My dear you have no idea of all the children she has given education to and saved from a life on the streets, with the money she earns by shaking her ass and singing... Plus the international fame she got is something not available to most of the people in Colombia...there you have to work double hard to achieve your goals. I'm not a fan of Shakira but many people there are very grateful! And I admire that :)
@mrvillian88 Hey um, she' lebanese not "arab" Lebanon and Arab countries are different. Orginally Lebanon didn't speak arabic. They spoke Phanitian. & why does it matter? She's half and half. So STFU.
`Gass i dont know what a f u talking about is Lebanese now another race???haha i hear this first time so u have your one language????Plsssssssssss i am turkish -russian married to arabic ,u all arabs or deny or get coky about ur nationality Like my husband says Arab Girls most beauty girls in a world but all i see is big nose and horse jaw line only eyes and hair is good which make them LITTLE BIT ATTRACTIVE and all selebraties gone thru surgeries and true only mix arabs are hot
@okean27 BIG NOSE AND HORSE JAW LINE? NOW YOUR JUST SAYING THAT BECAUSE YOU SAW 1. AND YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO FREAKING SPELL ANYTHING. & WHO EVER SAID LEBANESE IS ANOTHER RACE? THEY'RE NOT ORGINALLY ARABIC! THEY'RE PHINICIAN. SO STFU STUPID ASS IGNORANT BITCH. MIX ARABIC PEOPLE. YOUR REALLY IN ASSHOLE. & COOL STORY YOUR TURKISH RUSSIAN. DOES ANYONE GIVE A FUCK? NOPE SO GTFO. K BYE!
Hold up Shakira is half middleeastern whether you like that or not. And arab women are beautiful that belly dancing she does is not columbian its middleeastern/indian. And yeah middleeastern people have really bad attitudes and put their women down but her dad is of that nationality so you're insulting her.
i can say who is shakira: she is he most beautiful talented and biggest latin american singer she is colombian and she's a very humanitarian person too!! she is unique i love her.
@oslotur That is where YOUR wrong, arab is like saudi arabia, iraq iran, lebanon has their own kind or arabic dilect, so their they're own country. Don't even try to argue, my family is from Lebanon
@spacemuffins123 HAHAH. Guess what? Lebanese = Arabic! =) Dont be naive. and get yur facts right, cuz iran is NOT an arabic country. Yes, the culture is different, but so is the different in ANY arab country.. Don't try to deny your identity. Thats lame. -.-
@TwiStedAngelNL Deny my identity? If someone asks me what I am? I don't say arabic. I say Lebanese. Lebanon spoke Phinician(however you spell it) before arabic. & Cool story about Iran. & YOU stop being naive.
@spacemuffins123 I dont care about your history. nobody does. Wether you like it or not, Lebanon is and always Will be a part of the Arab World. People, the media, new, politicians, and even Lebanese government themselves refer to Lebanon as an Arabic nation. Thats because it is and always will be an arab nation. So you can talk all the jibberish you want, but it will never change the facts ;) Its like saying, 'Yeah, i wear a police agent-outfit, but that doesnt make me a police officer!' LMAO!
@spacemuffins123 Yes I AM arabic you dumb F*CK!!! Even if i wasn't, this is what we call COMMON SENSE. God gave you brains to think. So use them! And judging from your knowledge and lack of sensibility, I'd say YOU are the ignorant one. This discussion is over, dont bother to reply back cause i won't. Idiots like you are a waste of time and space.
Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll (born: February 2, 1977)[2] known simply as Shakira, (Arabic: شاكيرا) ([ʃəˈkiːrə] in English, [ʃaˈkirə] in Portuguese, [tʃa'kira] or [ʃa'kira] in Spanish [3]) is a COLOMBIAN singer-songwriter, musician, record producer, dancer and philanthropist who emerged as a musical prodigy in the music scene of Latin America in the mid-1990s. Born and raised in Barranquilla, COLOMBIA. I think this speaks for itself.
Her name might be arabic, but dont kid yourself, she doesnt knw how to speak arabic, she may include some arabic words in her songs, but she doesnt knw knw how to speak fluently. She was born in colombia, her mom is colombian, she became famous in colombia. No one knew anout her in her early days in lebanon, you guys only paid attention to her when she was famous..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
she's not arab, her father is of lebanese descent, but he's colombian, and her mother is colombian, and she is colombian, but she often honors the lebanese blood of her father in her music and vids...
