Shakira Losing Her Touch?!

The terrible demo, lame second single AND the lipsynching - we're not surprised!
After her single She Wolf failed to reach the Top 10 on the U.S. singles chart, Shakira's new album has been pushed back a month - to November - while her label tries to garner interest with a different single.
There may be a She Wolf in your closet, but is there a hit?!
Sad. We love us some Shaki but the English CD seems like a stinker! Hopefully the Spanish-language album she's releasing next year will be better!
Update: Sources tell us that, "The album is being moved back a few weeks in order for her to finish up some amazing new tracks shes been putting the finishing touches on."
The label and Shakira are aware that songs have leaked "So she wanted to add these amazing ones shes been working on. They are HOT!"
Thank God!

she's all hips and no voice…always been that way
I prefer her Spanish music much better anyway. I knew Shakira before she did her crossover. I'm sure the Spanish album will be much better.
Oh my zhitfukzhit
zhe
iz not lozin
anything…
zhe iz an
angel from heaven♥♥]]
Only been two singles jeez and theyre not bad ones.
Enough with all the f'ing pop up ads on here Perez…shit
Shakira's english is HORRIBLE!! Her english albums are insanely bad and the fact that she's pushed away so far from her roots leaves her spanish-album fans alienated. Her last spanish album was wonderful but I don't know why she even bothers with the terrible english versions. Come on, Shakira…Stop with the peroxide and the blue contacts and be who you were before.
She has and will always be a novelty act in the US, she was part of that Latin wave along with Ricky Martin and the novelty has worn off sorry Shakira, your moves, nasal vocals and good looks can only take you so far. wah wah wah.
after watching 'she wolf' music video, i wanna fuck shakira repeatedly! she's god damn HAWT!!
Sucks, I always got good vibes from her. I was listening to "Oral Faccion" hmmm, 2 yrs ago? She may not have the BEST voice but it's unique, I dig it, I liked the album.
I'm not a huge fan, but I'll listen to her singles when they come out and yeah "shewolf", wtf was she thinking?
But, seems like fame hasn't gone to her head which I respect. Oh and thanks for the dance moves, girl! Good luck mamacita, get back to those Columbian roots and dig deep for some better songs, best wishes

shut up perez!
Re: Dily – Re: Dily – So do I, I think her the music in Spanish is just beautiful, Oral Faccion was great.
U can't be on top forever still love her though
NO offense, her english albums have never been her best. Her spanish albums are amazing…should it really come as a surprise to anyone? I still think they should release it though…they should just be aware that the money maker will be the spanish album.
Shakira never had a "touch" to most of us. My 58 year old step father disagrees but seriously…
WHAT! NOOOOOOO I was really looking forward to the Album! GRRRRRR "I Love Did It Again"
Shakira, say hello to my little friend.
Re: SheriMoonFireFly – Hellz yeah, couldn't have said it better myself!
Re: SheriMoonFireFly – morning hot stuff
Re: Victoria_Antoinette –
What the fuck is "Oral Faccion" LOL Fijacion Oral Vol 1 was an amazing album. Oral Fixation Vol. 2 was good but certainly no where as brilliant as Vol. 1.
I am actually thrilled to see her do more "dance" although I was not aware this was only going to be in the english version. I though the spanish album was going to be in the same vein (and no doubt much much better).
Her voice is unique and special and I am not sure why she's lip synching since in the past she's always insisted on live singing only.
For all the haters here saying she never sings live…you can suck it cause obviously you've never followed her career.
I think I'm probably the only person on the planet who likes her new song.
Re: peaceloveandsex –
She can always be on top of me.
Perez, this is bullshit. That "Border" demo was NOT FOR SHAKIRA'S ALBUM and you know it!
Her only problem is that she let the song sit for weeks with ZERO promotion. No wonder it didn't hit.
Love her, but She-Wolf was the worst single of the year!
Shakira is a long act now: From "Whenever, Wherever" back in 2001 to now, she keeps comming with music each time with different sound !!!
Perez!!! stop being so dramatic and negative…her single is currently 11 (wow, one away from the top 10!!!! don't you have any positive to say???
just wikipediaed it and the song missed the american top ten by one place, i doubt shes crying herself to sleep over it. plus it has reached the top ten in over 10 countries
WHO CARES ABOUT THE AUTO-TUNED MUSIC… I'D BANG HER!!!
i dont like this new version of shak, in spanish is way better, she is a natural hottie but now she istrying so hard and the result is a skanky singer…….with a terrible song……..i hope the spanish album be better.
