Shakira is a popular Latina rock singer, born in Columbia from mixed Columbian, Lebanese and Macedonian heritage. Her singing in Spanish captured fans throughout Latina America from an early age, and the first song she wrote in English was Objection from the multi-million selling album Laundry Service. Shakira's trademark belly dancing was originally taught to her by her Lebanese grandmother as a way of connecting to her middle eastern roots. Shakira's name also has Arabic origins, meaning full of grace. Shakira is one of the highest-selling Columbian recording artists ever, having sold in excess of 50 million albums around the world. Her success has also bought her a collection of top music industry awards, including Grammy wins and Golden Globe nominations.
