‘Suerte’ ‘La Tortura’ & More: Which Shakira No. 1 Hit Is Your Favorite? Vote!

Happy birthday, Shakira! Billboard is celebrating the Colombian artist’s 47th birthday on Friday (Feb. 2) with her biggest hits on the Hot Latin Songs chart.

Last year, Shak made a triumphant comeback to music with her first single of 2023, “BZRP Music Sessions, Vol. 53.” The Bizarrap-assisted track became the Argentine producer’s first No. 1 hit on the tally, while Shak raked in her 12th (at the time), and her first No. 1 hit since 2016’s “Chantaje,” one of her many Maluma collaborations, which spent 11 weeks at top of the chart.

She later hit No. 1 with the unapologetic and empowering “TQG,” her first collaborative effort with Karol G; it crowned the chart for five weeks.

Of “Vol. 53’s” massive success, she previously expressed on Instagram: “What for me was a catharsis and a relief, I never thought that I would reach No. 1 globally at 45 years old and in [singing in] Spanish. I want to hug the millions of women who rise up against those who make us feel insignificant. Women who defend what they feel and think, and raise their hands when they disagree, even if others raise their eyebrows. They are my inspiration.” In the electro-pop tune, she belts witty punchlines directed to her ex-boyfriend and soccer star Piqué and his new girlfriend, Clara Chia Martí.

Shak’s first-ever No. 1 hit on the Hot Latin Songs chart arrived in 1998 with “Ciega, Sordomuda,” and she’s charted regularly ever since. Up to now, the sultry “La Tortura” (2005) with Alejandro Sanz has remained her longest-leading No. 1 title at 25 weeks. 

In honor of birthday, here are all of her 13 titles to crown the charts. Which one is your favorite? Vote below!