Shakira was born on February 2, 1977 in Barranquilla, Colombia. She is the only child of Nidya del Carmen Ripoll Torrado, a Colombian of Italian and Spanish ancestry, and William Mebarak Chadid who is of Lebanese descent.[1] She has 8 older half siblings from her father's previous marriage, but she often omits the "half" in interviews.
excuse me , she is not arab , she is originally lebanese and as a lebanese i am not priud of her , we have more talented and much more beauiful girls than her in lebanon .
viplimama , bubble head , do you really know Shakira ? just look in google you will know if she is lebanese or not , her dad is from Zahle in Lebanon , she came to visit lebanon once and she talks all the time about lebanon ... anyway , if she is lebanese that does not make me proud , i'm proud of my own achivment not hers. and in lebanon , we have beauty that does not exist in the whole world ... we have real ladies ...
i am sorry too for my reaction , but i feel sorry for my country , arabs hate us , and in the same time when they travel they pretend they're lebanese, to avoid embarrassment... but anyway , i prefer shakira to salma hayek who's lebanese native and hates lebanon to the bones
Oh please you have beauty the rest of the world does not? LMAO! Lebonese chicks are fugly and look like men once they hit middle age...Persian women are prettier and Latinas are a thousand times hotter than either one of them! Just compare a girl from Colombia or Brazil to a women from Lebanon lol...there is no comparison. And Shakira a also part Italian and Spanish and it's obvious that's where she gets her looks from, too bad she's half arab other wise she might be hotter!
thekingofmoney2000 i have never said that we are the prettiest in the world , that's nonsense . but in world ranking till 2009 lebanon 's ranking in BIG5 beauty GS is 49th (1176.6 points) egypt is 89th
tunisia 112 th etc...
lebanon 's ranking in BIG3 for men is 1st in the world in Mister INTERNATIONAL TILL 2009
and shakira's beauty is very popular in lebanon with elise gebrael who was a runner up in MISS lebanon
thekingofmoney2000 , for your informations,adriana tarud & valerie tarud 2 colombian lebanese who were MISS COLOMBIA 2005 & 2006 are shakira's cousins
watch on youtube a sample (MISS INTERNATIONAL 2008 TOP 12 SPEECHES PART 2) or v=QInfDGHHZTQ JESSICA KAHWATY represented lebanon who speaks 5 languages + arabic , watch v=lciDF5e9jiQ anabella hilal in miss world 2006 finals and many ore 90% of lebanese have european passports and have mixed with westerners and tht
@thekingofmoney2000 Racist bitch. Thats what you are. And all races have some beautiful girls. You have a hard head for saying what you said. ARAB? It's called lebanese so GTFO
She was better off being a TV show presenter . Nowadays, she's just another arab dumb and talentless singer. i swear i used to have so much respect and admiration for her but now that all went down the drain
ramzi45 fuck you asshole retarded arab , Razan is one of the most important speakers in europe and she is originally lebanese , and speaks 5 languages . by the way as a lebanese i'm fed up with arabs whenever you see a lebanese girl you treat her like a whore ... jealous stupid retarded who used to live in jungle
y is it with lebanese that they think the whole world is jealous from them, is it bcuz u need ppl to be jealous from u so that u can feel better about ur self,
atleast arab countries are better that
ur "phonician" country,3.5 m ppl inside Leb. while 10m are outside of Leb.u ppl didn't have a president for how many MONTHS, ur country is controlled by millitias, (hizzbullah, fatah al islam),
i am not the only one who thinks razan is a slut, cuz my comments got thumbs up >:D
oh yeah , most watched videos on youtube are for lebanese singers and girls and the viewers are 90 % arabs , if they see a beautiflu girl she should be a whore or she had plastic surgery or she is so ugly .... always negative , so what do you call this ? .... we don't care about arabs if they like us or not , just leave us in peace .. as for problems in my country , i know about them , and i'm sad for that but because they don't belong to us , one is palestinian and the other is iranian ..
you are arab = and you are jealous , afterall , lebannese are phenicians , yes i am proud , we invited the alphabet we invited the boats , and actually we have the richest diaspora in the wolrd , we have celebrities and politicians in evrywhere in the world ... i have 1000s names in alll fields .... tell what about your country dirty arab ... who keeps on watching youtube to critisize brilliant people ... give me one celebrity from your native coutry
