Shakira poses nude for Unicef

A UNICEF-hosted website invites those attending the virtual baby shower to buy gifts costing as little as $5, which can buy a mosquito net to ensure a sleeping baby stays safe from malaria — a leading cause of child deaths worldwide. Guests can spend $10 for polio vaccines to protect 17 children, or $37 for a baby scale.

“To celebrate the arrival of our first child, we hope that, in his name, other less privileged children in the world can have their basic needs covered through gifts and donations,” reads a message from the 35-year-old Colombian superstar, a goodwill ambassador for the UN children’s agency, and Pique. “Thank you for sharing this unforgettable moment with us.”

Fans can join the couple's online baby shower by visiting their virtual living room. They can then purchase an "Inspired Gift," which are life-saving items distributed to children in need. The Voice mentor's fans can buy a $5 mosquito net, $10 polio vaccine, $37 baby-weighing scale or $110 Therapeutic Food that helps malnourished children.

 After purchasing a gift, donors will receive a personal thank you message from Shakira and Pique. 

"Every expectant parent around the world shares all the same hopes and dreams for their children that we do," Shakira, who is expecting a baby boy, says. "Yet many don’t share the same opportunities. Together we know we can change that."
