Fans attending Shakira’s current Shakira world tour are getting a special treat tied to the hit animated film Zootopia 2. The multi-GRAMMY Award-winning artist has added the song Zoo to the setlist for her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran tour, bringing the music from the Walt Disney Animation Studios production to life on stage.
Shakira, who reprises her role as the pop star Gazelle in the sequel, co-wrote the track alongside Ed Sheeran and Blake Slatkin. The live performance features thematic elements from the movie, including tiger background dancers and Gazelle horns. The song was produced by Slatkin, Alex Castillo, Shakira, and Sheeran.
A Franchise Streaming Milestone
The inclusion of the song on her tour coincides with the film’s availability on streaming platforms. Zootopia 2 is currently available to watch on Disney+. The platform has also consolidated the entire franchise into a single collection, which includes the original Academy Award-winning feature and the anthology series Zootopia+.
The sequel has seen significant success since its release, holding the title of the highest-grossing animated MPA release of all time globally. For fans of the franchise, the ability to stream the latest installment alongside the original film and the spin-off series provides a complete look at the expanding world of the animal metropolis.
Touring and Musical Success
Shakira’s current tour supports her twelfth studio album, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, which earned a GRAMMY Award for Best Latin Album. The tour is scheduled to continue through the fall with stops in North America, Europe, and the Middle East. The integration of the Zootopia 2 anthem into such a high-profile global tour highlights the continued cultural impact of the animated franchise.
