Background and release

After the tickets of the North American leg of The El Dorado World Tour, which was launched to promote Shakira's eleventh studio album El Dorado (2017), were sold-out, she confirmed footage from the tour would be filmed and released and announced a show to be held at The Forum in Inglewood, California.

On 27 August 2018, Shakira posted a video and then made a survey on her Twitter account about which one of the three Balmain shirts she alternately wore during the first section of the concert would be chosen for a next tour date.[1] The day after that, Hans Nelson, a tour crew member, posted on his Instagram account that indeed the two concerts to be held at The Forum, Los Angeles, California, would be taped for a future live DVD release.[2] On the date of the rescheduled second show in the city, the singer herself confirmed through her social networks that the concert of that day would be recorded for a concert film.[3] Soon after the tour ended, Shakira announced she has started the editing process of the tour DVD.[4]

Promotion

On 8 November 2019, Shakira confirmed the release of a live album on 13 November, along with the live version of "Chantaje" featuring Maluma as the album's lead single.

On November 13 and 15, 2019; a recording of the show in Los Angeles at The Forum was released in selected cinemas around the world.[5]

Critical reception

Nuria Net of Rolling Stone gave the film and live album a positive review calling it Shakira's "Triumphant Return to Singing". Net noted how the film was more directed towards Shakira's return and does not dwell too much on the painful episode of Shakira's vocal-cord hemorrhage injury.

Alex Stölk of Medium also gave the film and live album a positive review stating how Shakira "Shines Once Again".

Awards
