Speaking on the success of her social media page, Shakira said: "I am honoured and humbled about reaching this milestone, because it’s one that’s purely about connecting with my fans from all parts of the globe.

"Social media and specifically Facebook has helped myself and other artists bridge the gap between the stage and the audience.
"We’ve been able to create a conversation, where both artists and fans can share with one another their thoughts, achievements, the most important moments of their lives in photographs and videos, and have a real, ongoing dialogue."

Also commenting, Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook, wrote on Shakira’s wall, saying: "Congrats! What an amazing milestone for an amazing person."
The songwriter’s full name is Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll and she was born on February 2, 1977.

According to wikipedia, the duo met in spring 2010 when Piqué appeared in the music video for Shakira’s song "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)", the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup hosted in South Africa.
Shakira officially confirmed their relationship on March 29, 2011 via Twitter and Facebook, posting a picture of the two with a caption readin: "I present to you my sunshine." It was the first time she had ever spoken of the relationship after several months of media speculation.
In September 2012, Shakira confirmed that she and Piqué were expecting their first child together.
Shakira gave birth to the couple’s son, Milan Piqué Mebarak, on January 22, 2013 in Barcelona, Spain, where the family resides.

Burning Man Erection Contests Where A mans Erectile resilience (Stiffy) is Tested.

"The first boner to rise gets the prize," says Brad McCray at the start of the event. McCray is a beast of a man who leads the Burning Man theme camp Slut Garden with his wife of 10 years, Tammy. In front of him, five men stand exposed from the waist down with their scantily clad female partners dancing around them, encircled by a cheering, dust-covered crowd of hundreds. Every man is trying to produce an erection as fast as he can without touching himself. Their partners can encourage the sexletes but not by using their hands. This is the Speed Boner challenge, the finale to McCray's fourth annual Slut Olympics. Other events include Deep Throat (a pretty self-explanatory contest that involves a 13-inch dildo), Guess-A-Willy (a blindfolded woman has to identify her partner's penis out of a lineup of naked men), and a Best Balls beauty contest. Speed Boner is still the biggest draw. For seven days, a patch of the Black Rock Desert in Nevada becomes t...

Of the leading Nollywood stars, Yvonne is among those I had not had a close relationship with. I had watched her from afar, seen countless number of her movies and had always thought she was a great and talented actress – someone who combined poise, beauty and style.
