SHAKIRA'S HIT "HIPS DON'T LIE" FEATURING WYCLEF
IS THE MOST PLAYED SONG IN THE HISTORY OF RADIO

"Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira featuring Wyclef Jean made history this week as the most played song in pop radio history according to Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems. The song was played more times in one week beating out the previous record by Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" made in the week ending 6/5/05. Shakira's song's total of 9,657 times played on the radio, broke Stefani's previous record of 9,582. This is the song's 4th week atop the coveted chart. Shakira also recently became the first artist in the history of the charts to earn the coveted #1 Top 40 Mainstream song and #1 Latin song in the same week and still holds the #1 spot on the Latin chart.

Shakira's "Oral Fixation" tour has exploded out of the gates, selling out multiple markets in the first few hours on sale. Shakira is on her way to her fastest selling tour ever and one of the best selling tours of the summer. Wyclef Jean will open for the 27-date arena tour, which kicks off on August 9th.

Her latest work, Oral Fixation Vol. 2 debuted on the charts at #4, the third Top Five debut in Shakira's
career, which after the stunning debut earlier in the year of Fijacion Oral Volume 1, made her the only artist ever to debut in the top 5 albums in English and Spanish in the same calendar year. Energized by her #1 hit "Hips Don't Lie," Oral Fixation Vol. 2 remains high on the album charts for the last 26 weeks and has already sold well over 1 Million copies in the United States alone.

I also like Hips Don't Lie. It's very catchy, but I like the orignal better (Dance Like This).
