Shakira joined Jimmy Fallon for a little dance during the taping on May 16, Tonight’s Show Starring Jimmy Fall onand proved once again that her hips don’t lie.
The segment was Fallon’s infamous ‘Watch It Once TikTok Challenge’, in which the host and his contestant watch a TikTok video with a dance number just once and then attempt to recreate it. This, of course, is not as easy as it sounds and often results in hilarious re-enactments that are soon to be laughed at.
“This is how this works; Shakira and I are going to see a TikTok dance once, we are only going to see it once and we will do our best to recreate it. Whoever moves closest to the original wins the game,” Fallon explained. Shakira immediately felt confident that she was going to win the challenge, but Fallon reminded her that, after all, this is her show.
This time, the couple watched the video twice, because it was definitely hard to understand the first time. However, twice was the maximum, and both tried the dance immediately after. Fallon went first, and she certainly did her best, but as we all know, dancing is in Shakira’s blood, she comes as naturally to her as walking.
Fallon suggested that they try another dance, and this time it was one of Shakira’s. Fallon defended himself with the superstar, but his hips continued to speak the truth as he moved through the song.
