MEXICO CITY, March 18 (EL UNIVERSAL).- Shakira has become the female artist with the most Guinness records in the world. She is the owner of 21 recognitions of this type that she has managed to reap throughout her career. However, it was with her song together with the Argentine producer Bizarrap that she came to surpass herself.
It’s just that for her song “Music Sessions #53”, Shakira was left with 4 Guinness records. With this recognition, the Colombian went down in history. “Although I wrote the song for myself, I feel that it was intended for many women who needed a forum and a voice to represent them,” the Colombian said on the Jimmy Fallon show.
It was there that Shakira received the 4 recognitions achieved in the Guinness Book of Records. “Most played Latin song on YouTube in 24 hours, with 63 million views; fastest Latin song to reach 100 million views on YouTube; most played Latin song on Spotify in 24 hours, with 14.93 million views and song most streamed Latina on Spotify in a week, with 80.6 million streams”, were the awards it won.
Who is the singer that Shakira surpassed?
Before Shakira, it was Madonna who was occupying this podium. With more than 35 years of career, the singer had been occupying the place now taken by the Colombian with 20 mentions in the Guinness Record Book.
Among the multiple recognitions, the entity had awarded Madonna for having the most tweeted song, being the most winner in the history of the MTV Video Music Awards, having the song with the most entries to number one in the world, having the largest number of costume changes in a movie, recording the most expensive music video, having the best-selling album in history by a woman, among others.
