Shakira Was Surprised By Sex Symbol Status

The Malaysia Star reports Shakira has said she was surprised that the American and British public quickly turned her into a sex symbol, putting her on the covers of men’s magazines. “For a second, I was like, ‘Hmmm, really? Am I that sexy?’ Of course, I enjoyed it. I felt flattered. It was fun, but then after a while it just gets boring. I’m a little sick of that. And I want to move on.”
