Shakira is No Dummy

Most people expect pop stars to be morons. Former pop tarts like Britney Spears help perpetuate this image of stars that are idiots. However, Shakira is trying to turn all that around, at least for herself. Shakira spent the summer studying Western Civilization at UCLA. The interesting thing is that most of the class, including the professor had no idea who she was. Apparently, she told them that she was from Columbia and was taking the class due to interest and enjoyment.

So what did the professor say of the pop star to the AP? Robert Cleve, the lecturer in the class said, “She looked like just an ordinary student. She wasn’t flamboyant…she didn’t act like a big celebrity or anything. I was really impressed with how intelligent she was.”
