Shakira became the first person ever who got 100 million likes
on Facebook. On July 18, she posted two videos to express her
gratitude to her fans who helped her reach the amazing milestone.
She said in a
statement about her amazing milestone, "I am honored and humbled about
reaching this milestone. Social media and specifically Facebook has
helped
myself and other artists bridge the gap between the stage and the
audience."
Meanwhile, Mark
Zuckerberg, CEO and founder of Facebook, wrote a comment on the "Waka Waka
(This Time for Africa)" singer's page, "Congrats! What an amazing
milestone for an amazing person."
In the first video,
Shakira thanked her fans who helped her reach the amazing milestone, saying,
"That is incredible. Thank
you so much for your support,
for your loyalty, for your love. It's really unbelievable. Thank
you so
much." The Grammy-winning Colombian singer captioned the video with,
"100 million friends on Facebook! That is incredible! Shak."
Shakira shared on
the second video a photo collection, including some of her greatest moments
since joining the social media site. She also added a
handwritten letter to thank her fans in the video. The handwritten letter read,
"100 million friends on Facebook! Thank you so much for joining me and propelling me on this
incredible journey. I couldn't do it with you all!"
Back in March,
Shakira was named the most-liked musician on Facebook with 86.3 million likes.
At that time, she narrowly beat out Rihanna who got 86.2 million likes.
