Watch the music video for "She-Wolf" by Shakira so that I could watch the fan-created "He-Wolf", of which I stumbled upon.
And by stumble upon I mean, I saw that Steven had sent it to a friend on facebook.
As funny and amazing as the "He-Wolf" video is, the original is kind of funny as well. But not intentionally so.
It's become clear to me (after watching this one video and just remembering hearing about who Shakira was in the first place... all that stuff about her hips and that they just can't tell a lie or else they grow outwards. Can you image how wide someone's hips would be if that were true?) that Shakira loves to show off her flexibility. She's in this cage thing in which she twists and turns and pretezels and rolls and hangs and vaults and other weird stuff. Maybe she's like a circus freak? At a circus in the cage? Because she has weird 'venues' in which her character appears. Except for the "club" scene. That's standard.
No, but seriously. The first 'scene' in which she is dancing looked like inside my ear. The ear canal. Or like.... she was somewhere inside some intestines?? I was watching it on youtube so the quality may have been bad but still... And also the fact that in "He-Wolf" they hang plastic on their walls to get that effect is perfect. Because it really did look like the inside of someone's ear. No really. That's all I could think about. "What is the meaning of this scene? What exactly is the metaphor?"
She also likes to show off the fact that she used to belly dance. She does the wave-thingy with her belly and then does some other... interpretive dance moves...
My FAVORITE 'scene' is when she's on top of the roof. I thought AW CUTE she's paying homage to Mary Poppins! Like that chimney sweep scene! And then she even does a weird dance like they did... ok it's a stretch. That's what I thought of.
But who gives a shit? She's still hot!
Annnnnnd I devoted an entire thing to Shakira.
Maybe I'll do a movie tomorrow night...
