Shakira

Shakira and Alejandro Sanz have always denied the rumors of a romantic relationship between them, and the speculations about Shakira and Alejandro being more than just friends are not new. Now the press is saying that “there are new indications that Alejandro and Shakira have lied about their relationship“.

According to Peru21.com, a source from the Pop Art magazine said that, in fact, there was something going on between them, although the informer made it very clear that Shakira never cheated on her fiance, Antonio de la Rúa.

According to the magazine, the short affair between Shakira and Alejandro Sanz occurred during the rumored (and never confirmed) break up of Shakira and Antonio. At that time, Shakira and Alejandro were working together again, on the making of the video “Te lo agradezco, pero no”.

As you can see in the video, there is a very good “chemistry” between them. Alejandro Sanz said about that:

“There is chemistry, nothing more. If people talk it’s because we managed to transmit that chemistry. Shakira is like a sister to me, a sister who I adore and admire”, he explained.

Like a sister, hu? Well, I don’t know if they have been together or not, but it doesn’t sound very hard to believe, does it? Watch “Te lo agradezco, pero no” video clip and draw your own conclusions:

Shakira will be the only Latin artist at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards. “Beautiful Liar”, the video of Shakira and Beyonce’s duet, got four nominations: Best Choreography, Most Earth-Shattering Collaboration, Best Director and Best Editing.

What I don’t understand is why didn’t Shakira get any nominations on her own.

Beyonce got other three nominations: Best Female Artist of the Year, Quadruple Threat Of The Year and Best Video of the Year with Irreplaceable, becoming the most nominated singer, along with Justin Timberlake.

The 2007 MTV Video Music Awards ceremony, which includes a total of nine categories, will be broadcasted live from the Palms Resort Casino in Las Vegas, on September 9 - 9PM ET.

Last Saturday (August 4th) Spanish singer Alejandro Sanz kicked off his tour “El Tren de Los Momentos” with a concert in Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

“Santiago. Buenas noches, gracias por venir. Esta noche vamos a hacer el viajecito, súbanse con nosotros. lo vamos a pasar bien” (Santiago. Good night, thank you for coming. Tonight we’re going to make a little trip, come on up, we’re going to have a good time), said Alejandro Sanz to an excited public.

The concert was a huge success, but the highest point of the night was Shakira’s entrance, dressed in a very, very small red spangled dress. I didn’t like the dress at all, it made Shakira’s legs look chunky; and it didn’t had the “Shakira style”, if you know what I mean. I really don’t understand why did she choose that outfit, but what do I know.

Anyway, the crowd went crazy when she stepped into the stage, to perform “Te lo agradezco, pero no“, near the end of the concert. During the song, Sanz kissed Shakira in the cheek, and everybody screamed and applauded. Many fans are still wondering what he could have said to her at that moment. And everybody is still complaining because Shakira only performed one song.

It’s been said that Shakira will be in the “El Tren de Los Momentos” tour, but I’m not so sure. I know Shakira and Alejandro are friend and all, but it seems a little too much, to go on a tour that will be on 23 cities and will last almost two months, to perform just one song. Maybe it’s just marketing… we’ll see.

So, I guess right know you would like to see Shakira and Alejandro, the kiss, the dress… Wouldn’t you? Well, here it is. It’s a video made by someone who went to the concert, so the quality is not really good. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best video of Shakira and Alejandro in Santiago de Compostela I could find in Youtube; and I think this one is pretty interesting anyway. Enjoy!

This is one of the most beautiful performances of “Ojos Así” I’ve ever seen. I just love the red outfit, and the fire definitely gives it a wild touch. I hope you like it as much as do. Enjoy!

Shakira will record a duet with the Mexican guitarist Carlos Santana, which will be part of Santana’s new album. The album will be a compilation of Santana’s “Greatest Hits”.

This compilation will contain three new songs, in addition to the the great hits: the duet with Shakira and the rapper Lil’ Wayne, a duet with Tina Turner (The Game of Love), and yet another duet with Nickelback’s vocalist, Chad Kroeguer.

Shakira and Santana had already worked together in the past; the guitarist plays the melody of Illegal, one of Shakira’s songs from the Oral Fixation Vol.2 album.

It seems like Shakira and Penélope Cruz are becoming close friends. The chicas go shopping and partying at the most fashionable places in Hollywood; the Colombian singer and the Spanish actress have become inseparable.

While the interpreter of “Ojos Así” enjoys her announced vacations, after the big success of the Oral Fixation album and tour, Almodóvar’s muse has become Shakira’s “parranda” (party) pal.

A week ago they went together to John Mayer’s concert after party, and finished the night at the Parc Club, one of the most exclusive clubs in Los Angeles, where celebrities like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears are often spotted. Last Friday (June 15) the girls went clubbing again.

This time, Shakira was looking really hot, wearing booty shorts and cowgirl boots. Penélope was fine, although her jeans were a bit too long.

A few days before Shakira was seen with Avril Lavigne. As I’ve said, I like Penélope better.
