Shakira
We have to demand that governments live up to their promises and make education a reality for every child.
Shakira
Barcelona is a great city and Spain is a great country to live in.
Shakira
Women should feel happy with their bodies and not live with the stigma that comes from not looking like models in fashion magazines.
Shakira
I'm more afraid of marriage than death.
Shakira
You're a song written by the hands of God.
Shakira
By giving every child a fair start, we are improving our collective future, including the private sector's ability to find talent in a very competitive global marketplace.
Shakira
I'm happy. I have a man who makes me happy. And a family, which is what I most wanted in life.
Shakira
