The Colombian singer Shakira and the Mexican actor Manuel García-Rulfo have ignited romance rumors on social networks after being caught leaving the Sunset Tower Hotel, located in Los Angeles.

The images of the “Hips don't lie” singer and the protagonist of “Jurassic World Rebirth” emerged from the Instagram platform, where the user deuxmoi reported the sighting and confirmed that both celebrities left the meeting place in the actor's vehicle.

For her part, the Grammy winner showed off her shapely figure in tight jeans and a top with a “v” neckline. The look was accompanied by high-heeled boots and a leather jacket that she chose to remove at the end of the night, as revealed in the photographs.

Meanwhile, Manuel García-Rulfo avoided curious glances with a 'total black look' of matching pants, shirt and jacket.

Although Shakira and Manuel García-Rulfo kept their distance at the exit, the smiles and knowing glances they shared during the evening at the Sunset Tower Hotel and upon their departure from the venue did not go unnoticed by the public.

"I had never thought about it, but wow! They look great together", "Mexican charm", "Good for me Shak, he deserves to be happy", "If our man has to be with someone, at least it is with Shakira Shakira" and "They are both gorgeous", are some of the reactions that were recorded after the images were released.

The sighting of Shakira and Manuel García-Rulfo occurs just a few days after the performer was one of the guest artists at the opening ceremony of the 2026 World Cup that took place on June 11 at the emblematic Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.

However, this is not the only professional success that the dancer has also scored recently. Just this weekend she began her “Las Mujeres no ya Lloran” tour in the United States, receiving a great reception from the public.

Regarding personal matters, Shakira confessed in an interview with People magazine that she is currently in a moment of growth and total focus on her children. "I'm just thinking about raising my children. I don't see that for now. Maybe when they're older (…) Through those difficult times, I discovered how resilient we are." Could it be that the Mexican actor made her rethink this idea?

Who is Manuel García-Rulfo, the heartthrob with whom Shakira was caught?

Manuel García-Rulfo is a 45-year-old actor, born in Guadalajara, Jalisco, in Mexico. He has gained international fame thanks to his portrayal of defense attorney 'Mickey Haller' in the hit Netflix series “The Lincoln Lawyer.”

In addition to this, he was part of the main cast of “Jurassic World Rebirth” along with Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey. As if that were not enough, his portfolio also includes productions such as: “Pedro Páramo” and “The Magnificent Seven” with Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt.

As a curious fact, Shakira's possible beau is a relative (distant nephew) of the famous Mexican writer Juan Rulfo, author of the emblematic story Pedro Páramo and considered one of the most important Latin American writers of the 20th century.​​​
