“Everybody knows Shakira is a success at crossing over. Nobody knew the hip-thrusting Colombian songstress would be so good at crossing back.

Shakira was already a major star in Latin America in 2001 when she became a pop sensation in the United States with her first English-language album, the multiplatinum “Laundry Service.” And her dominance at last week’s Latin Grammy Awards in Manhattan — where she won four awards, including best song, record and album — confirms that she hasn’t lost any ground in the Spanish-language market, either. It’s a remarkable achievement, considering that her crossover predecessors — Ricky Martin, for example — struggled when they tried to return to their original fan base.”
