Sea Lion Attacks Shakira

We understand.

Fed up with the commercialization of the music industry, a sea lion has reportedly attacked Colombian pop sensation Shakira. According to her Facebook page, the singer was trying to take a photograph of herself with some animals in Cape Town, South Africa, when a sea lion mistook her Blackberry for a fish. Unimpressed by the "baby voices" Shakira was using to communicate, it then jumped out of the water and roared at the immobile pop star before attempting to bite her. Shakira, most recently famous for singing "Waka Waka," said a baboon also jumped onto her car the next day. We guess the naysayers who said her songs were for sheep were only slightly off the mark.
