Another week, another sex tape rumor. But unlike the  somewhat harmless photos of good girl Kristin Davis that caught our attention a few weeks back, the news that Shakira and boyfriend Antonio de la Rua may have recorded each other Pam-and-Tommy style aboard a yacht  sounds a bit racier. As one Spanish radio host put it, “if some of this tape’s content would be made public, it could seriously threaten the singer and couple’s private life.” And aside from the prospect of seeing Shakira’s famous curves dancing in dirtier ways we’ve ever seen, the story itself involves a third (and fourth!) party.

As AOL Music reports, Shakira and de la Rua, who’ve since broken up, apparently recorded the on-yacht sex session with a third party, Spanish pop star Alejandro Sanz. Were that true, that would make this as-yet-unreleased tape way pornier than your standard celebrity sex tapes. But the story only gets more sordid once we learn the route this tape has taken into the public spotlight. Apparently, two of Sanz’ ex-employees are under prosecution for stealing the yacht which may or may not be stamped with Shakira’s threesome, um, evidence. Admittedly, we’re no Sam Donaldson (or even Chris Hansen), but we’re pretty sure this joyously means that all contents found on the yacht will eventually be presented to the court. And considering the way Hollywood sex scandals tend to dissolve, those contents will eventually be posted on this site. As soon as possible. We promise.
