Creating Laundry Service was a great challenge for Shakira. For the first time in her musical career, she came out with a crossover album, recording songs in both English and Spanish. Clearly, she overcame this challenge as the album became top 3 in the United States and the United Kingdom and more than 20 million copies were sold worldwide. Shakira received four MTV Latin America Awards (Best Female Artist, Best Pop Artist, Video of the Year (for Suerte"e;), and Artist of the Year) for Laundry Service. She also received the Latin Grammy for Best Music Video for the single Suerte.
