Couple points of clarrification.

1) She's from Colombia. I think she's only hafl Colombian though. I can't remember what the other half is but for some reason I want to say German.
2) She's already a huge success in the Latin music world. This is her first English record.
3) Give her a break with her English/Lyrics. Yes, her lyrics are popcorn, but then so is the rest of the Nsync, Backstreet, Britney crap. Let's face it, it aint the Eagles. Furthermore, her English is much bether than my Spanish.
4) She is hot.

I know all this crap because my fiance' is also half Colombian and loves the music (especially the Spanish songs).

OHHH!!!! These people are supposed to be able to SING as well?

Comon folks..... we oughtta be able to tell that more and more of the stuff that is shoved down are throats is no more than a big marketing machine.

1 thing is for sure... you can't give a voice to someone, ... stuff it beneath songs written by god knows who, huge sets and productions and dance routines, some makeup, some plastic surgery and voila.

After watching "Me, Myself and Irene", I can't help but think that Jessica Simpson has a butthole on her face.
Who here thinks that that chick from Destiny's Child will have blonder and blonder hair as her records sell better?
Who here thinks that Usher steals ALL of his moves from Micheal Jackson?
Why does Justin Timberlake sing like he wants to be Stevie Wonder?

At least when you watch rap videos, there is a good chance you actually see some real bodyparts...

When it boils all back down to it... sure they might be nice to look at, but chances are, I'm never gonna see them live in person, let alone date or sleep with them... so why worry about it? I have enough cool things to spend my money on instead of soft-porn cd-cover images with some crap-on-a-platter called music.

I like her better as a blonde. I was laughing about her one lyric about her breasts. Thought that was some of the funniest stuff I've ever heard a singer sing. At least it's a catchy tune.

Da Hapa - she's actually from the middle east somewhere. That's why she does all those belly dancer moves.

sorry she is Colombian. Still pics do not do this girl any justice. You have got to watch the video. Her hips are out of control. And, she does this little snake looking thing where her whole body moves in a wave, it's quite hot. I don't think any guy in there right mind would kick this girl out of bed. She IS hot.

So annoying.


---------------------------

Whenever, Wherever
Words by: Shakira and Gloria M. Estefan
Music by: Shakira and Tim Mitchell

Lucky you were born that far away so
We could both make fun of distance
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existence
Baby I would climb the Andes solely
To count the freckles on your body
Never could imagine there were only
Ten million ways to love somebody

Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le
Can't you see
I'm at your feet

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
But that's the deal my dear

Lucky that my lips not only mumble
They spill kisses like a fountain
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
To run for cover when I need it
And these two eyes that for no other
The day you leave will cry a river

Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le
At your feet
I'm at your feet

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
And that's the deal my dear

Le do le le le le, Le do le le le le
Think out loud
Say it again

Le do le le le le
Tell me one more time
That you'll live
Lost in my eyes.

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear

Thereover, hereunder
You've got me head over heals
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel
