Shakira Is Harvard Foundation�s Artiste Of The Year

And the award goes to...

While the spotlight may be on the likes of Justin Bieber, Lady Antebellum and Eminem during this awards season so far, Shakira is receiving the spotlight from Harvard instead.

Shakira has been named the 2011 Artiste of the Year by the Harvard Foundation. This award comes in recognition of the Colombian singer�s contribution through her music as well as humanitarian efforts.

�Her contributions to music and distinguished history of creativity have been applauded by people throughout the world, and she is greatly admired worldwide for her humanitarian efforts through her Barefoot Foundation,� said the foundation�s director S. Allen Counter.

In previous years, Will Smith, Matt Damon and Salma Hayek had also been honoured with this prestigious award.
