My hero is a person who makes kids realize what music is really about. My singer sings in English and Spanish. One of my favorite songs is "Underneath Your Clothes." She hasn’t been married but she does have a boyfriend. My singer is known as Shakira. She has been helping people that have suffered losses from the natural disasters in the world.

“We should care for Columbia,” said Shakira. Shakira is a wonderful and beautiful lady. For example, she donated thousands of dollars to the poor people of Columbia. Shakira gave them clothes and food. She has a wonderful life in Columbia. Her parents help her in her dream. Her parents help her in anything she would do. They loved her so much.

My hero lived in a Columbian city. When she came to America to sing, it was hard for her because she didn’t know any English. Then, she came to a show called Don Francisco where she got famous. She was only 17 when she came to the United States. She had a wonderful life in America but then she went back to Columbia with her boyfriend where they now live in a big, beautiful house with a gorgeous yard. The house has two stories where her parents also live. She has no children but she has a loving boyfriend who really cares about her a lot.

Shakira grew up in the 1970's. At that time, there weren't any scooters or electric scooters. She lived with her parents in an average house in Columbia. She didn’t have anything that we have now. She is a celebrity but she behaves like a normal person. She does not show-off her celebrity status. She is self-confident and doesn't care much about public opinion.

Shakira is my hero; she is kind, and beautiful. She is talented and has a lot of money. But what makes her differet is that she cares about other people. She sings about her feelings and she nevers uses any bad words in her lyrics. She always cares for other people and not just herself. Moreover, she dances very well. She can move her body like a belly dancer. She also has a wonderful voice. That’s why Shakira is my hero!
