The CD will be "fun with dance, disco and electronic sounds".

Colombia's superstar appeared at her press conference more mature, with a different styling and two and a half hours too late, local media reported.

Like Shakira's new looks, her new CD will be different than anything else she did before. "It's a different album, the rhythms [...] are mainly electronic and dance. I still like to merge music from India and other cultures, also with references to the Carnival of Barranquilla," Colombia's biggest superstar told El Tiempo in an interview.

If you’re not careful, Shakira’s "La Loba" will have you howling at the moon. As the first single from her as-yet-untitled upcoming album (out Sept. 25), it gives listeners a taste of what’s to come while leaving us eager for more. The dance floor–ready track has a strong disco feel (you can almost imagine the lights swirling around), as well as some serious heavy breathing and dictionary-worthy lyrics. "Quién no ha querida a una diosa licántropa" is one of the opening lines and, yes, it includes the word “licántropa,” which, according to Merriam-Webster, means "a delusion that one has become or assumed the characteristics of a werewolf."

That's right... two!! The first album to be released will be in English followed by one in Spanish two months later. A release date for the album has not been confirmed yet, but expect your hips to be moving a lot in the next few weeks!

It has been rumored that Shakira has been spotted in Los Angeles shooting the video for a new song entitled, "La Loba," translated to "She Wolf" in English. The pop-sensation has released a promotional version of her song as fans anxiously wait for the full version.

The buzz is that her new album is going to be called "We'll Never Know" and it features hot artists like, the American heartthrob, Pharell and the rapper Wycleaf Jean-who we saw in the smash hit, "Hips Don't Lie."

The song is very different from what we have heard so far from the singer. It is of course, very upbeat, but it has a new disco and electro-pop feel to it. Take a listen below to the Spanish version and let us know what you think. Are you excited to hear what the "She Wolf" is up to?

]]> 13 seconds of Shakira's new single She Wolf http://lovelyshakira.com/article.asp?articleid=53887 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 08:02 GMT http://lovelyshakira.com/article.asp?articleid=53887 13 seconds of Shakira's new single She Wolf

Colombia's biggest pop star Shakira will be releasing her new single She Wolf next Monday. If you want to know what the single is going to sound like, here's a 13-second, high-quality snippet for you.

Apart from some noises in the end, the snippet has none of Shakira's voice or the melody of the song. What is does have is an old school disco / breakdance beat.

]]> Shakira Is A Wolf And SHE WILL EAT YOU http://lovelyshakira.com/article.asp?articleid=53682 Wed, 24 Jun 2009 06:38 GMT http://lovelyshakira.com/article.asp?articleid=53682 Shakira-Is-A-Wolf-And-SHEIt’s true. Last week, two eyewitness videos appeared on YouTube showing the diminutive singer grievously attacking two men in New York City. Now literally fives of YouTubers across the globe have posted similar videos, in which many of the attackers don’t actually resemble Shakira in any way.

We can only conclude that Shakira is a shapeshifter and that you, reader, may be in danger even as you read this.

Look around you. Shakira could be anything - your Adam Lambert poster, your diet pills, any one of your porcelain unicorn figurines. If you suspect a unicorn figurine of being Shakira, DO NOT engage it in a phoned-in, atonal rap.

We haven’t heard from Wyclef Jean in days.And this is so unexpected. We assumed that Shakira Shakira Beyonce Beyonce Benecol Alhambras was lounging on some irradiated Colombian beach, dreaming up another album’s worth of songs about horses and thongs, advising Gordon Brown on public policy, and popping out her ribcage for passing children.
