NEW YORK (AP) — Shakira revealed Wednesday that she is, in fact, expecting. But it’s not what you may think.
“I’m quite pregnant with my album,” the Colombian pop star told a reporter by phone — between laughs — when asked whether her foundation work on behalf of Latin American children has made her want to become a mother.
“Yes, I have plans, but not yet,” said Shakira, 31. “I’m pregnant with my songs. But someday, yes.”
The singer-activist plans to ask about 20 Latin American presidents at a regional summit in El Salvador on Thursday to direct more resources to poor children and to put early childhood development at the top of their agendas. She will appear on behalf of ALAS (Latin America in Solidarity Action) Foundation, a nonprofit coalition she helped create.
Asked whether she plans to write a song about ALAS, translated as “Wings” in Spanish, the Grammy winner and United Nations goodwill ambassador said it’s out of her hands.
Shakira and producers work in the studio on her upcoming album.

Ne-Yo has written several hits for other female artists such as Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, and Rihanna
Last month, a song titled “Forbidden Fruit” leaked on the internet that found R&B singer Ne-Yo with lyrics that weren’t quite commonly sang about from a male point of view. Rumors quickly spread around the internet that the song would be a collaboration with Shakira. Rap-Up.com recently spoke with Ne-Yo to get the truth behind the forbidden fruit.
“I wrote that for [Shakira]. She wound up not taking it. A lot of these songs that wind up on the Internet, people don’t get the back story and then it just sounds weird. You have me singing a song and I’m saying ‘he’ a lot, and nobody makes the assumption that I’m a songwriter and I do write songs for women every now and then. People don’t gather that so then they go, ‘Oh, what is this? What is Ne-Yo doing? Is he trying to tell us something?’ No, I’m not trying to tell you anything. You shouldn’t have downloaded the song, pirates!”
Shakira is, however, currently in the studio working on her brand new album that is predicted for a 2009 release.
