Just four days remain until Shakira and Rihanna unleash their hotly anticipated new single ‘Can’t Remember To Forget You’. So what better time than the present to whip up heightened buzz with the cut’s official cover?!

Unveiled moments ago, the stunning shot has some wondering if its indicative of the song’s subject matter. Who knows. What is certain though is that both ladies look lush!

‘Can’t Remember To Forget You’ arrives on January 13th.
