Singer Shakira and her fiancé Gerard Pique have released their final image before Shakira gives birth to their new child "Ulicito."

The picture reveals Shakira's belly with Pique and the singer posing for the camera. The couple stated on Twitter that they were ready for their child and that he will be born in first days of February.

The couple revealed the pregnancy on September 19 and have since allowed their fans to follow the pregnancy through twitter by posting updates and photos. The couple also invited their fans to a virtual Baby Shower in which followers had the opportunity to donate to the organization for infants UNICEF.

The couple met in 2010 on the set of Shakira's music video "Waka Waka" and confirmed that they were dating in 2011 when she revealed a picture of them on her Twitter account. The centre-back for Barcelona Pique recently fooled fans on December 27th when he posted that the baby had been born. However it was a "Dia de los Innocentes" joke, the equivalent of April Fools in the United States.

Shakira follows in the footsteps of such celebrities Britney Spears, Demi Moore, and Jessica Simpson who posed nude during their last few weeks of pregnancy. However unlike these others she did not pose for a magazine.
