Shakira‘s a she-wolf … and, she has been set free in a big way — ’cause she’s performing with the support of a giant metallic member of her pack.

The singer-songwriter closed out the first night of her new tour singing her latest big hit, “BZRP: Music Sessions, Vol. 53,” with a huge wolf prop appearing onstage as the “Loba” delivered an epic stage comeback after 8 years away.

To add to the aura, the Canis lupus also doggy-paddled into the realm of science fiction … with cool lasers shooting out of its eyes during the performance — adding to its intimidation factor.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen giant animals onstage … ’cause Taylor Swift whipped out a snake during her “Reputation” set and Beyoncé rocked a massive metallic horse during her “Renaissance” tour.

Shakira opened up her new tour in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil belting out bangers that go all the way back to the beginning of her career, such as “Estoy Aqui,” before getting into her more recent tracks — like the aforementioned ‘BZRP: Music Sessions,’ which catapulted her to the top of the charts last year.

Long known as a she-wolf — capturing her persona as a fierce, strong woman — Shakira went through a tumultuous time the last few years after her marriage with Gerard Pique blew up … rumors of infidelity on his part swirling as they divorced. She bared her soul in interviews … and, on her new album.

Shakira has a series of performances in Latin America coming up … taking her from Peru to Argentina to her home country of Colombia. She’ll hit the U.S.A. in May, ending her tour on the West Coast.

The feud between Patrick Mahomes Sr. and John Rocker clearly didn’t end after they were separated on Bourbon St. last week … as the two spent most of their Tuesday nights hurling insults at one another.

The barbs came just a few hours after video of the guys getting in a heated shouting match in New Orleans went viral.

First, it was Rocker who stated he wished he had “ruined” Mahomes’ “bulls*** weekend even more” by punching him during their dust-up. Then it was Mahomes Sr. replying that he wanted Rocker to “keep my name out your loud mouth.”

In a different post, John wrote, “F*** PATRICK MAHOMES.”

Mahomes Sr.’s final jab of the night included the proclamation that “John Rocker is a menace to society.”

It’s totally unclear why the two former MLB pitchers are all of a sudden beefing … although there’s been speculation the squabbling could simply be an effort to promote an upcoming celebrity boxing match.

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy said just days before their Super Bowl week clash that he expected the two to throw hands at one of his upcoming Rough ‘N’ Rowdy boxing events … although there’s yet to be any sort of formal fight announcement.

Kim Kardashian is ripping a page out of Bianca Censori‘s style book and the two now look alike … according to some people on social media.

Here’s the deal … KK posted an Instagram video showing her latest SKIMS campaign, which captures the reality star as an angel called the “Fairy Butt Mother.” She’s sporting a glittering cream-colored leotard with stockings and high heels while holding a magic wand.

KK’s outfit is similar to Bianca’s sheer bodysuit that exposed her entirely — private parts and all — on the red carpet at the Grammys, which caused a major stir as everyone knows.

Another said: “Looks like Bianca on the red carpet.”

Two more people wrote they thought Kim was Bianca.

This isn’t the first time Bianca and Kim have been seen as dead ringers. Last December, Bianca was photographed walking around L.A. as the spitting image of Kim in a black leather coat, black shades and black stiletto boots.
