It seems that not everything is over between Shakira and Antonio De La Rúa, and we don't mean simply a working relationship between the two, but rather a love that simply hasn't quite ended yet. This weekend, the singer took advantage of her stay in Punta del Este, Uruguay, where she performed in concert, to stay an extra day and lend a hand in the private birthday celebration held at De La Rúa's ranch.
Along with his parents, brother and a group of 100, Shakira arrived at Punta del Este on Sunday at 5 a.m. on a private jet from Buenos Aires. Earlier she performed at the exclusive Hotel Conrad, where she stayed despite having a property in the city.
De La Rúa was also in the city, assisting with her concert, despite keeping a low profile. The following day, De La Rúa, who marked his 38th birthday, celebrated privately on his ranch and was given a big surprise.
Accompanied by his parents, in an arrangement set up by De La Rúa's brother, the singer arrived quietly at the party, without much fanfare or being seen by the birthday boy, who suspected the singer wouldn't show, or that her current boyfriend, Gerard Piqué, wouldn't allow it. Read the story: Shakira breaks silence about Piqué.
Several attendees at the party said they found De La Rúa and Shakira very warm toward each other, affectionate and close, embracing on more than one occasion, caressing, smiling and whispering secretly in each other's ear. And there are even those who swore there was talk of reconciliation that evening, and perhaps a new start for the pair, who were together for 11 years. Check out Shakira and Piqué snapped holding hands.

Well that's not nice, AJ. After 11 years together there has to be lingering feelings of love and friendship on both parts..... So, what has she done to earn the title "wench"?
So, SHEMPBAT, what you're saying is that because she HAS a boyfriend she can't be friends with her former boyfriend of 11 years or she's a wench??? Sad soul you both are. Sad, sad misguided souls....
Oh yea my original comment was I think that maybe she moves on because they get too attached to their money. A marriage can break that up and spend it quick.
Troy Aikman? YOU are losing it, dude. Shakira's hot...Troy is not. Get some glasses and put away the binoculars [now you know why they call them the cheap seats].
Wow Albert, you must be tone deaf!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To move the way she does, and sing that awesomely at the same time, I'd say she's a natural talent!!!!!!!!!!!
