Pop singer-songwriter, Shakira, answers 20 questions in Marie Claire’s April issue, revealing a beauty tip, secret talent and more. While she loves chocolate, museums and history, two things most people don’t know are that Shakira has a superstition of hats on the bed and she has the ability to put her legs over her head.
The Voice judge tells Marie Claire one thing that makes her mad is that many children in the world have no access to quality education. In fact, at the early age of 18 she started her own charity, Pies Descalzos/Barefoot Foundation, that provides education to vulnerable children in Colombia and other developing countries. Shakira’s three most important beauty secrets are less is more, staying rested & hydrated and a lot of Vitamin C.
On her greatest joy:
“My family, particularly my son Milan’s smile.”
On her favorite TV shows:
“Reruns of ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm.’ My boyfriend and I have been really into ‘Suits’ lately, too.”
On Pies Descalzos/Barefoot Foundation:
“We provide education to vulnerable children in Colombia and other developing countries. I am an avid believer that education – and especially early childhood development – is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty.”
On her secret talent:
“I’m double-jointed. I can put my legs over my head, which freaks people out.”
