"Waka Waka" singer Shakira was a star at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, but she could not outshine Cristiano Ronaldo, or Paul the Octopus in terms of Twitter trends.

A Bit on Shakira

Shakira is normally known for her dancing, original music, and for what many describe as her "outstanding beauty." She was selected to join the group of singers praising the spirit of Africa prior to the World Cup, and after winning against K'naan's Waving Flag, her song "Waka Waka" became the official song of the tournament.
