Shakira is potentially facing prison time due to allegations of tax evasion. The Colombian singer is being investigated for allegedly failing to pay taxes on income earned between 2012 and 2014, totaling around 14.5 million euros. Authorities in Spain claim that Shakira pretended to live in the Bahamas during this time to avoid paying taxes in Spain, where she was actually residing. If found guilty, Shakira could face up to two years in prison and hefty fines.
The singer's representatives have denied any wrongdoing and insist that she has always complied with tax laws in every country where she has worked. However, the investigation is ongoing, and Shakira's legal team is working to resolve the situation. This case is a reminder that even high-profile individuals like Shakira are not immune to legal consequences if they fail to pay their taxes properly.
