"Shakira is also a pop star with both a brain and a conscience. Her compassionate side is most obvious in the remarkable work of her Pies Descalzos (Barefoot) Foundation, which she started at the age of 18 and which has now opened its sixth school. The foundation currently provides education and nutrition to over six thousand impoverished children in Colombia and is expanding its work to other countries, including newly launched projects in Haiti and South Africa.

Shakira has also become a leading advocate for Education and Early Childhood Development, proving herself to be as adept at making compelling speeches to world leaders or to the students at Oxford University as she is performing to tens of thousands of fans at her shows. She is a Unicef Goodwill Ambassador and, in October 2011, President Obama appointed her to the President¹s Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanics."

You say you are from the USA but you can't even speak English. Get an education before you make ignorant, negative remarks. I'm not Latin but I respect all that Shakira does and how talented she is. Your comments only make you look like an idiot.
