Shakira 'Flattered' by Taylor Swift's 'SNL' Impersonation

By Amber James Posted Dec 1st 2009 01:00PM

When Taylor Swift did an impersonation of Shakira on 'SNL,' we had to ask the 'She Wolf' singer what she really thought. "I found it very funny. She is very sweet and very talented. She's got the full package," Shakira told PopEater. "It's good to know she has a sense of humor as well."

The 'SNL' skit featured a faux-infomercial for the movie soundtrack to 'Bunny Business.' Swift impersonating Shakira dances around in a tight black leotard and sings 'Bunny Hips Don't Lie.' Watch the original video:

Talk about broken English! JSIMANCAS...go back to school, learn how to spell and how your own language works grammatically before you criticize someone whose native language is something other than English. Shakira has been a pop star since the mid-90s and has been very successful in the Spanish-speaking world and now here. She has never been negative about ANYONE and other than promoting her charity work for the poor in Columbia (her native country), she stays out of the limelight. Good job to Shakira for having a sense of humor about being parodied and for being classy.

Sorry to tell you but, is not about english is about respect, and Taylor is so inmasure and stupid to do things like that. I like Shakira because she never say or do thinks to offens other people and that is really a talen.

Her english might be "broken" but she sure as hell still sings and dances great! And that means it doesnt make a difference. She's still a huge star!!!
and FYI; there actually is nice and honest people out in the world.

I ♥ Shakira she is the best!!

Her English sounded just fine on that interview. It's the rappers that can't speak English, and they were born in this country.

You mean, it wasn't bad enough she acknowledged Kanye West in her opening monologue?

OF COURSE SHAKIRA HAVE TO REACT THAT WAY SHE CAN'T GO AGAINTS TAYLOR OR ANY OF OUR SINGERS SHE IS TRYING TO PENETRATE IN OUR HOMES WITH HER BROKEN ENGLISH . SATISFIED ?

Seriously, is this how you talk? For the record, it's spelled "against".

By Angie

It's "has to" not "have" and you turned your sentence into a run on. If you want to bash someone for "broken" English, correct your own broken English.

By Julie

uh, she's trying to penetrate WHAT in our homes? I seriously have no idea what you're talking about. You sound as if you don't want immigrants in America, which is dumb because, chances are, YOU wouldn't be here if your ancestors hadn't immigrated. just sayin'.
