* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: The [[http://www.allmusic.com/album/el-dorado-mw0003047940 Allmusic review]] of ''El Dorado'' states (or heavily implies) that the song "Comme moi" is in Spanish. It's actually a French song - as the ''title'' might suggest, but even assuming the reviewer doesn't know basic French and can't tell it apart from Spanish, Shakira's parts on the song are all in ''English''. It also refers to her past collaborator {{Music/Rihanna}} as an American celebrity - she's from [[UsefulNotes/TheCaribbean Barbados]], has Barbadian citizenship and has displayed her heritage multiple times in her music. While it's true that she is a major celebrity in the US, she's also famous worldwide, including in Barbados! The review concludes by stating that "only thing absent from [the album] is a bit of arena rock" - and there is less rock music on the album compared to her previous works, but when the ''second track'' on the album, "Nada", is a rock ballad, you have to question if the reviewer even listened to the album...
* CreatorBacklash: There's a good reason why her actual first two albums are under CanonDiscontinuity.

There's a good reason why her actual first two albums albums, ''Magia'' and ''Peligro'', are under CanonDiscontinuity.CanonDiscontinuity. They were critical and commercial disappointments, and Shakira later stated that she had virtually no creative control over them.
** When she was only 17, she played the female lead in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkyuuFu55qI El Oasis]]'', a Colombian telenovela based on Romeo and Juliet. She's really not proud of this - she tried to stop people from seeing it by ''[[https://es-us.noticias.yahoo.com/shakira-compra-video-averg%C3%BCenza-20110418-062500-393.html buying the rights to the show]]'' to keep it out of circulation.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In around 1999, she was planning to do an English language version of her 1998 album ''Dónde Están los Ladrones?'' and performed an English version of "Inevitable" as a teaser for the album with an English version of "Ojos Asi" recorded as "Eyes Like Yours" along with "Estoy Aqui", from her true debut album ''Pies Descalzos'', recorded as "I'm Here". However, it was eventually retooled into ''Laundry Service'' with most of the English language version from her 1998 album (excluding "Eyes Like Yours") scrapped and replaced by newly written songs. The idea for a two-part album with one album being Spanish and another being English wouldn't happen until ''Oral Fixation''.

However, she already recorded two Spanish songs for an intended Spanish album, these being "Que Me Quedes Tu" and "Te Dejo Madrid", and they were included as-is. Spanish versions of "Objection" and "Whenever Wherever" were include on most versions of the album, but the songs were first written in English and translated. The idea for a two-part album with one album being Spanish and another being English wouldn't happen until ''Oral Fixation''.
