Shakira has a bun in the oven

  • September 20, 2012
  • Darren Sharp

The child-bearing hips don't lie: Shakira is pregnant, the popstar has revealed in a statement on her Facebook.

"As some of you may know, Gerard and I are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby!" she said. "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."

"This means I will not be able to be a part of the iHeartRadio Music Festival, but I’m sure this weekend in Las Vegas will be spec­tac­u­lar and I will be closely following everything that happens there!"

There you have it. The miracle of life, ladies and gentlemen.
