In a recent interview with a newspaper, Shakira opened up about her vocal haemorrhage because of which she had to postpone her El Dorado World Tour in 2017. In the interview, the mom of two talked about what she went through and her journey back to super-stardom. “I always thought there were going to be things in my life that would go away, like beauty, youth, all of that stuff. But I never thought that my voice would leave me, because it’s so inherent to my nature.
It was my identity. So when I couldn’t sing, that was unbearable. There were times I couldn’t even get out of bed–I was so depressed,” Shakira told The Guardian.
She also shared about the toll it took on her relationship with long-time partner Gerard Pique. “Gerard saw the worst of me,” she added. As per Eonline, although things looked grim and she was told she needed to have surgery, the singer let her vocal cords heal. A film about her El Dorado tour hits theatres on November 13.
