Shakira owes her sexy figure to chocolates

Washington (ANI): Colombian singer Shakira says she owes her sexy figure to chocolate. The 'Hips Don"t Lie" hitmaker admits she treats herself with chocolate to take a break from her rigorous diet and exercise regime. “I think it is important that you are in balance. I really like to eat, I love chocolate and all kinds of sweets. I'm absolutely addicted to it," Contactmusic quoted her as telling German newspaper Bild.

Shakira, 32, also revealed she is constantly changing as a person and if her new album 'She Wolf'' seems to be focused on sex it''s because she is a more sexual person than she was in her 20s. "I think that''s how life works: You''re changing and you''re constantly looking for an improved version of yourself. In my life there is one fixed constant - the connection between my music and soul. My performances are always an expression of how I feel," she said.

“If I appear at the moment more sensual than before it is because this aspect plays a greater role in my life than a decade ago. I''m a woman and I think that this femininity is reflected in my new album," she added.
