Colombian pop princess Shakira has been supported on social media after widely shared images purportedly showed fans of French football giants Paris Saint-Germain with a banner insinuating she was a prostitute.
The pop diva, 44, is the long-time girlfriend of footballer Gerard Pique, whose Barcelona team take on French giants PSG in the second leg of their Champions League last 16 clash in Paris this week.
Ahead of the game, images circulated on PSG Ultra accounts apparently showing fans setting off flares and holding banners near the club’s Parc des Princes home.
One of the banners translated as ‘Shakira at La Jonquera’, referring to a town on Spain’s Catalan border with France which is well known for its prostitution.
