UPDATE: Shakira has asked us to post this message for her:
Thanks for all the well wishes and so much love. You’ve made me feel as though you were all with me today. All my love, Shaki

Today is Shakira's birthday and here at Shakira.com we've just been checking out some of the amazing videos which Shakira fans around the world have been making to celebrate. You can watch three of our favourites on the player above (the first one features some faces you might recognise!).

A big thanks to all of you who've been involved with these projects - Shakira is very lucky to have fans like you guys. If you'd like to leave Shakira your own birthday message, please feel free to add it to the comments below.

The destruction and loss of life in Haiti causes us all to take stock in what is really important. This small country has endured so much - more than its fair share of tragedy. I can't imagine the devastation that has struck an already weakened infrastructure. Critical services needed for recovery, such as schools and hospitals, have been destroyed.

The people of Haiti need our help immediately. Money will be needed to provide urgent emergency relief and I urge everyone who can afford to help to either donate to UNICEF’s emergency relief fund at www.unicef.org or text the word YELE to 501501 on your U.S. cell phone (this will charge your phone $5 - it will go to Wyclef Jean's foundation which is playing a major role in the relief effort. For more information, see www.yele.org).

We must all act. As a global community, we must be part of the recovery of Haiti and its people.

Thank you.

Shakira
