Shakira confirmed yesterday that she is leaving the popular NBC reality singing competition ‘The Voice’ at the end of the season.

The entertainer told Access Hollywood that she may try another stint in the future but “not for next season, for sure. I have to get back to my baby — give him some love and dedicate some time to him and also to the new album that I’m working on.”

Shakira, 36, gave birth to son Milan on January 22, 2013 in Barcelona, Spain, where she resides with her 26-year-old boyfriend and baby daddy Gerard Pique. He is a Spanish footballer who plays as a central defender for FC Barcelona.

Several weeks after her baby was born, the Columbian singer-songwriter head to L.A., where she hooked up with Usher as the newest cast members on ‘The Voice.’

The Top 10 contestants on ‘The Voice’ will take the stage next Monday, with Season 4 wrapping on June 18, 2013.
