[edit] WRONG ALBUM SALES

the other day i was reading the shakira's wikipedia info and i have to say this info is a little bit wrong. First Shakira has not sold 70 million albums?? she has sold around 35-38 million albums to date according to the United world chart.

her studio albums sales are according with certifications and united world chart:

Pies Descalzos 1.5 - 2.0 million (sold) Donde Estan Los Ladrones 3 million Laundry Service 12 - 13 million Fijacion Oral Vol.1 4 million Oral Fixation Vol.2 4.5 - 4.7 million She Wolf 1 - 1.5 million Sale el Sol 2 million

i hope you analize this facts. In order to improve this page.

thanks!

Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed.--Ankit Maity^Talk_Contribs 11:43, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] This sentence does not make sense. Please fix it.

2009–11: She Wolf and Sale el Sol

... The touring group also doubles as a record label which promotes but does control the music their artists release. ...

"Which promotes but does control" ? This should probably either be "which promotes but does not control" or "which promotoes and also controls". As I have no knowledge of the subject at hand, I cannot fix the article. Please find out what is the nature of this company's relation to Shakira and her music and fix the article accordingly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Romancer (talk • contribs) 20:12, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
