Which pop star voiced the character Gazelle in Zootopia?

Shakira voiced the pop star Gazelle in Zootopia.

Gazelle is a celebrated singer and performer in the film’s animal metropolis. Her concerts attract huge crowds, and her public image helps establish music and celebrity culture within Zootopia’s diverse society. Shakira’s recognizable voice and performance style suit the character’s status as a global superstar.

Shakira’s involvement went beyond voice acting. She also performed “Try Everything,” Gazelle’s signature song in the film. The track plays a prominent role in the story’s musical identity and was written by Sia and the songwriting-and-production duo Stargate.

A frequent mix-up is treating Gazelle as a real-world cameo rather than a fictional character voiced by Shakira. Gazelle is an anthropomorphic Thomson’s gazelle, while Shakira is the human recording artist who supplies her voice and sings her music. Shakira returned as Gazelle for the Zootopia franchise’s later projects.
