Description

Activity: Singer
Date of birth: 1977-01-02

Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, known worldwide simply as Shakira, was born on February 2, 1977, in Barranquilla, Colombia. She became a world-famous singer, dancer, composer, actress, and philanthropist, captivating millions with her vibrant voice, sensual movements, and original songs.

Her career began at an early age. One day, her father introduced her to the doumbek, an ethnic drum used in Eastern music and to which belly dancing is performed. It was then that little Shakira realized she wanted to perform on stage. At school, she met a girl who taught her oriental dance. Since then, she has performed in Barranquilla at various events. Soon, her popularity as a talented singer and dancer spread far beyond Latin America.

Shakira's unique creative work lies in her ability to harmoniously combine elements of different musical traditions: Colombian rhythms, Arabic motifs, Latin American melodies, and Western pop compositions.

Among her most popular songs, compositions that have become real international hits stand out, such as "Whenever, Wherever," "Hips Don't Lie," "She Wolf," "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" and many others. Each of Shakira's performances amazes with energy, flexible movements, and sincere emotion.

In addition to vocals and choreography, Shakira is known for her humanitarian initiatives and charity work. She is actively involved in charitable projects, supports children's education, and fights against poverty. One example is her involvement in the Pies Descalzos Foundation, which aims to improve the quality of education for disadvantaged children in her native Colombia.
