Singer and performer Shakira appeared on The Tonight Show by Jimmy Fallon last week to promote her new show Dancing with Myself.
The episode, which was viewed by millions of eager fans, had a segment named “Watch It Once TikTok Challenge” that went viral on social media.
In the segment, Shakira and Fallon tried to match viral TikTok dance steps by looking at the original choreography once and the person matching the dance steps the most was declared the winner.
For the first part of the segment, Shakira and Fallon both danced to the beats of Jiggle Jiggle, a rap mix that recently went viral after two theatre performers Jess Qualter and Brooke Blewitt posted a snazzy TikTok video on the song.
The second dance was on Shakira’s own Te Felicito. As Shakira aced the choreography in the first go, Falon said, “You’re Shakira! It’s not fair!”. After Shakira won the challenge, and that too in high heels, the internet went gaga over the 45-year-old diva.
