Talk:Shakira

{{edit semi-protected|Shakira|answered=yes}}

Hope all is well. The change I’m suggesting is Shakira’s nationality. She is Colombian and Lebanese. Her father was a Lebanese man. Her last name is Mebarak, a Lebanese last name. Shakira is proud of her Lebanese roots as we saw when she performed at Super Bowl. In 2003, Shakira said she was proud of her Lebanese roots during interview with American Press. That’s all .

:File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: We already mention her Lebanese ancestry in the Early Life section. Per MOS:NATIONALITY we generally do not include ethnicity in the first sentence if it differs from the nation they were notable in. Cannolis (talk) 07:27, 25 December 2023 (UTC)

Suggest that a direct link to Shakira (album) be put back into the hatnote - it was removed when the hatnote looked like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shakira&oldid=1136920341 this], which was indeed excessive. Such a link is common practice for musicians with self-titled albums.

:{{done}} I think it's important to add this distinction. Coulomb1 (talk) 19:14, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Please change "Her success was further solidified with the Spanish-language albums Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 (2005), Sale el Sol (2010), El Dorado (2017), and Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran (2024), all of which topped the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart, making her the first woman with number-one albums across four different decades." to "Her success was further solidified with the Spanish-language albums Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 (2005), Sale el Sol (2010), El Dorado (2017), and Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran (2024), all of which topped the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart, making her the first woman with number-one albums across three different decades." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:27B0:5302:BA60:CC4F:5136:1D72:72F2 (talk) 09:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

There should be added information regarding her education. She graduated college a few years ago. 109.166.138.140 (talk) 16:43, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

In the section “Crossover” Issues in the fourth paragraph first sentence change “her” to “hair” and add “for” between was and her. The new sentence will say: Shakira insisted that her only motivation for blonding her hair was for her own vanity. Cam9926 (talk) 08:00, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

:{{done}} I don't think the "for" is necessary, but I fixed the other, thanks. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 17:45, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
