Whenever, Wherever (Suerte). Oral Fixation Vol. 1, Oral Fixation Vol. 2. It's almost like she read my mind when she picked her album titles. Hips Don't Lie, Ojos Asi, The Oral Fixation Tour - need we say more? Is it too late to sign up for that tour?

Shakira is from Barranquilla, Columbia (born Feb. 2, 1977) and got her incredible bellydancing talent from her Lebanese grandmother, who was her instructor growing up, and rumor has it, quite the dancer herself back in the day. She's one the most successful crossover artists ever, with smash hits and platinum records in both Latin and North America.

Even if her music isn't your flavor, her stage presence and mesmerizing motion surely must be. She's got the hip motion to put a man in the damn hospital... mental ward from watching her, intensive care if she was putting it down for real. We can all dream, right?
