Gorgeous!
The Colombian singer, Shakira celebrated her 39th birthday on Feb. 2 by reminding us all how glowing she is without a drop of makeup on, posting a picture of herself on her official social media accounts “Birthday bun / Una ducha y a celebrar mi cumple! Shak,” the 39-year-old captioned the photo showing her with her curly up.
The Hips Don’t Lie singer has enjoyed an incredible 12 months since giving birth to her second child, smashing YouTube records five years after releasing her World Cup anthem and doing her part for charity as a goodwill ambassador for Unicef.
Since arriving on the worldwide stage in 2001 with hit single Whenever, Wherever, Shakira is estimated to have sold more than 100 million records worldwide, and holds the position of being one of the best-selling female artists of recent times. Admirably with all her achievements and milestones, Shakira remains humble, telling Glamour magazine in 2014: “Success happened little by little for me. I tasted the flavour of fame in small doses… One day [I realised I was famous] enough. But here’s the thing: I’m still hungry. But I’m not hungry for fame – just the need to prove to myself that I can still do this.”
In the midst of juggling her career, Shakira has become a mother to two sons, Milan, three, and one-year-old Sasha, and is grounded by her relationship with Barcelona FC star Gerard Pique, whom she began dating in 2010. Addressing her adjusted attitude since entering parenthood, Shakira told Parents Latina magazine: “Becoming a mum forced me to re-prioritise and make room for the things that are most important, while recognising that there are things I can let go of and the world won’t crumble around me.”
