her early on Latina rock career set her as a household name in many spanish speaking households and her crossover to English music set Her as a global superstar with laundry service her first English album being one of the best selling albums of that year with hits like

her iconic belly dancing Caught the eye of many and was basically trademarked by her song hips don’t lie which they surely don’t

My favorite album and tour 

[Charlotte_the_Harlot]

I'm not a fan of her, I mean I don't have her songs on my playlist
But I really, really do appreciate her talent, I think she is truly talented 
Sometimes I play her videos on youtube, and I see some mean comments, like "she's unlistenable, she sounds like goose" 
People can be so boorish, I understand you don't have to like her, but... 
I was wondering why people can be so rude to her. And I think mediocre persons need to make themselves feel better by offending persons who are uniqe and original, like Shakira is. They can't stand that someone can be so wonderful, while they are like nothing. 
So big thumbs up for Shakira 

[Britneyarmy8]

I was trying to post all the albums before someone else commented

And since that album doesn't have singles or official videos, I decided to pass. I didn't include the stand-alone singles either, but y'all are free to share it, as well as all the music videos that are missing (I only put the lead singles)

My favorite album is Donde Estan Los Ladrones ? I love that entire album.

My fave songs are Te Dejo Madrid, Suerte, Tu, La Tortura, Las De La Intuicion, Hips Dont Lie, Loca Por ti, La Despedida, and Devocion

My least fave album was She Wolf 

Give It Up To Me is so underated, it's such a good song.

Beautiful Liar was also amazing even though the song was bland the video was perfect.