I dont believe this! I love both singles! Are u kidding me?
shes wolf is at #4 around the world!i seriouskly dont get usa!!what kind of music u like??hanna montan?”are u serious.??europe is so much modern than usa-hip hop is so fucking ovarreted.electronic music is the next shit, madonna us at #1 in europe.she is doing really great
Perez ur such a hypocrite…demos are just wut they are DEMOS dumbass…she wolf is not the shakira alot of ppl are used but she's an artist and she is coexisting with other sounds! you say u liked her first single but didn't love great we respect your opinions about songs since you're so much on GAGA's A** every other artist music is LAME to you…let artist be PEREz thanks for all the gossip but come on man don't be a hypocrite.
its so cool:new madonna track its amazing.alreadyu #3 in europe
how can you possibly make an honest opinion about an album that HASN'T BEEN RELEASED? …better yet, that YOU HAVEN'T LISTENED TO???
Well…as soon as she started in the US market she colored her hair blonde. You could tell that she was already starting to loose her native "thing". I know her waay before the english albums and I used to love her. Now, i think she is just a generic blonde making music.
Re: Mancunian – Yeah I know but for a first single that is pretty bad…if it was a 2nd or 3rd single it would be awesome…but for a first single you really need to hit like the top 10 in every territory…
Re: Madonna barcelona – definitely agree with you, especially when ppl are so infatuated and up other artist's ass; the rest of the music business is LAME to them such hypocrites
Re: Madonna barcelona – Freddy, who told it was ok to poke your ulgy head out of Vadge's chili ring at open your fuckin' piehole? Now git the fuck back in there with the rest of the 'riody turds and STFU!
Lame second single? That's funny. If you read YOUR OWN COMMENT ON THAT POST you will see that you said you liked it. Didn't love it, but liked it. You are a stupid jerk.
The problem with Shakira is that she completely lost her latin flavor. Now she's just another blonde bimbo who dresses and dances like a slut.
Re: Victoria_Antoinette –
woooohooooooooooooooooooooooRe: JigSaw –
mornin jiggzbaby♥]]
Re: Sportyraven – I wrote the wrong name lmao "Oral Faccion" is by a singer named arikahS lmao but Fijacion Oral Vol 1 was just fabulous, gave all emotions, soothed me, rocked me out, made me dance-fvcking fantastic! Oral Fixation Vol. 2 was…eh, I agree. Shakira can move that body, I can't wait to see what she'll do next. That girl taught me some good stuff lol. I used the word unique when describing her voice, too, some people like the first comment may think it's not good but that's BULL, that voice is delicious. I can't understand the sudden lip-synching, that's never been her style, maybe sore throat? Nerves? I hope so b/c I love her live singing. And I'm with you, haters can suck it! xxx
You know Perez, it's interesting. While I don't agree with lip syncing, she does it once and you bash her! Yet britney spears lip syncs an entire tour (AND madonna does as well) and they're both praised? What the f*ck do you know about music? You have the musical taste of a 13 yr old. Go listen to some more disney stars
Re: Victoria_Antoinette – lmao sorry ’bout that, put too much klonopin in my coffee, I meant "Fijacion Oral Vol 1", although the klonopin is hindering my typing skills, I sure am relaxedddd. best wishes girl!
No surprise here. She was a one hit wonder.
Shakira!!!! eres lo maximo!!!
Re: hair-on-me –
all hips and no voice? how long have you even followed her career? obviously not that long. check out her mtv unplugged see if you still think she has no voice. the thing is, people here say she can't sing because they compare her to beyonce and such. shakira's voice is more fitted for rock and pop. i would like to see beyonce's voice transfer to a rock song, probably wouldn't. and the whole blonder hair saying she is trying to be white. we are in 2009 people, why continue withe the stereotyping. there are pleny Hispanic women with blonde hair. Shakira had her hair red a long time ago…was she trying to be Irish then? You guys are a joke. So I agree, she may not have the greatest voice out there, but so do many of the greats. Madonna & Britney to name a few. Hell Britney has made a career out of lipsynching, but do you see people make a big deal about it. No, instead she gets more famous. And Perez you are an idiot and will always be an idiot. Her song is number 11 right now, barely missing out of the top 10. You're just so far up Lady Gaga's ass that you think everything that isn't Gaga sucks.
