Shakira is in no rush to marry

The ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ singer, who has been engaged to Argentine lawyer Antonio de la Rua for around six years, is madly in love and happy with her relationship just the way it is.

Shakira said: “We’ll get married eventually, or we won’t, but we’re together and that’s what matters. We love each other and we want to stay like that. Why fix something that’s not broken?” The 30-year-old Columbian star says her fiancé is her first priority, and she will always put love before her career.

Shakira, who performed at the premiere of new film Love in the Time of Cholera in Las Vegas recently, added to a magazine: “Love is my primary nourishment. I think that nothing else in life, not even your career or music — well, what I’m saying is a bold statement — I think that nothing can substitute love as the propelling force of everyone’s lives.

It’s number one on my list of priorities, of course.” Shakira wrote three songs for Love in the Time of Cholera. The movie, which tells the story of a 50-year love triangle during the late 19th century, is based on the novel by Columbian writer Gabriel García Márquez.

Her performance raised money for her Fundación Pies Descalzos (Bare Feet Foundation), which promotes educational development in Colombia.
