Thats why she keeps having worldwide hits and has Grammys and Latin Grammys. J.Lo has neither. Even Pitbull and will.i.am have a Latin Grammy while J.Lo does not |
And the Queen, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Co made global impact too without the Grammy's so whats the point of Grammy's in this conversation at all?

 Doesn't this mean only like 1% of her fans bought her new album on her debut week?

Diana Ross, Bob Marley, Nas, Jimi Hendrix, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Journey, Tupac, Biggie also never won Grammys. 
What's Grammys when you are a Global International Superstar and ICON.

Lets end this... the topic is "more impact" not who has biggest impact in selling records and Grammy's 
... Lets compare their biggest impacts.
Shakira - Impact in Music
JLo - Impacts in Music Industry, Film Industry, Fashion Industry
Shakira 1
JLo 3
Bigger Impact - JLo
Math is simple.

You were the one saying Shakira had no impact, and you know very well that isnt true.
By the way, since you were talking about their global #1s:
J.Lo
If You Had My Love - 4 weeks at #1
Waiting For Tonight - 2 weeks at #1
Love Dont Cost A Thing - 4 weeks at #1
Aint It Funny - 2 weeks at #1
Get Right - 2 weeks at #1
On The Floor - 3 weeks at #1
TOTAL = 17 weeks at #1
Whenever, Wherever - 10 weeks at #1
Hips Dont Lie - 16 weeks at #1
TOTAL = 26 weeks at #1
Songs of them to reach at least 2 Million points this decade:
J.Lo:
On The Floor
Dance Again
Shakira:
Waka Waka
Loca
Cant Remember To Forget You

Grammys mean nothing, FaceBook fans mean nothing, VEVO Views mean nothing, Sales r fake... whatever. 
As far I can read, this is about music. And I havent bashed J Lo ONCE in the thread, while you keep bashing Shakira's achievements to prove your point.
