a safe delivery in Jesus Name Amen. the sin is not the pregnancy. Pregnancy can never be sin. Sin is fornication, and I beleive most people here have done it before or will do it in future.
