Shakira SLAYS At The 2011 Latin Grammy Awards!


STUNNING!

Not that we would expect otherwise, but still!

Check out Shakira's both absolutely FIERCE and BEAUTIFUL performances of her hits, Antes de la seis and Loca, during last night's 2011 Latin Grammy Awards, at which she won for "Best Feminine Pop Vocal Album," as well as honored for her philanthropic contributions to global education reform (above)!

She said during her acceptance speech:

"One of my favorite passages in the bible is Corinthians 3: 13. Without love nothing is good for me and without love I am nothing. To my loved ones… my family and my brother Tony thank you for your friendship.”

Congratulations, gurl! You should be very proud of all of your accomplishments!

And keep on shaking it!

Hold Up! Is Shakira Replacing J.Lo On American Idol?

idol-shakeup-jlo-shakira.jpg

Nah! Just another one of those fun loving rumors peeps like to get started!

The latest gossip to come out of Idol territory is that Jennifer Lopez isn't interested in returning to the show for a second season and that producers are looking for someone equally as hot and talented to replace her. While we have no idea if that is true, we can report from a well placed source that the rumor Shakira is in the running for J.Lo's spot is definitely FALSE.

In their words, the story is "not true at all."

And now, we're mildly disappointed! Though we kind of hope Jennifer sticks with it another year, Shakira, Shakira would be a FINE substitute! We know we'd tune in every week just to hear her golden Latina voice throw some truth on some singing hopefuls. That'd be amazing!!!

But if not Shakira, then who? Who will replace Jen if she packs up and books it out of Idol land???
