Cultural Comparable.

What do Jennifer Lopez getting the spotlight for her big booty,
Angelina Jolie getting the spotlight for her full lips, and
Shakira getting the spotlight for her so called "Sexy Moves," all have in common?

These are all things typical and common to the Hamitic Black women around the world who have possessed these gifts abundantly for thousands of years.

Shakira, labeled as the sexiest dancer for her so called "signature moves," whereby this dance form has been a typical traditional authentic art by Hamitic African women, Shemetic Arabic women, and the women of the mixed populations within the south pacific for thousands of years until today long before Shakira.

African women, in particular, have been dancing our traditional dances of the art of the hips and waist for the longest duration of time for thousands of years since Egypt and the early Cushite empires—long before Shakira—and are still much better at it.

Yet, for the Eurocentric western world, dominantly based off a Eurocentric culture which has always been a culture not accustomed to sensuous hip isolations, seem to get excited over this first chance to have a token white girl who can move her waist, and they have their media highlight as if her dance style is unique to her.

Despite the fact that Shakira's so called "signature moves" have been being done in Africa traditionally as a part of the Hamitic culture for milleniums all the way up until the present—and African women are much better at it being it's indigenous to us—the western run media waits until they are fortunate to stumble across a token white girl to represent sexiness that has been being practiced other places in the world long before Shakira.

So Shakira's moves authentic? Nope. African women have been doing this stuff...

  • its not whether a dancer has talent or is a good dancer, its whether her moves can make your heart flutter with every undulation, and shakira does it for me everytime, maybe others feel their body bouncing with beyonce, but for me---shakira, shakira shakira--and guys, no fightin about this! As to her color and religion, let me just add that a stiff c--- doesnt bother about caste, creed or color

  • To have a signature move or signature asset does not nessecarily mean you are the first to do it. To have a signature move or asset means that you are know for that. Shakira's signature move is part of a belly dance routine, thousands of belly dancers have probably done the same moves. Shakira is talented no doubt that their are others just as talented but Shakira cashed in with her talents and others have not. I mean no disrespect but that is the way I see this.

  • @Jewlombianifyurmama LOL! And I thought you were done. Why are you still posting?

    LOL! That's the kind of stuff I'm talking about.

    Have fun at Yale.

    What you're getting ready to so called "learn" at Yale is going to be useless & worthless in the upcoming years. You don't know how the system works, nor where it's headed. LOL!

    Poor child.

    Take care.

  • @Jewlombianifyurmama Hon, going to Yale doesn't mean your "intelligent," it just means your going to get brainwashed by people who have formulated a curriculum for you (That isn't even necessarily true) just so can help further their industries.

    That doesn't make you "intelligent" just a person to use, hon.

    Anybody can memorize curriculum. Nothing special.

    There are three of different kinds of "intelligence." (which obviously you don't know.)

    I surpassed you a LONG time Ago, hon.

  • @juniorbnthg Dude, shut up, it's over with already. All you've don is waste space on my video rambling and spewing out ignorance that's all been debunked.

  • @juniorbnthg 71,681 views with 118 likes is not evidence that she's scaring hippos and lions, hon. LOL!

    And notice all the people in the video watching her are not black.

    The only images that'll be scaring hippos, lions—& HUMANS too—are these corpse-looking images of Shakira.

    PROVIDED & DEBUNKED

    " ... yeah good enough for scaring lions ..."

    DEBUNKED

    How much more do you want to keep making a complete fool of yourself, hon?

  • @juniorbnthg Well, if they were scaring hippos—they wouldn't all be super models.

    See how dumb you are? LOL!

    You're like some sort of professional Idiot.

    Now your just rambling like an idiot TRYING to use insults that aren't working cuz all people have to do is click the videos I posted to in response to your ignorant comments to see the hardcore evidence.

    The only images that are going to be scaring hippos are these ghost, vampire images of Shakira with yellow teeth ...

  • @juniorbnthg Oh, by the way, even if she were bald—see, when we go bald, we still look good.Take all the makeup off, weave out, and cut all your hair, get rid of all the beauty crutches—guess what? WE STILL LOOK GOOD.

    Let Shakira try to take all her weave out, take off all her makeup and go bald—She'd just look like a CANCER PATIENT. LOL!
