The Celebrity Truth

What appears to be an April Fools Day joke has been exposed as just that, with a representative for singer Shakira denying the existence of a sex tape involving her boyfriend and another singer, labelling the claims as "baseless and malicious".

Peopleenespanol.com reports that the rumor was started when Argentinean radio announcer Javier Ceriani stated, "It’s been said a lot these days that there is a private video recorded on a yacht, one that could implicate Alejandro Sanz, Shakira and [her boyfriend] Antonio de la Rúa, but that tape is in the hands of the courts."

A representative for Shakira has denied the tape exists, describing the claim as "totally absurd".

"This is a false rumor. This is totally absurd any way you look at it. There is no possibility that such a video exists. It is a baseless and malicious rumor."
