Shakira Welcomes Baby Boy And His Name Is...



Shakira is a new mom!

The singer and her man, footballer Gerard Piqué, welcomed their first child, a son, today, according to People en Español. The wee lad's name? Milan!

Shakira had tweeted earlier today about the impending birth. "I'd like to ask you all to accompany me in your prayers on this very important day of my life. Shak," she tweeted this morning, in both English and Spanish.

“We are happy to announce the birth of Milan Piqué Mebarak, son of Shakira Mebarak and Gerard Piqué, born Jan. 22nd at 9:36 p.m., in Barcelona, Spain,” the couple announce on Shakira’s website.

“The name Milan (pronounced MEE-lahn), means dear, loving and gracious in Slavic; in Ancient Roman, eager and laborious; and in Sanskrit, unification. Just like his father, baby Milan became a member of FC Barcelona at birth.”

Milan weighed approximately 6 lbs., 6 oz., with both mother and child in excellent health, the hospital says in a statement.
