Another Reason We Love Shakira

Filed under: Inspiration > Shakira

shak4aj5.jpg

During her down time, Shakira has been taking classes at UCLA!

What is she studying? The History of Western Civilization!

There are still artists that use their time to enrich their knowledge and not just go out and party and create drama.

Britney could take a few pointers!

    Britney can't take courses. She couldn't even get into UCLA if she wanted to! Did she even graduate high school or have a GED?

    Perez,
    Britney is an easy target. Have you ever thought about continuing your own education or perhaps finding a gym or a trainer yourself. Seems as though you could reap the benefits as well.

    51

    Perez, you need HELP! You are CLEARLY a Britney fan. Accept it and move on. Stop hiding behind your love by bashing her. Your site is becoming annoying because people can't view it without hearing something stupid about Britney. And speaking of FAT… have you looked in the mirror?

    Shakira effin' rocks. I remember watching her "MTV Diary" episode, where she visited an orphanage/school in Colombia, and she spoke of "incentivizing" education. She used the word "incentivize" for cryin' out loud - how many pop stars do you know that can do that? She came across as very intelligent, kind, and aware of how to use her fame & fortune to help others. That makes her cool in my book.

    In South-American countries people, contrary to common knowledge, study a lot and get at least a College Degree. Her music stinks and everything, but she’s very generous and uses her fame for good causes. Additionally, she seems very charismatic, has a unique voice (not very pleasant sometimes), altogether with a beautiful frame (ass), so she’s the total-package for any record company. Seeing Shakira projected in the public image as such a good girl makes me (sometimes) proud of being a Colombian, though there’s so much more to Colombia than Shakira (or drugs and submission to USA).

    PEREZ!
    PEREZ!
    PEREZ!

    I HOPE YOU KEEP THIS NEW ANGLE! Please consider continuing to report "positive" gossip once in awhile. I respect the fact you featured a lot of fun and talented people on your show, as well. Give some decent celebrities the "kudos" the deserve, and ignore the attention-seeking asses for awhile. Shitney's a "hot mess", as you said, but we get it, man. Unless it's news you just gotta share with us, I'd rather not read her name here for awhile.

  67. cathifa says – reply to this

    I think you have to graduate high school to take classes at UCLA. Shitney doesn't qualify.

    Cool deal, maybe I will run into here there and we can grab a breakfast burrito or something, and to the bashers who come here to say enough of The Brit, and Perez is fat and blah blah blah, remember this everytime you come to his site he makes a little sweet cash off yer ass, so please come again!

  69. Nick says – reply to this

    Umm, I don't think it's necessary to incorporate a Britney put-down into every post you write.

    You want to praise Shakira, that's fine. But why bother to put down someone else, anyone else, at the same time? It just brings the praise of the other person down.

    75

    Does everything you post on your page need to have some connection or relation to Britney…if you want her to dissssssapear…..then STOP TALKING ABOUT HER….and maybe it will happen….secretly I think you are a Britney lover perez…..

    Amazing, a celeb spending time and money to better herself instead of self-destroying! How depressing though, that this is an exception and not a rule

  77. Hypocrite Perez says – reply to this
    77

    And what do YOU do to enrich your mind and contribute something to the world, Perez? Besides drawing childish pictures and promoting yourself.

    It's fine if you want to focus on gossip and glitz; JUST DON'T BE SUCH A HYPOCRITE ABOUT IT!

    Shakira has always been culturally and politically aware. I first saw Shakira in an interview back in 1998 (yes, 9 years ago) when I was visiting the Dominican Republic. I've never forgotten her because of the insightful and thought-provoking topics she was able to discuss in connection with world-wide issues at such a young age. I thought she'd never make a cross-over into American pop culture because she was too smart and either would be deemed boring or her generation would not be able to relate to her. But, my, what a fan base, generations of all levels!!! While I don't love all her songs, I think the context (lyrics) of her work is brilliant. She's a dynamic role model for all women.

  79. Snarky says – reply to this
    79

    Yeah, because if Britney, Lindsay, and Paris spent more time enriching their knowledge, then maybe your site's hits would drop and you would just go away. What did Britney ever do to you, dude, for her to deserve this obsessive vandetta? Diss you? Blow you off? Whatever it is, I LOVE HER FOR IT.

    wow, that's really refreshing to hear. i've always thought of shakira being one of the most positive celebrities out there. go her!

    ps perez you really need to lay off the whole britney thing. it's getting old to go on this site and see that every other post is about her. and it's usually you whining about the same stupid shit. it was interesting maybe a week ago or so.
