| ~Shakira~ |
| WOW! Im finally making this long awaited for page of....Shakira! I am Shakira's number 1 fan!!! I'll admit, I didnt listen to her back in the day when her albums like Piez Descalzos and Donde estan los landroes? were out, but Ive always been kinda familar with her name (being Hispanic, my self and all). So anyways, to be even MORE completley honest...the first time I saw the video "Whenever Wherever" it was about 5:30AM and I was getting ready for skool...I was watching MTV and it came on and seriously I got freaked out in the beggining cuz it starts off with her under water...i was like OMG WTF IS THIS?! ready to change it thinking it was sum freak marilyn manson-sick-people-drowning video...but then the music started and such. My first reaction: this is shakira?? now to get the most honest I can get: I didnt like her. I hated her. I stared at the screen dogging the blonde haired bitch. =P What I was really thinking was "why cant I shake like her?! GGRRR" so technically I envied her! Tee Hee! Now lets juss keep this fine story between you and me! So anways, the more I saw her video, the more I loved her, and the more I went to yahoo-->search-->shakira. I know a lot about her, and have over 20 videos of her on my computer and over 100 pix on my pc. =) Not only are Erica and I out to win her gutiar from the delias contest...I'm out to give u lil facts bout this latin-rock sensation so u can love her juss like me!: |
