Shakira
Born Feb. 2, 1977
Shakira, born Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, is a Colombian singer, musician, dancer and philanthropist. She emerged in the Latin music scene in the early 1990s and reached stardom for her distinct style of rock when she released Pies Descalzos in Latin America in 1995. After her crossover pop single “Whenever, Wherever” was released in 2001, Shakira found success in the United States and worldwide with her first English album, Laundry Service. She has won two Grammys, seven Latin Grammys and is the highest-selling Colombian artist of all time.
Shakira and The Voice are like an arepa con queso—the perfect combination. As a Voice judge, the Colombian super rockera is charismatic, engaging, insightful and more adorable than puppies on marshmallow clouds (coño, we’re getting hungry now). But we digress. Shakira has also provided viewers with some of the funniest facial expressions on The Voice ever. Here we provide proof in GIFs. Enjoy and share before tonight's first live show!
Shakira put on her boxing gloves last night for The Voice’s Knockout Rounds. The Colombian superstar had a heavy heart in cutting her team in half (from eight to four) but ultimately her decisions gave her a solid chance at winning the competition. Below is a look at the matchups. Tell us if you think Shaki made the right choices.

Performances: Gardner’s chose Alex Clare’s “Too Close” but provided a rendition that was too...
It all came down to Team Shakira’s Mary Miranda/Cathia battle last night on The Voice. The two Latina singers went head-to-head using a…wait for it…Shakira song, Antes de las Seis.” During the rehearsals, Miranda stumbled a bit due to her lack of knowledge of Shakira’s catalogue.
“Mary doesn’t know her parts,” Cathia said of Miranda. “You just can’t go up to Shakira and not sing her song well. You need to know the melody.” Ouch!
Before their joint performance the pair...
Shakira may be preparing for her court battle with ex-boyfriend Antonio de la Rua, who sued the superstar for $100 million, but The Voice judge has just won her case in a different lawsuit with two former employees named Divier Hernández and Maritza de Avila.
The employees, who claimed that the Colombian pop star never paid them for hours worked -- and claimed that Shaki owed them back...
Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber made headlines over the weekend after the Biebs uploaded a photo of both snuggled onto his Instagram account. The 19-year-old has since deleted the photo because, you know, he and the former Disney starlet are broken up… or are they still?
Anyway, the blown-out photo of the former young couple made us think about the other love-induced uploading going on by other celeb couples. Below are the best:
The Voice’s battle rounds continued to boost morale and kill egos last night on NBC. Team Shakira pitted Monique Abbadie against Luke Edgemon with Lady Gaga’s “You And I” as the weapon of choice. Before the singers hit the stage, Abbadie said, “I want to be a Latin pop star like Shakira.”
Once the two started belting out notes, it was clear who was the better singer—Edgemon....
Shakira’s battle with her ex continues.
Reports are flying around that the Colombian superstar has asked a New York judge to dismiss a $250 million lawsuit filed by her ex, Antonio de la Rua. De la Rua, who is the son of former Argentine President Fernando de la Rua, dated Shakira for more than a decade before the two split ways in 2011.
If you recall, the two...
Pentatonix have made our day in a few minutes.

To our delight, Shakira’s famous 2006 song “Hips Don’t Lie” and the classic...
The battle is on! And Shakira came out on top. Last night’s The Voice featured its first batch of battle rounds, where contestants on the same teams duke it out to see who advances. The night’s best battle came by way Team Adam featuring former Michael Jackson backup singer, Judith Hill, and rocker Karina Iglesias singing James Brown’s “It’s a Man’s Man's Man's World.” Hill and Iglesias went toe-to-toe, high note-to-high note, and stage-swag to-stage-swag.
