Andrew Tate makes bizarre claim about global superstar Shakira

Controversial media personality Andrew Tate is well-known for his polarizing views. His most recent take on Twitter, however, targets global superstar Shakira.

The Colombian singer and songwriter's career has spanned over three decades across various genres of music amongst Hispanic and English language audiences. Her Arab heritage is also a prominent feature of her music.

Shakira has been the recipient of six Grammy Award nominations and has won three of them. She won Best Latin Pop Album in 2001 and 2018 and Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album in 2006. She recently separated from her longtime partner and former FC Barcelona defender Gerard Pique.

In his tweet, Andrew Tate admitted to having seen Shakira's face thousands of times but also stated that she had a forgettable face that he would not recognize. Tate's tweet lacks context and does not seem to be inspired by any recent events, therefore it's questionable as to why he felt the need to share this observation.

Tate wrote:

"I’ve seen her face 10,000 times but for some reason I’m not sure what Shakira looks like. I know that sounds strange. I feel like I could walk past her on the street and not recognise her at all."
