The Colombian superstar told RTL, "This guy [Piqué] is the best thing that ever happened to me in my whole life. And now we're having a baby."

Shakira is very involved with UNICEF and her own charity organization, the Barefoot Foundation, and hopes she can teach her future son the importance of giving back.

"[When] this little baby here . . . comes out of my body," she told RTL in the video, "He'll have to understand that he needs to be an agent of change. He can be an agent of change."
