Things You Didn't Know About Katy Perry►►

Clevver's bringing you ocho facts about Shakira that you can trust are legit LOCO cause' we and especially our hips don't lie. Number 1, Shaki is sneaky. After she wrapped her tour in 2005, Shakira secretly attended a college course at UCLA in Los Angeles, ninja style, in full disguise. The global megastar wanted to take a summer history class. In order to keep her identity under wraps (get it?) she dressed like a dude and told people her name was Isabel. Let's be real, even in boy clothes, Shakira probably still looked like a goddess. Como se llama, bonita!

Speaking of hitting the books, it makes sense now... Coming in at number 2, Shakira is not only a beauty, but brains as well. In fact she's pretty much Einstein status with a reported IQ of 140, Einstein was about 160. May I remind you that the average IQ is 100! Shakira is a genius. Stay in school kids!

But don't be like this at school... Number 3, when Shaki was young, she was rejected from joining choir because her music teacher thought she sounded like a goat. Who's laughin' now music teacher? Being the humble person that she is, Shakira has said she actually agrees with the ongoing goat comparison, "I did have a voice a bit like a goat but my dad told me to never give up and to keep going and it paid off." Darn Skippy it did. If Shakira sounds like a goat, you must sound like asses.

Moving on to number 4! We all know Shakira can work it on the dance floor with her killer Latin hip action, but it actually started with her Lebanese Grandmother who taught her to belly dance to pay homage to her middle Eastern roots. Did you know that Shakir can also do some street inspired pop and locking? Now that we think about it, the singer did give us a sexy taste of that in here. Werrrrk (snaps snaps) Speaking of sexy moves, apparently that's how Shakira snagged her boyfriend Gerard Pique.

Coming in at number 5, Shaki and her boo met when he appeared in her "Waka Waka" music video for the 2010 FIFA World Cup song. She is quite the she-cougar-wolf for catching this studly soccer player Gerard who is EXACTLY 10 years younger than her. Yes they share the same birthday of February 2nd.

Number 6! Speaking of people younger than her, did you know Shakira did a duet with Selena Gomez in 2010 on Wizards of Waverly Place?! I did. So apparently Shakira didn't shy away from the Disney channel but did turn down a MAJOR film role.

Coming in at number 7, Steven Spielberg offered Shaki a part in his now famous film, 'The Mask of Zorro' in 1998. She was going to play the lead role that ended up going to Catherine Zeta Jones because Shaki felt her English wasn't good enough. Ah Shakira that would have been a game changer! Plus, give yourself a break you're penta-lingual.

Bringing it home at number 8, Shakira can speak five languages or should I say, Ella puede hablar en cinco idiomas. Shakira is fluent in Spanish, English, French, Italian, and Portuguese. That's muy loco! It's like the United Nations is having a party in her mouth. That wraps our tasty Shakira fact frenzy. How many did you know? Tell us in the comments below.
