Did you know that aside from being an electric performer and friggin' gorgeous, Shakira is an ambassador of goodwill? Seriously. She may be an amazing Colombian songwriter who was clearly channeling Lady Gaga in a concert in Milan yesterday when she wore a billowing, full-bodied hot pink head-to-toe gown, but when she's not busy dressing up all awesome and shaking her [honest] hips, she's also saving children. For 15 years, the international pop star has been heading up Barefoot Organization, which brings aid and education to children in need all across the world.
So let's get this straight: Not only does she have killer hips, a biz-angin' body and skin that rivals Beyoncé in the don't-hate-me-because-I'm-glowy department, even her heart is humongous? Yup, it's true. She recently told "Gulf News" that "with fame comes an obligation and a greater sense of duty," adding, "I have always felt that the best thing I can do with my voice is use it to help others who don't have one, and to draw focus to more important issues like the right to a quality education."
Hottest philanthropist ever? (Sorrrry, Bill Gates!)
