Shakira Willem Isabel Mebarak Ripoll.
Her name in Arabic means “ Thankful or “ The women who always thanks” & it means " light” in Hindi "….

Also Shakira have 5 brothers &2 sisters from her father Willem Mebarak chadid…. She also used to have a bigger brother, but he died in age of 17 at a car accident…. As she said: “my earliest memory was when my brother my biggest brother ... died I remember that I was at the living room with my mom, I was 10 years old…. And I was playing’ with my hands and legs when the phone rang... I remember my mom face turned into pale... Then I’ve heared a scream but I don’t remember if she was from my mother or from the house keeper” So Shakira’s best friends were her mom & dad…. Her mom is Nydia Torano Ripoll…. She has got married to Shaki’s father when he moved to Colombia... Shakira’s brother are “Tonyo, Edward, mosies, albert & Tony” & her sisters are “Patricia, Lucy” Shakira don’t see her saplings a lot because all of them have his own life so they don’t see each other that much.
shakiralove/thatbig.GIF Shakira used to hate school…. Her best subject was English and she really hates the math…. She was the first one who gets out of the class when the bell rings... Most of the time Shakira was busy written poems at her note book when the teacher give a lesson & most of the time the teacher surprise her with a question, but when she stand up all she need is full look at the board & she get out with it..

shakiralove/isee.GIF Shakira’s favorite snack is Pepsi & pastry & she get really upset if u asked her if u can join her in her meal….. At Shakira’s music class there was a teacher that will never let her in the school quire…
She said” Once at my school there was that music teacher that will never let me in the school quire I was begin him like this plllllllllease … there was no way that he could let me in” at her young years Shakirs’s friend Kathy say’s that she & Shakira other friend used to tell her that she sing like a goat as Shaki say that was because of her pronounce and her prado …. Shakirra used to have allotted of friends but all of them were the same people she used to play with them when was a kid... Shaki’ve also had a lot of boyfriend, but all of them have been cheating on her... that’s why Shaki hates any person who can lie on her … because all of her ex boyfriends were cheating and lying!!

shakiralove/smile.GIF Shakira wanted to be a model so she was going to be a model after one of her additions at Kelvin Kline company, but Sony Colombia’s have send a record deal to shakira when she have done an addition also for them as Shaki say the one who were behind her enter to the music carrier is her mom because as she remember…. That she was sitting with her mom at the living room and her mom was reading the newspaper when Skaki’s Mom notice a competition in the newspaper “Singing competition” so Shaki was a little bit shy, but if she didn’t take a part at that competition she would be never became a singer as she said after that competition Shaki have won the first place and get addicted to music as she say “ after that minute I got addicted to the mic”& she say’s “I’ve learn how to shake it when I was 4 years I guess nobody’s teach me how to do that it was in my D.N.A because I was 100%lebanon so it’s in my blood”….
shakiralove/love.GIF Shaki started to write poems when she was 8 years old her first song was “your dark glasses” she have wrote it to her father…. “He was wearing those glasses to hide his face. To hide his pain” & started to play on the harmonica when she was 9 to 10 & she start to play on the guitar….
shakiralove/niceface.GIF Shaki didn’t put any albums when she was at school…. When she have finish the high school Shaki have put 2 albums “magia” ”magic” & ”peligro” ”danger” magia contains the songs that she wrote from 8 to 13.. & peligro was from her teenage years…. Shakira have graduated from high school at the age 15…. At the age of 17 Shakira have made a foundation called “pies descarloze” “pare feet’s” for the poor kids in Colombia & all over the world…. Also she named her album on it “pies descarloze”

shakiralove/reds.GIF At 1997 Shakira was weeding to Colombia to record her new album, but she has lost her bag…. Someone has stolen it…. Shaki was really confused because it was hard for her to memorize the songs that have been stolen…. So Shakira have named her album “que los la les landarios” (where are the thieves?)...At 1998 Shaki have typed her performance at MTV unplugged…. And it was on of her most successful albums…. At1999 Shaki was well known as “ojos ASI” singer... she has dyed her hair into red…. As she say she have seen this color on the actress of batman & robin…”uma thourman”because of shaki’s hair friends start to avoid her at the pool because when she used to dive all the water around her turn into pink so that was a little bit impressing for her friends…. At the end of 1999 shakira started to prepare her self for her next album….
But she have been co prating with Gloria estaphan to translate her songs into English, but shaki didn’t like it “at the first I’ve agree but then I’ve changed my mind.. I need to connect my fans by my self even if it means that I should learn Chinese to do that I’ll do it for them” so she started to take upgrading lessons in English.. at the beginning of 2000 shakira was sitting in a restaurant when she have first meet “Antonio du la rua” she say “when I saw him I was really crazy about him I was going to the bath room and get back from there just to pass by his table and also to make my self recognize able.. I guess I didn’t go to the bathroom as much as I did that night” after 2 months they’ve been engage to each other she start to take tango dance classes with Antonio…at the beginning of 2000 she have released her first English singles “objection tango” ”whenever wherever” “underneath your clothes”& for Spanish version of “Landry service” “de service la vandreia” she have released “que me quedas te dijo madred,surte,te avico,tu aunchio” she made a huge success all over the world with that album.. So she was living a really busy life for the 3 years after it has been released... from an award show to a photo shot to an interview and even be a guest in one of Nicola din’s shows…. Her hit single “whenever, wherever” have been in the top of the charts for 11 months she have even been hosted by Arabic channels like “dream T.V” &” when Razan from M.B.C have interviewed her”… at 2002 at the video music a ward on that day shaki was so happy because she have learned how to say hi in Arabic

Some Shaki Bio Tidbits from me:

Shakira's Mother, Nidia Mebarak Ripoll, is from Baranquilla, Colombia. Her Father, William Mebarak Chedid, is from Zahle, Lebanon.
Shakira first began to bellydance at the age of four, when she danced to Arabic music at a Lebanese restaurant in New York with her father at her side.
Shakira's current boyfriend is Argentinian Antonio De La Rua, son of the former president of Argentina. The two met at a restaurant in January 2000. She fell in love the moment she saw him.
At the age of 17, Shakira established the Pies Descalzos foundation which aims to help the poor people of Columbia, especially children. Through this charity foundation, schools have been built and free sneakers were given out to the poorest Columbian children who do not own any.

More to come later when I remember them... shakiralove/Hi.GIF shakiralove/happy.GIF

Fact: Shakira wrote over forty songs by the time she was ten

Fact: Shakira means "woman full of grace" in Arabic


Ankh es en Amun- 06-13-2005
One thing I cannot understand is why everyone thinks that Shakira means "woman full of grace" in Arabic, it actually means "thankful".

Xtina- 06-13-2005
yeah i know that .....

her name means " shukran " in arabic .. shakiralove/gr8.GIF

Ankh es en Amun- 06-13-2005
Exactly, so not to be rude, but where did the "woman full of grace" come from?

Xtina- 06-13-2005

i dont really know ... for my as an arabic person ... i know that her name means
"thankful" or "shukran" ... but the english media transelate it wrong ! ...

Ankh es en Amun- 06-13-2005
You don't have to do that shakiralove/Eww.GIF , I have just always wondered why everyone always think that it means that, it's just a mystery.

Xtina- 06-13-2005
