It’s no wonder Shakira can shake it like no-one else. The singer claims she’s had the ability to shake her booty since she was a bub, “For me, it was, and is, more of a natural thing. It’s something that was practically given to me at birth, and for which I never had to train myself,” says the Columbian singer. “These movements, they are inside me and I can call them back whenever I need them.”

The sexy ‘She Wolf’ singer says she is still finds it strange that men see her as a sex symbol as she never thought of herself as beautiful. “I must confess that I feel very flattered – because I never have felt particularly sexy.”

Shakira also admitted she had to work extremely hard to be in good shape for her latest video, where she appears practically naked. “I trained really hard for the ‘She Wolf’ video – almost a month. I wanted to look good and didn’t want to shame myself. There was no muscle in my body that did not hurt. I was in pain for days, simply because I’d gone too far.”
