Shakira, on her real name Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll was born on the second of February 1977. She is a nice singer and dancer. Shakira has 145 released tracks and over 95 million records , she has received a lot of awards like: Grammy Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, Latin Grammy Awards, and also she has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
She started all from a young age. Shakira recorded her first album ,Magia, when she was just 13 years old, and from there everything began.
Experts think about her that she has a nice character, a very good spanish accent and her dances are something unbelivable.
My impression about Shakira is an excellent one. At her age she is stunning. At 46 she can do a perfect belly dance . I think that she is a vivacious person and I belive that she is gifted by the God.
