Congratulations to Shakira, whose hips did a lot more than lying today as she gave birth to a bouncing baby boy!

The singer gave birth in Barcelona, according to an email Nicerazzi received from her publicists just moiments ago:

“We are happy to announce the birth of Milan Piqué Mebarak, son of Shakira Mebarak and Gerard Piqué, born January 22nd at 9:36pm, in Barcelona, Spain,” the statement began. “The name Milan (pronounced MEE-lahn), means dear, loving and gracious in Slavic; in Ancient Roman, eager and laborious; and in Sanskrit, unification.”

Getting light-hearted for a moment, the proud parents joked that little Milan is a huge fan of his Dad’s favorite soccer team. “Just like his father, baby Milan became a member of FC Barcelona at birth,” the publicists teased. “The hospital confirmed that the couple’s first child weighed approximately 6lbs. 6 ounces, and that both mother and child are in excellent health.”

Congratulations to Shakira and Gerard on the birth of their first child, from everyone at Nicerazzi!
