Shakira’s captivating allure in her photos is sure to captivate your heart. Born as Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll in Barranquilla, Colombia, she has made her mark as a global sensation in the music industry, as well as a talented dancer, entrepreneur, and humanitarian. At the tender age of 13, she released her first album, Magia, in collaboration with Sony Music Columbia. Two years later, she followed up with her second studio album, Peligro.
Despite both albums not achieving great commercial success, she did receive some recognition as her songs were played on the radio. It wasn’t until her debut international albums, Pies Descalzos (1996) and DóndeEstán Los Ladrones? (1998), that she started to gain more prominence.
With her fifth album, Laundry Service, and the smash hit “Whenever, Wherever,” she quickly became a sensation in English-speaking communities in 2002.
After her initial success, she continued to release more hit albums, including Fijación Oral, Volumen Uno, and Oral Fixation, Volume Two in 2005, as well as She Wolf and Sale el Sol. These albums further established her as a powerhouse in the music industry and cemented her status as one of the most popular musical artists around.
Her official 2010 FIFA Song WakaWaka (This Time For Africa) brought her even more success, as it became the top-selling World Cup song with over 10 million downloads. WakaWaka also became one of the most-watched music videos on Youtube, garnering over 2 million views.
It’s no secret that Shakira has racked up an impressive collection of accolades throughout her career. She has snagged 3 Grammy Awards, 13 Latin Grammy Awards, 4 MTV Video Music Awards, 7 Billboard Music Awards, and a whopping 39 Billboard Latin Music Awards. Not to mention, she’s also been in the running for a Golden Globe nomination.
She is among the select few with a coveted spot on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and has sold over 75 million records worldwide, solidifying her status as one of the top-selling music artists globally. In addition to all of her musical success, Shakira also serves as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF.
