Shakira has truly embodied her animated counterpart, Gazelle, from Disney’s Zootopia, capturing both her physical attributes and her spirit. At the Los Angeles premiere, the 39-year-old Colombian singer donned a lovely pink Mac Duggal skater dress adorned with neon rose buds. The outfit, featuring a Peter Pan collar and a flared skirt, exuded a demure elegance while allowing Shakira to showcase her enviable legs and height with towering heels. Completing her look was a cute clutch bag, adding a touch of charm to her ensemble.

In the film, Shakira not only lends her voice to Gazelle but also played a role in shaping the character’s appearance. Initially finding Gazelle too slender, Shakira advocated for a curvier figure, ensuring her animated persona mirrored her own curves and style. This involvement extended beyond mere appearance; Shakira’s voice acting was integral to capturing Gazelle’s emotions, with animators animating the character based on her recorded expressions.

Shakira’s commitment to Gazelle goes beyond aesthetics; she sees a reflection of herself in the character’s spirit, describing Gazelle as opinionated yet socially responsible. This connection underscores Shakira’s dedication to bringing depth and authenticity to her animated alter-ego.

Throughout the promotional events for Zootopia, including the Barcelona and Los Angeles premieres, Shakira has effortlessly blended her own flair with Gazelle’s animated charm, embodying the essence of the character she portrays on screen.
