Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, Biography -
born February 2, 1977 in Barranquilla, Colombia; is a Latin pop and rock and roll singer and songwriter.
Shakira was born to a mother of Spanish and Italian descent & an American-born father of Lebanese heritage. Shakira is also fluent in many languages including English, Spanish, Arabic, Italian, Portuguese and French. She is of Roman Catholic faith.
Shakria began writing and composing music at the age of nine. One of the first songs she had written was "Tus Gafas Oscuras", and its lyrical message revolved around her father and his grief over a son who had passed away due to a car accident. At the age of ten, Shakiira applied for her school choir, but she was rejected because her voice had been noted as "too strong." Friends teased her by saying she sounded like a goat. Shakira was deeply hurt and considered giving up on singing, but instead of that she started looking for other singing opportunities. Shakira decided to compete in a weekly television singing competition for children, Vivan Los Niños. Shakira won the contest.
