Her 1998 album, Donde Estan los Ladrones?, was also a critical success. Since then, she has gained millions of fans worldwide. In 2001, she broke through into the English-speaking world with the release of Laundry Service, which sold over thirteen million copies worldwide. Four years later, Shakira released two album projects called Fijacion Oral Vol. 1 and Oral Fixation Vol. 2. Both reinforced her success, particularly with the most successful song in the twenty-first century to date, “Hips Don’t Lie.” In 2009, Shakira released She Wolf. She has won two Grammy Awards and seven Latin Grammy Awards. She is also the highest-selling Colombian artist of all time and the second most successful female Latin singer, having sold over 50 million albums worldwide. She is the only artist from South America to reach the number one spot on the US Billboard Hot 100, Canadian Hot 100, the Australian ARIA chart, and the UK Singles Chart. Shakira has reached new heights headlining Super Bowl LIV with Jennifer Lopez. Don’t miss her as she continues to tour the world.
