And while the Spanish government has been on her neck, the &#8216;Hips Don&#8217;t Lie&#8217; singer is not trynna cough up them coins!</p>
<p>After more than 5 years of investigation into Shakira&#8217;s finances, a Spanish prosecutor is asking that she be sentenced to 8 years in prison for allegedly failing to pay her taxes from 2011-2014. Shakira is reportedly fighting the case, claiming that she did not live in Spain during that time period.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/spanish-prosecutor-asks-8-year-jail-term-shakira-el-pais-reports-2022-07-29/">Reuters</a>, prosecutors are asking for an eight-year prison sentence and a fine of $23.5 million. The legal documents state that Shakira was a resident in Spain between 2012 and 2014 and purchased a family home in Barcelona in May 2012.</p>
<p>Shakira claims she paid 17.2 million euros ($17.5 million) that the Spanish government said she owed back in 2018.</p>
<p>A representative for the singer reportedly stated that she is &#8220;fully confident of her innocence&#8221; and that she believes the case is &#8220;a total violation of her rights.&#8221;</p>
<p>Fans across social media are rooting for her to beat the case in hilarious reactions.</p>
