Spanish prosecutors are calling for Colombian pop megastar Shakira to be sentenced to eight years in prison, and fined 23.5 million euros for tax fraud. The case claims that Shakira did not pay 14.5 million euros in taxes between 2012 and 2014, a time in which the Spanish government claims she was “ordinarily resident in Spain.”

Shakira asserts that she did not live in Spain during that period, and that she has since paid the over 17 million euros she owed, including 3 million euros in interest. Shakira has already declined a settlement, and has proclaimed complete confidence in her innocence, calling the accusations a violation of her rights. There is currently no date set for the trial.

Shakira bought a home in Barcelona in 2012, and her son was born in Spain in 2013, where the family spent time with Shakira’s partner FC Barcelona star Gerard Piqué. The pair have recently split after he was found to be cheating on her.

While the proposed sentencing is startling, seeing as they already tried to settle out of court, it is unlikely to come to that. Plus, with the confidence Shakira and her legal team seem to have in her innocence, one would hope that her taxes, as well as her hips, don’t lie.
