 MADRID (AP) — Spanish prosecutors are charging pop music star Shakira with tax evasion, alleging she failed to pay more than 14.5 million euros ($16.3 million) between 2012 and 2014. 
 
 The charges published Friday allege Shakira listed the Bahamas as her official residence for tax purposes during those years but was in fact living in Spain with her partner, Spanish soccer player Gerard Pique. 
 
 Tax rates are much lower in the Bahamas than in Spain. 
 
 Prosecutors in Barcelona say her travel abroad was for short periods because of professional commitments, while most of the year she stayed in Spain. They want her to pay tax in Spain on her worldwide income. 
 
 The Colombian singer officially moved to Spain for tax purposes in 2015, after having two children by Pique. 
 
 A magistrate will assess whether there is enough evidence to put Shakira on trial. Shakira's representatives said they had no immediate comment. 
 
 Prosecutors want Shakira to pay a bond of 19.4 million euros — the amount they say she owes in tax, plus 33 percent, in accordance with Spanish law. Otherwise, they recommend a court freeze of her assets to that amount. 
 
 Shakira was named in the "Paradise Papers" leaks that detailed the offshore tax arrangements of numerous high-profile individuals, including musical celebrities like Madonna and U2's Bono. 
 
 The documents were obtained by German daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung and investigated by Spanish news website El Confidencial. 
 
 Spain's tax authorities referred their probe to the Barcelona prosecutor's office a year ago. 
 
 Sports celebrities have also been in trouble with Spanish tax authorities, including footballers Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

 Lyrics: 
 
 
 
 Ladies up in here tonight 
 
 No fighting, no fighting 
 
 We got the refugees up in here 
 
 No fighting, no fighting 
 
 
 
 Shakira, Shakira 
 
 
 
 I never really knew that she could dance like this 
 
 She makes a man wants to speak Spanish 
 
 Como se llama (si), bonita (si), mi casa (si, Shakira Shakira), su casa 
 
 Shakira, Shakira 
 
 
 
 Oh baby when you talk like that 
 
 You make a woman go mad 
 
 So be wise and keep on 
 
 Reading the signs of my body 
 
 
 
 And I'm on tonight 
 
 You know my hips don't lie 
 
 And I'm starting to feel it's right 
 
 All the attraction, the tension 
 
 Don't you see baby, this is perfection
– Her "Hips Don't Lie," but her lips might. Spanish prosecutors are charging pop music star Shakira with tax evasion, alleging she failed to pay more than $16.3 million in tax on her worldwide income between 2012 and 2014, reports the AP. The charges published Friday allege Shakira listed the Bahamas as her official residence for tax purposes during those years but was in fact living in Spain with her partner, Spanish soccer player Gerard Pique. Prosecutors in Barcelona say her travel abroad was for short periods because of professional commitments, while most of the year she stayed in Spain, where tax rates are much higher than in the Bahamas. The Colombian singer moved to Spain in 2015, after having two children by Pique. A magistrate will assess whether there is enough evidence to put Shakira on trial. Shakira's representatives said they had no immediate comment. Prosecutors want Shakira to pay a bond of $21.9 million—the amount they say she owes in tax, plus 33%, in accordance with Spanish law. Otherwise, they recommend a court freeze of her assets to that amount. Shakira was named in the "Paradise Papers" leaks that detailed the offshore tax arrangements of numerous high-profile individuals, including musical celebrities like Madonna and U2's Bono. Spain's tax authorities referred their probe to the Barcelona prosecutor's office a year ago. (Shakira reportedly owns an island north of the Bahamas.)
