The United Nations awards ceremony was near completion. The recipients of the Defining Trends Magazine Trendsetter’s Award’s had made their speeches and were watching some of the talent performing that night. The evening saw a singer from Sydney, Australia take the mike along with band members Mauro Satalino and Jose Guevarra.
What everyone witnessed was a rebirth of sorts. She sang three songs and had the undivided attention of those who remained. She left her mark on the evening and as the event was covered in several media outlets, Natalia Segura appeared in many of them. This is the same woman who three years ago was part of Univision’s up and comer’s promotional tour. She shared the promotion with Paula DeAnda, who went on to some good successes in the business.
El tercer disco en inglés de la colombiana Shakira, “She Wolf”, llego a EEUU, “Give It Up To Me”, con el que espera reeditar el éxito de aquel “Hips Don't Lie”. Según la publicación especializada Billboard, dos tercios de las ventas en EEUU de “Oral Fixation, Vol. 2” (2005), el anterior trabajo discográfico en inglés de la artista, llegaron tras el lanzamiento de “Hips Don't Lie”, en donde intervino el rapero Wyclef Jean. Su primer álbum en inglés fue “Laundry Service”, publicado en 2001.
Ahora Shakira busca repetir la estrategia de “Hips Don't Lie” con la publicación de “Give It Up To Me”, una canción producida por Timbaland en la que colabora el rapero Lil Wayne, y que sirve para calentar motores justo antes de la llegada a EEUU de “She Wolf”, más de un mes después de su lanzamiento en Europa, América Latina, Japón y Australia.
