One bystander told : "They began to separate everyone, and Shakira appeared with her children and two security agents and they sneaked in. 

"Despite people crying out, Shakira doesn't flinch. The organisation said that they let in whoever they wanted.

"The attitude is what horrifies all the attendees. Everyone was outraged, because it is a very cr**ppy image."

Shakira appeared to be dressed as a cheerleader as she celebrated the spooky season with her children.

The 45-year-old has endured a turbulent year in the spotlight since her split from Barcelona ace Gerard Pique in June.

Rumours swirled that the footballer had strayed - but the former couple announced they were parting ways with "regret".

They share two sons - Milan, 9, and Sasha, 7, - from their ten-year relationship, who they described as their "highest priority".

But Shakira admitted the breakup was the "darkest time of her life" in a recent interview with , implying she had "sacrificed" her career for her children so that Pique's could flourish in Barcelona.

The mum-of-two said she put her work "in second gear" when she moved to Spain "so he could play football and win titles."

Pique has since been pictured with his new girlfriend, 23-year-old Clara Chia.

As well as her separation, Shakira has landed herself in hot water with Spanish authorities amid allegations of tax evasion.

She is alleged to have claimed that she did not live in Spain during these years, while her then-partner Pique was playing for Barcelona.

Tax inspectors spent more than a year tracking Shakira's movements, even visiting her favourite hairdressers in Barcelona and keeping tabs on her social media to try and prove she spent most of her time in Spain.

The pop star, who catapulted to global fame with her 2001 hit "Wherever, Whenever", was previously a tax resident in the Bahamas, and only registered as a full tax resident in Spain in 2015.

A judge in Barcelona has agreed that the singer must go to trial, the exact date of which has not yet been announced, but is expected to be in the coming months.

Spanish prosecutors are pushing for the highest-possible sentence over six separate counts of tax fraud totalling £13million.

Shakira could now face a prison sentence of more than eight years after she rejected a plea deal in July.

The star, who has vehemently denied any wrongdoing, could also be slapped with a £19.2million fine.
