Can’t get enough of Shakira’s shaking hips on videos? You might be getting a chance to the Colombian superstar for a lot longer than the standard three minutes. It seems that Shakira has decided to embark on a new endeavor completely outside of music, in a new movie by famed director Mike Nichols:

That’s according to press in Los Angeles, where the Daily News reports on Shakira’s desire to work with Mike Nichols in [the movie]“Hips Don’t Lie”.

In the same report, Shakira debunks rumors that her first experience in front of the camera will be under the orders of Meixcan director Alfonso Arau in his upcoming bio-pic of legendary Carlos Gardel “El día que me quieras” (“Dare to Love Me”), as had been announced previously.

According to Spain’s 20 Minutos, Shakira is in talks with Nichols now, and had planned to start working with him earlier but couldn’t, due to her heavy (120 concert) tour schedule.

Shaki previously said that she wouldn’t be doing any acting, and that she would be taking a sabbatical. What happened to that?
