Shakira Talks Britney Spears Comparisons

Shakira was interviewed by the Sunday Mirror where she addressed her change to blond hair and comparisons to Britney Spears. Shakira said, “People say Britney and I are alike because we’re both blonde, petite and we started in this business very young. But we’re two very different artists. I don’t hate or despise her like people make out but I suppose we are rivals and that’s fine by me. I’m more geared to an adult market and my music is a lot more rock and up-tempo than Britney’s. I think she is still just a young girl really – but she’s grown up a lot.”
