GREAT
we all know that SHAKIRA is much more than an excellent performer... so God Bless YOu... SHAKI!!! for helping others.... you inspire us... we gotta do the same... :)
Dear Shakira, I hope you had a wonderful day. Your amazing and most beautiful ballad 'Antes de las seis' inspired my first novel - a beautiful love story. It features your music and my dream is to share it with you and if the stars align I hope to get your blessing to publish. The story seemed to come to me as gift from the heart - your beautiful song the driver. Best wishes, hopefully when the book is complete (soon) I can figure out how to make this book a reality. Have a beautiful day, Kim
shakira is awsome!!!!!
