‘Hip’s Don’t Lie’ singer Shakira, 35, confirmed on her website yesterday that she is pregnant with her first child.

The entertainer wrote, “As some of you may know, boyfriend Gerard Piqué and I are very happily awaiting the arrival of our first baby! At this time we have decided to give priority to this unique moment in our lives and postpone all the promotional activities planned over the next few days.”

“This means I will not be able to be a part of the iHeartRadio Music Festival … I’d like to thank Clear Channel and my fans for their constant love and understanding. Big kiss!”

The singer has been in a relationship with Pique, 25, since March 2011. He is a central defender for Spain’s pro football club FC Barcelona.

Earlier this week NBC reported that Shakira will be replacing Christina Aguilera as a judge on ‘The Voice’ during season four.
