Shakira is putting her legal worries behind her in the best way possible.

On Thursday, the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer, 46, picked up eight awards at Premios Juventud 2023 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, including those for best song, best Female artist — and a special honor for being an agent of change.

"So grateful to all of you for these 8 awards!!! I didn't expect so much! ❤️ Thank you@premiosjuventud," Shakira posted on Instagram afterward, alongside a video of her collecting an award wearing a chic red mini-dress.

The Colombian singer also celebrated her triumphs by hugging sons Sasha, 8, and Milan, 10, whom she shares with her ex, former Barcelona footballer Gerard Piqué, 36.

The couple, who announced their separation in a joint statement in June 2022, raised their children in the beachside city in Spain's Catalonia region, before Shakira left Barcelona for Miami with her children in April.

Shakira's awards follow an announcement Thursday that she is facing a second tax fraud case in Spain.

Almost 10 months after the singer, 46, was ordered to stand trial in her $13.9 million tax evasion case in the country, she has now been hit with another investigation liked to alleged fraud on personal income tax and wealth tax in 2018, reported Reuters,
