Numbers don’t lie! Shakira was crowned the most liked celebrity on Facebook, coming with a colossal 86.6 million thumbs up. This may surprise some, but Shakira’s massive Latin fan base serves as the anchor. On top of her mainstream success as a judge on NBC’s hit “The Voice,” major endorsement deals and contagious hits, she’s a household name in America. Ever the musician with a big heart, the Colombian superstar says she is humbled by the social media crown. She shared in a statement:
“I always wanted to have a lot of friends but never imagined it would be so many … 86m! So humbled, can’t thank you guys enough for your support. I feel so fortunate to have you. Giant kiss!”
The honor couldn’t come at a better time. Shakira’s latest album, the self-titled Shakira., dropped yesterday. The latest single, “Empire” is already proving to be a stadium smash. She just celebrated her album release at the iHeartRadio Theater in LA with DJ Prostyle.
