About Shakira
With her signature blonde hair and athletic build, Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll is a Colombian singer-songwriter who has left an indelible mark on global music. Born in Barranquilla, Atlantico, Colombia, she began her career at a young age, making her recording debut with Sony Music Colombia at 14. Her early albums Magia and Peligro struggled commercially, but she broke through with Pies Descalzos and Dónde Están los Ladrones?. Her fifth album, Laundry Service, sold over 15 million copies worldwide, becoming the best-selling album of all time by a female Latin artist. She is also an actress, influencer, TikTok star, and YouTuber.
Her success continued with Spanish-language albums like Fijación Oral, Vol. 1, Sale el Sol, El Dorado, and Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, all topping Billboard's Top Latin Albums chart, making her the first woman with number-one albums across four different decades. Her English-language albums also received platinum certifications. She has scored numerous number-one singles worldwide, including "Hips Don't Lie" and "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)". With over 125 million records sold, she is one of the best-selling musicians ever. Billboard named her Top Female Latin Artist of the Decade twice. She also served as a coach on The Voice, voiced a character in Zootopia, and judged Dancing with Myself. Beyond music, she founded the Barefoot Foundation for philanthropy and received the Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year in 2011. She was also appointed to the President's Advisory Commission and named Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by France in 2012. Her relationship with Spanish footballer Gerard Piqué began in 2011, and they separated in 2022.
