Shakira Gets Fined for Shaking Her Hips in Barcelona's Famed Fountain

Shakira's hips might not lie, but it turns out they're still pretty offensive, at least to the authorities in Barcelona.

The Colombian pop star had a great time dancing with fans in Barcelona's famous Pla de Palau fountain last week during a break from filming the video for her next single, Loca.

Shakira's Christmas Means Giving

Shakira comforted victims of Cyclone Sidr in Bangladesh this week. As a UNICEF ambassador, the Colombian-Lebanese singer is helping to raise the money to rebuild the estimated 3,000 schools damaged by the worst cyclone season in history. "I'm sorry for what happened to you, but things will get better again," she told the families and children at one stop on her three-day tour.

Shakira just got nominated for a Golden Globe for a song she wrote for the movie version of "Love in the Time of Cholera," proving that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association didn't see the trailer for the movie and its giggle-inducing title card. We like Shakira's body of work, there's just something inherently ridiculous about her as a soundtrack artist--or so we used to think.
