Shakira Has A Whale Of A Time With Boyfriend Gerard Pique At Miami Seaquarium

Shakira has a somewhat troubled past with creatures of the sea.

It was only earlier this year that she got bitten by a sea lion, which left her "paralysed with fear" (we know we shouldn't but, LOL), so we're glad to see she's managed to make some aquatic pals at last.

The singer had a whale of a time (thank you, we're here all week) when she and boyfriend Gerard Pique went to Miami Seaquarium.

Shakira - who is rumoured to be pregnant - got up close and personal with the killer whale as the pair posed for photos with the marine mammal.

Shakira expresses her 'sensual and exotic side' (video)

Shakira released a new frangrance, Elixir, said to have an exotic aroma, distinguishing it from the artist’s previous two scents.

"After my two scents, I wanted to do something different. I wanted to take the idea further and develop a fragrance that could express my most sensual and exotic side. The result is Elixir. We have worked with the concept of a 'second skin,' a fragrance that becomes part of you, "said the Barranquilla native.

Elixir, which has touches of orange, white pepper, white flower, the heart of freesia, peony, apricot leather, cedar wood, amber, benzoin, musk and sugar cane, was created in collaboration with Spanish perfume company Puig and specialist Elisabeth Vidal.

"This scent is dedicated to a young audience that wants to explore their own power and its mysteries," said Jose Manuel Albesa, head of Puig.
Shakira’s first two fragrances, “S” and Eau Florale were met with glowing reviews from the pop star’s loyal fans.
