BOGOTA: Shakira apparently is showing off her new romance.

The Colombian singer's Twitter site carries a photo of her in the arms of Barcelona football star, Gerard Pique.

It is labeled: “I present my sun to you.” That's a play on the name of her latest album, “Sale el Sol,” or “The Sun Comes Out.”

The singer's press office in Colombia confirmed that it is her official Twitter site.

Neither Shakira nor Pique have officially confirmed they are seeing one another, despite recently published photos of them kissing.

In January, Shakira announced her separation from Argentine Antonio De la Rua after an 11-year relationship.
