SHAKIRAI feel like I’m on an anthropological mission.
SHAKIRAI’m barefoot whenever I can be.
SHAKIRAMy man, Gerard, prefers meat over bone. That takes the pressure off. I already have a lot to worry about.
SHAKIRAI think, that if you can prove the existence of God, it can only be proven through love.
SHAKIRAI am a person who has many dreams. But as soon as I accomplish one, I move on to the next. That’s my fatal, absurd nature. Human beings are slaves to our dreams, and I am, too. Now I think I just want to share my musical proposal in its entire form.
SHAKIRAMy therapist taught me why I behave in certain ways and not to feel so pressured.
SHAKIRAPeople get jaded in every profession, but for some reason,
SHAKIRAI feel as passionate as when I was 13 years old and just released my first album. I feel the same amount of adrenaline in my blood, and the same amount of curiosity as well. Curiosity about why I’m different.
SHAKIRASongwriting is such an intricate part of me as an artist and as a person; I couldn’t just let someone else do it.
SHAKIRAMy songs are the reflection of how I think and how I feel in that moment. But I’m conscious of the fact that artists have a responsibility before the masses and they have to take care with their words.
SHAKIRAMy body feels like it is asking to reproduce.
SHAKIRAI do take advantage of, you know, feeling sensual and feeling sexy.
SHAKIRAAt the age of eight, I discovered that I could write songs.
SHAKIRAI didn’t expect babies to need so many diapers. Nobody told me they needed to be changed so often.
SHAKIRAI wanna stay an eternal girlfriend. I want to have my boyfriend’s children, but I don’t think we need a piece of paper to regulate the game, and we don’t have to go through the whole stress of a wedding and suffering to throw a good party.