I have never liked her. Her voice reminds me of a Disney character.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, HER TWO NEW SINGLES SUCK, I REALLY HATE HER VOICE ON SHE DOG. SHITKIRA REALLY NEEDS TO LEARN HOW TO DANCE CAUSE THE WAY SHE MOVES LOOKS VULGAR OR IS SHE FUCKING DANCING?
I AGREE WITH YOU.
she sounds like a goat!!
love her spanish albums better! idk why but i just do!
Poor dear, she used to have it all when it came to spanish pop.
Re: hair-on-me – WTF? She's definitely got a voice.
Re: Madonna barcelona – WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT MADONNA!? SHE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SHAKIRA! AND I #3 ISN'T #1 WHICH MEANS SHE SUCKS!
Re: NativeNYer –
um, do u know the meaning of a one hit wonder. obviously not. a one hit wonder has one hit, that's it. shakira has had 4 top ten hits in america. and regardless of what people think, she wolf is a hit. it's at number eleven. why do you think they have top 40 radio, because anything that makes it into top 40 territory is a hit. it's only when you make it to top ten that it's a really huge hit.
maybe she could get a butt lift
I LOVE SHAKIRA! She's one of my all time favorites. Unique voice, but I prefer the Spanish versions over the English ones. La Tortura & Beautiful Liar were my favorites..
Here's hoping this is the beginning of the end of her "career". It used to be that Shakira could do no wrong, but now that she's pulling out all the stops in her mission to look and act like a Grade-A Whore, people are becoming disgusted. Once upon a time I had nothing against her, until I saw her videos. She's a vulgar piece of trash - just another fucking idiot with the "sex sells" hive mentality.
Btw I love her dress. Cute.
I've just listened her another albums like MTV Unplugged and Laundry Service.. And I can say that I enjoy songs from those two albums much more than her new songs - she wold or another new single etc. So. Regrettably, she's really changed.. Come back to Spanish, not for this "style". Doooh
U SUCK PEREZ!!! NO SURPRISE, ALL U DO IS TALK SHIT, UR FULL OF SHIT!!! SHAKIRA IS SHAKIRA A GODDESS, GORGEOUS, UNIQUE, ORIGINAL, AND SHE HAS A VERY LONG CAREER, FUCK YOU AND FUCK THE HATERS!!!
She should stop singing, I mean howling. She should do porn.
Nobody cares about her anymore.
So pretty
So in need of lip-synching classes
she wold definitely works better in spanish - but still not great. and what's with the dancing? whereas before it was cool and sexy now its funny and awkward. the robot went out in 1982. and the howling? seriously?
she's a got a voice, but she looks so odd in the new vid, enuff with the shakin shakira…..I am not a prude, but she just looked so fuckiin dumb.
Shewolf sounds like all of her other songs. Not very original. And i never really liked her to begin with. My boyfriend loves her…but not for her music.
anyway, i'm buying nelly furtado's new spanish album first.
I never like her English stuff. I'm waiting 4 her Spanish album why can't she just focus on a spanish one and write great songs like in her Fijacion Oral cd?
Wow..the border isn't even on this album, Did it Again is awesome (you said you liked it!), and although the lip synching sucks, the reviews of her new material are better than for her previous english stuff already..stop being so dramatic
but as a shaki big time fan i love her new singles and it doesnt matter to me how well they do on the charts as long as i can listen to her music. I cannot wait another month!!! dont torture us shaki!
im like obsessed with her new single! i love it!
but im excited shes gonna ass new songs!
Shes amazing and i know she can do awesome things!
but u r right! she needs to stop lip-synching!
maybe is not a hit, but she wolf is a really good song, you have to listened a little more and then u will be loving it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and thats is whats happen!!! slow but safe is racing a number trhee in the united world chart
who cares us.
i love the she wolf video!!!
You guys have to remember Shakira could not promote she wolf because she was very ill after shooting the video. I can't wait for this album, and, Did it again was 50% live. Amazing song!!!
She sounds like a car horn when she sings.
"She Wolf" on America's Got Talent was AWFUL.
Agree with the comment that said she is a natural hottie..yeah yeah.. She does seem to be trying to hard a bit this time around and she doesn't have to try at all. I have been fixated by her since i first saw her on Spanish TV, if you haven't seen her MTV Unplugged performance, go watch it. She is most definitely an artist and her music does loose some emotion when transferring to English.
I want the old Shakira not the anglo one
I love her new song actually. The She Wolf one i mean. It's still great
She wolf was one of the stupidest songs Ive heard in my 14 years. AHHHH-WOOOO!
