Shakira’s Campaign for Education

Shakira speaks as an honorary chairperson for the “Global Campaign For Education” at the Capital in Washington D.C. on Tuesday.

The Colombian singer, 31, shared her experience growing up in the developing world where parents are desperate to provide education for their children.

“Education can really save lives”, said Shakira. She also mentioned that according to her sources, 226 million teenagers can’t attend secondary school due to violence or being forced to work.

Thank you very much. It is such a mellow song, no wonder that I cry every time I heard the song!!

I love Shakira! She’s always standing up for a good cause. Education is important! love her.BTW, is it wrong for a handsome young man to have the relationship with an older woman?? Obviously, it is a world-shaking relationship on the Internet like sugarmommymeet.com. Most blogs and news are focusing and discussing on this kind of relationship. How do you think of such a thing?

I’m very proud of Shakira. I love her music (especially the early work) and am elated to hear how she’s helping back in Colombia. I hope as she ages that the good work she does lasts and she gets back to a more honest musical style - not necessarily a return to her earlier work, just something less commercial and fresh.
Un Fuerte Abrazo Shakira!
