Shakira is going to be teaming up with Puig in launching her very own cosmetics line.

“I’m very excited to be able to express myself through another creative medium. My feeling is that personal care and beauty should be effortless and accessible for everyone.”

No doubt this will be another successful venture. Looks like Forbes’s highest-grossing Latina musician is going to be at it again this year. Latinas are doing it for themselves, thank you very much.

Grammy’s Latino Style: Shakira + Winners List

In Alejandro Sanz, Black:Guayaba, Calle 13, El Chapo, Los Tigres Del Norte, Paquito D'Rivera Quintet, Pepe Aguilar, Shakira on February 11, 2008 at 4:19 pm

Why is Shakira looking like a mess here? Here she is arriving at the Grammys in a Caroline Herrera gown. She must have thought she was going on a makeover show and was trying to look as shabby as possible as to make the makeover all the more spectactular.

She doesn’t look like a glamina at all. Even if she wasn’t going to do anything with the hair, she could’ve at least worked the outfit . Tsk, tsk. Want to read the list of the winners ( like Best Tejano album. Little Joe and La Familia) we actually care about and see more pics?

Shakira Strips Off Her Clothes for a Good Cause

In Shakira on February 8, 2008 at 10:00 am

Not literally now. Guys, don’t you wish. Shakira is auctioning off all her get ups from her Oral Fixation tour via Ebay Giving Works, and is doing it all in the name of charity, her Bare Foot Foundation to be more exact.

A sample of the  40 outfits that will be auctioned off:

 a shiny lavender skirt with turquoise and coral beading

 a bright red dress with a plunging neckline and huge, winglike sleeves

 a blue tank top emblazoned with the slogan “For Those Who Love to Rock”

The proceeds will benefit children in Northern Columbia. Oh, such a generous heart.  Wish Yeni would give away some of her pre-pregnancy clothes, with me as sole beneficiary.

AskMen.com did their annual 99 Sexiest Women countdown and not suprisingly, a lot of Latinas made the list. Those who made the list? I’ve filtered everyone else, so here’s the Latino-friendly list:

#79 Ana De La Reguera. Not a bad choice. According to the website, the sultry Mexican actress earned a 91% on her sexiness report card. 

The site drooled: “engaging brown eyes, perfect complexion, cascading locks, and unforgettable figure… ole”

But how did #78 Nadine Velazquez get a 93% from readers against Ana’s 84%. Go fig. Click on to read the see the other ladies who topped the countdown.

A Golden Globe for Javier Bardem

In America Ferrera, Javier Bardem, Shakira on January 14, 2008 at 2:33 pm

Javier Bardem won a Golden Globe as Best Supporting Actor for his role as Anton the psychopath in the film  No Country for Old Men. Javier released a statement:

“It is a great honor to have been recognized with this award in a time when there are so many outstanding performances in this category.” 


Due to the writer’s strike, the winners were announced via a live press conference. I had to resort to mentally picturing the fashions for the night. So, I will tell you what everyone wore. Best Actress in a Comedy or musical nominee America Ferrera wore a green toga-like Elie Tahari gown with Shemera eyelashes and a sweeping hairdo. Shakira, best song nominee? A fitting gown that showed off her belly dance-flattened abs.

Shakira’s Secret Admirers

In Shakira on January 11, 2008 at 9:03 am

Former James Bond Roger Moore finds Shakira a bit appealing.  He’s had a chance to work with her one-on one during her stint as a UNICEF ambassador.

And it’s not just her hip work that the 80-year old finds impressive. “I know Shakira and her great work. She’s a very talented lady,” the knighted actor told the British media.

Shakira inspires, um, admiration in the other sex too.  Nora Jones has got a love jones for La Columbiana:  “She’s hot. I like that she’s this pop star, but she’s also kind of unique and weird. I always sing Shakira when I do karaoke with my friends.”

Drawing drool lust from an 80-something and another female. Guess Shakira is that kind of chic.
