Grammy-winning musician Shakira took the stage in England on Monday – but not to sing. In a speech at Oxford University, she put out a call for universal access to education as a tool for world peace. "That is how I want the youth of 2060 to see us: That our mission for global peace consisted of sending 30,000 educators to Afghanistan, not 30,000 soldiers," said Shakira, who was invited by the Oxford Student Union. "That in 2010, world education became more important than world domination."

FIRST LOOK: Shakira's Video for 'Give It Up To Me'

Originally posted 11/13/2009 05:30PM


In a new video for her single "Give It Up to Me," Latin songstress Shakira trades her signature hip-shaking for a hip-hop vibe. Applying Jamaican dancehall footwork, traditional Thai dancing and a technique called "stepping," which mixes the footsteps and handclaps of African American fraternity and sorority culture, the "She Wolf" singer turns up the heat again.

She's even called on hip-hop honcho Timbaland to produce the song and rapper Lil Wayne to make a guest appearance.

Check out Shakria's Facebook page on Monday (3 p.m. EST) to see the full video for "Give It Up to Me" from her upcoming album She Wolf, out Nov. 23. – Jessica Herndon
