Shakira's life has been hectic since she arrived in the United States a few months ago to settle permanently in Miami with her sons Sasha and Milan, following her break-up with Gerard Pique.

There have been various rumors that she could be getting back into the dating market, however.

In the US city, the Colombian singer is always very busy, both professionally and personally.

Many stars and celebrities live in Miami, which means that she is opening up and expanding her circle of friends.

Cruise at the Grand Prix

For example, at the Miami Formula 1 Grand Prix, the Colombian could be seen in the company of a well-known actor, Tom Cruise.

At the Grand Prix, Shakira was also seen dining and sailing with Lewis Hamilton.

This male companionship has sparked rumours of a possible new relationship for the singer, with the British F1 driver supposedly being the best positioned.

But it seems he is not the only suitor for Shakira as more recently the Colombian has been seen watching a Miami Heat NBA playoffs game.

Although she could have been doing nothing more than just being entertained, there could be a hidden interest that had not been revealed.

NBA star is a fan of Shakira

That was all until several media outlets started reporting that there could be a connection between Shakira and Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler.

Butler has been in good form in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, where his team have a 3-1 lead over the Boston Celtics, who won game four on Tuesday night in Miami.

It seems that the NBA player and the Colombian star started to follow each other on Instagram, with the move being picked up by many fans on social media.

We'll see what happens and if Shakira gets a partner again, after definitively moving on from Pique.
