I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this Shakira spoof.  The accompanying text says the guy made it for his Spanish final.  I wonder what grade he got?

Happy Birthday, furiosity!!

OMG ewwww... well, hopefully his prof has a sense of humor...

It's a pretty good editing job, at least. Now I need to watch the original video to see how similar it is. :-P

[bolboreta.livejournal.com]

The original video is a bit different, and leaves you thinking "wow, how does she manage to move like that?" and in my case, drooling.

PS: it's all over You Tube (http://www.youtube.com/results?search=shakira+hips+don%27t+lie&search_type=search_videos&search=Search) if you haven't found it yet :-)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Ooh, thanks! Looks like she's been belly dancing for a long time...

[jedirita.livejournal.com]

Yes, belly-dancing. She's part Arab - her father's from Lebanon.

[j-folked.livejournal.com]

Oh, Shakira is totally drool worthy.

My fave she-dances-in video is the one for Ojos Así. ¿Lo has visto?

Ah, Hola!!!

[bolboreta.livejournal.com]

She totally is (my sister says "she's too short to be hot", I think she needs glasses).

No, I hadn't seen the video of Ojos Así, but now I have (you gotta love the Internet!) *grins* Good choice, definitely ;-) Besides, Ojos Así is an awesome song even without the dancing.

Hola! *waves*

[j-folked.livejournal.com]

She is. Great body and she has such an exotic beauty, so far from ordinary. Plus the way she moves.

Ojos Así is a great song. The dancing just make it all the more fabulous.

Editing job? I guess...

I had trouble getting past the blonde wig and pendulous belly... *giggles*

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Speaking as one who spent several days a few weeks ago trying to edit video for work (and not doing very well), I was mightily impressed that the lips were synched with the music. ;-)

It was sort of a Chris Farley tribute, wasn't it?

[nekkidchick.livejournal.com]

LOL... yeah, totally... it made me think of that old SNL skit where Chris Farley and Patrick Swayze try out for the Chippendales... LMAO!!!

[simmysim.livejournal.com]

The only one who bothered to learn the words was the one who only had to say 'Shakira.' That is extremely humorous to me.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I liked all the phallic gun imagery, myself. ;-)

[j-folked.livejournal.com]

LMFAO!

I just wonder just what the hell does that have to do with Spanish. I mean, in my Advance English classes we would have to pick songs and work with them, but always related to the language itself.

It is hilarious, in any case.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I know -- I was thinking the same thing. There's like four words in the song in Spanish. :-P

[j-folked.livejournal.com]

Oh, there were a little more than four words but it is definitely nowhere near enough to justify using the song for a Spanish class.

Then again, maybe the theacher finds prancing around in a towel hold by duck tape cultural enough. LOL

[bolboreta.livejournal.com]

And, she has a version of the song in Spanish (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hMSSqIORGI&search=shakira%20sera%20sera)! Sure, I don't think there's an official video for that one, but if you're going to make your own...

[piratesmile331.livejournal.com]

Thanks for this video! I just sent it to about 20 people. I couldn't stop laughing. I'm not sure why I found the gun imagery funny, but when the one guy says "Bonita" and holds the gun up to his face, it just made me fall on the floor laughing.
And Shakira is gorgeous and talented. She deserves her popularity.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

LOL! I hope they enjoy it! The phallic gun imagery was killing me.

And yes, Shakira is seriously talented. :-)

[lafiammatabella.livejournal.com]

OMG I'm so disturbed. Was his towel held on by electrical tape?

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yes! I thought that was a great redneck touch. :-D

[roastchicken.livejournal.com]

LOLOLOL. Thank you so much for the link. This made my day. That dude's got some balls.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Hee! :-D

[bansheeqwn.livejournal.com]

Disturbing...that's all I can say!LOL Anyways, thanks for the link, that belly will stay in my head for the rest of the day I'm sure.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I think it's a sort of Chris Farley tribute, myself! ;-)

[furiosity.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, Emma, and thank you for the LJ giftie! ♥ ♥ ♥

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! I hope it was a good one!

[sulky-rhino.livejournal.com]

O_O That's disturbing. And he didn't even sing to the lyrics, he was just opening his mouth, pfft.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I think he figured people wouldn't be looking at his lips that much. ;-)

[nattybear.livejournal.com]

LMAO, thanks so much for that. That is just what I needed. :D

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

:-D

[loony-moony.livejournal.com]

Even though the guy in the blond wig was absolutely...uh...amusing, it's the whiteboy in the box yelling "Shakira! Shakira!" who had me doing a kegel.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Doing a kegel! I have to remember that one!

[loony-moony.livejournal.com]

Totally ripped off amanuensis1. ;D

[twilight-nyx.livejournal.com]

How on earth did you manage to come across that?!

Yeah, that was disturbing, and I'm not sure WHY anyone would do something like that for a Spanish final. x.x

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

It was on my Google start page, actually!

I'm really curious about what grade he got for it, considering the small amount of actual Spanish content. :-P

[yarnguy716.livejournal.com]

Being pretty familiar with drag and lip sync, I found the video as disturbing as it was funny. The duct taped towel around the waist was a lovely touch. Tho you would think they would attempt to learn the words to the song first, or at least Watermelon, Cantaloupe it

All I can say is... my hips don't lie... Shakira, Shakira....

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Yes, the duct tape gave it such a lovely redneck panache, you know? ;-)
