"My sons hate it". Shakira criticizes Barbie movie for "degrading" men's dignity

The famous singer Shakira admitted that her sons, 11-year-old Milan and 8-year-old Sasha, did not like the sensational movie Barbie. The artist noted that she shares the opinion of her children.

She believes that the movie degrades men's dignity. The singer told Allure about this.

According to Shakira, her sons hated Barbie. "I am raising two boys. I want them to feel strong, too, while respecting women. I like pop culture when it tries to empower women without depriving men of the opportunity to be men, to protect and provide as well," she said in the interview.

The singer added that she believes that women should be given everything they need, including faith in their abilities, without losing their essence and femininity. "I believe that men have their own purpose in society, and women have a different purpose. We complement each other, and this complement should not be lost," the celebrity summarized.

"Barbie" is a film directed by Greta Gerwig that exceeded $1.4 billion in global box office receipts in 2023 and received eight Oscar nominations, including Best Picture. In an interview with The New York Times, the director responded to the negative criticism, admitting that she did not expect to face such a reaction. "Barbie is an invitation for everyone to join the party and let go of things that don't necessarily serve us, both women and men," she said, emphasizing the main goal of breaking down stereotypes.
