Tom Cruise and Shakira were seen exiting early from the starting line to seek privacy in a private hospitality room. Security escorted the two stars away from the track as the racers were still being introduced before the race.
A fan even recorded a video of Tom and Shakira engaged in an "animated conversation" in the VIP area, where one of the singer's sons was also allegedly present.
Although there is no concrete proof of a romantic relationship between the two stars, rumors have swirled since both are reportedly single.
Meanwhile, Tom Cruise is reportedly interested in pursuing a romantic relationship with Shakira after the pair were seen together at the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami over the weekend, according to an exclusive report by Page Six.
An insider revealed that there is chemistry between the two and that Cruise has a few advantages in his corner, including his good looks and talents.
The 60-year-old actor is unmarried, while Shakira recently split from Gerard Pique, with whom she shares two children.
The insider also joked that Cruise's 5'7" height could make him a "comfortable cushion to fall on" for the 5'2" singer.
A reliable source told Page Six that Cruise even brought flowers to Shakira as a gesture of affection.
Shakira Slammed Gerard Pique Before Meeting Tom Cruise in Miami
During Saturday night's Latin Women in Music gala, Shakira accepted her award as Billboard's first "Woman of the Year" by highlighting women's strength and taking a shot at her ex-partner, Gerard Pique.
"This has been a year of seismic change in my life where I've felt more than ever and very personally what it is to be a woman. And what it means," she stated in Spanish, as translated by Billboard.
She declared that women are "stronger than we think, braver than we believed, more independent than we were taught to be."
However, Shakira also acknowledged that every woman, at some point in her life, had "forgotten herself" while seeking the attention and love of someone else, which she admitted had happened to her several times.
"But there comes a time in every woman's life where she no longer depends on someone else to love and accept herself just as she is," Shakira continued. "It is a time when the search for oneself replaces the search for someone else."
Shakira added, "It is a time when the desire to be perfect is replaced by the desire to be authentic, and when finding someone who is faithful is less important than being faithful to ourselves."
