The Pandora Papers has about 12 million leaked documents of rich and powerful people's hidden wealth, tax avoidance, and money laundering.

Over the weekend, influential people's worlds were rocked after the massive leak of private financial documents published online by several news organizations.

The secret documents were released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) to see if there is any proof that the global elite and world leaders named in the papers broke corresponding tax laws.

Among those mentioned in the document are current and former billionaires, but ICIJ journalists also alleged three influential celebrities set up PO box companies in the British Virgin Islands, Panama, or the Bahamas.

Latin pop star Shakira was mentioned in the document, who reportedly has three companies registered in the British Virgin Islands - Light Productions Limited, Light Tours Limited, and Titania Management Inc.

Per reports, the "Hips Don't Lie" singer continued to open off-shore companies even when she was investigated by tax authorities in Spain three years ago.

British singer-songwriter Elton John has also been exposed in the Pandora Papers.

According to reports, the "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" singer owns more than a dozen companies registered on the same islands. His husband, David Furnish, is also named "Director" in some of those.

Ringo Starr is also being accused of the same thing as Elton John and Shakira.

Spanish star Julio Iglesias was also mentioned in the documents, claiming that he has a lot of companies in tax havens such as in the British Virgin Islands and nine mansions in Miami.

Reports claim that all of those are off-shore.
