She was the first latina actress to be paid $1million paving the way for the likes of jessica alba, eva longoria, etc. she started the trend of female celebrities having all these product lines such as frangrances. Bennifer started the whole couple nickname trend. She was and still is considered a jack of all trades. She also started the trend of high profile overpaid pop star judges. Most watched youtube video for a female artist. She also made curvy women popular paving the way for beyonce, kim, nicki,etc. Not to mention her longevity she was a huge star in the early 2000s and still is a household name. Shakira is just a succesful pop star thats been around awhile but has no impact and is overshadowed by other pop stars from her generation such as britney, beyonce, pink, etc.

this. I don't think Shakira it's a real legend in Latin America, Thalia is much more successful in this aspect (because of her Telenovelas).

J Lo is known only for her Pitbull songs. without him, she wouldn't be what she is now honestly... US only.

Shakira has been a Grammy-winning legend since her debut. And she's a worldwide star, her vevo views, facebook likes, sales,Golden Globe, Grammys[2 Grammys, 9 Latin Grammys, 12 Billboards, MTV EMAs, VMAs, 7 VEVO Certified, 4 World Music Awards.] show this too. And I really appreciate that she sticks with her sound & does music that she love, instead of selling out for dance club music. Even when she collabed with Pitbull[Rabiosa] she didnt change her sound, it was sill her style. And she sings in Spanish:* and never gave that up...
And she has iconic songs like:
"Whenever, Wherever"
"Objection (Tango)"
"La Tortura"
"Don't Bother"
"Hips Don't Lie"
"Beautiful Liar"
"She Wolf"

+ my faves:
"Did It Again"
"Give It Up"
"Gypsy"
"Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)"
"Loca"
"Rabiosa"
"Addicted To You"
"Get It Started"
"Can't Remember to Forget You"

I also love J Lo & her music & Latinas in general[Hello Selenita...], But Shakira will always remain the main Latina! <3

And let's dont forget: "In 2011, Shakira was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, despite her turning down the opportunity in 2004."
"In 2008, for instance, Forbes magazine ranked her as the fourth highest earning woman in music. She was included on the list behind Madonna, Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion."

And her charity work- something she is known even more worldwide:
"She currently serves as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and helped launch Latin America in Soliditary Action. This is in addition to the work that she does with her organization, the Barefoot Foundation, which helps make school available for all children, no matter where they live or how much money their family has. Most recently, Shakira was recognized with the Chevalier De L'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. She is the first Colombian to receive this recognition. Also in 2012, Shakira has been nominated for one of the top charitable awards in the world — the Prince of Asturias Concord Award. The Concord Award recognizes philanthropists around the world and previous winners include Stephen Hawking and J.K. Rowling."

LOL, people only know her for her Pitball songs, BUT LAST TIME I CHECKED, she has MORE NUMBER 1S than Shakira on the Hot 100, ( If You Had My Love, Im Real, Aint It Funny and All I have)which dont FEATURE PITBALL,

If You had my love
Waiting For Tonight
No Me Ames
Lets Get Loud
Love Dont Cost A Thing
Im Real
Jenny From The Block
Get Right,

HER MAJOR HITS that were BEFORE PITABLL

Please expalin to me how Shakira has worked with Pitball TWICE and were BOTH FLOPS

And keep on listing all of the social networking status and awards, Jlo has WON 3 AMAS, MTV VMAS, EMAS, Billboard, Golden Globe Nominated and has countless videos that have topped the 100 million mark
According to the Guiness Book of Records, she is the most followed actress and has the most viewed video by a female artist

You bring up Forbes, but she already TOPPED THAT LIST, WHERE WAS SHAKIRA?

Jens Charity work where do we start

The Lopez Family Foundation which provides medicine for Women and Children, even the First Lady OF PANAMA, came to suppost her when her, she launched her telemedicine in 7 hospitals in Panama, during her Dance Again Tour
She has been honourd by the March Of Dimes
Honoured by the Ally for Equality, serving as EXECUTIVE PRODUCER FOR The Fosters
Honoured by amfAR
Partnered with United Nations Foundation for Global Moms Relay
Honoured by the UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)

She has been honoured with her Walk Of Fame
Won her Legend AWARD AT THE WORLD MUSIC AWARDS
Honored with her Icon award from Premios Juventud
Honoured with her Cryatal Award, Women IN Film

Jennifers IMPACT is way beyond music

So educated your DAMN SELF, before making dumb ass comments

That's a lie and you know it. Thalia is a legend in Tv and music but Shakira has surpassed her Latina sistren Ww in recognition. Girls just hate to admit the facts. Music icon period. Jlo releases average songs and movies with little impact and no acclaim. But her green dress is the only iconic thing she brings.. Little actual tangible talent if compared to Shaki.Jennifer just shows up to a studio, she doesn't write, she's a very limited (at times cringeworthy) actress, and cannot sing live. She's only a US tabloid icon known for what she wears at the award ceremonies she's not nominated for.

Exactly... Most people cant. again the US - J Lo, worldwide Shakira. Whatever people say it wont change the fact, that MOST people[not me, I know J Lo's discography very well.] think her big career started with On The Flor & MAYBE they know Love Dont Cost A Thing.
One of my mates thinks J Lo & Jennifer Lopez r two different people...
She's amazing, but even my mom & dad, who r so not music lovers know Shakira[with her dancing & unique voice] & jam to Hips Dont Lie or Whenever Wherever when they get played on the radio.
It's very easy to ignore what people say & just quote 1 sentence out of topic to say it's not true...
Btw Shakira's ex-label didnt release most of her singles in the US, so it's normal that they didnt become hits in the US.
Again, I completely love all Latinas & I think Jen is amazing. I just wish she does more real music & more acting & NO MORE Pitbull collabs.

Shakira stans do the most to make feuds.

[Timber]

Doesn't Shakira have an album that outsold all of JLo'a albums combined?

[Kiddo.]

Jennifer is more recognized in the US so her.

Neither, but I can see Shakira being a Legend in Latin America / Spain / France.

I love JLo, but she's nowhere near a Legend and will never be one.

This!! Neither are legends. But that's not good for Jlo because I don't see her having any more impact or huge success to help turn her into a legend. The industry is ageist, leaving Shakira with more time to become a legend. And like you said, I can see her becoming a legend in Latin America/Spain and France.

[SixWholeYears]

J.Lo already is one, if not so close to being one.

Shakira is nowhere near being an icon maybe in her home country.

Thank you!!

J.Lo is criminally underrated here on ATRL.

J.Lo obviously, and it's not even close.

Shakira is closer to being a legend and J. Lo is just an icon and will probably stay that way.
