Shakira's Body: 'Asking To Reproduce'

Shakira's Body: 'Asking To Reproduce'

An open-shirted Shakira covers Rolling Stone's new issue. Inside, the 32-year-old singer, whose longtime boyfriend is investment banker Antonio de la Rua, talks about the "physical calling" of motherhood.

"My body feels like it is asking to reproduce, to have a huge belly and carry babies."

Shakira hopes to indulge her body's request if her third English album, "She Wolf," out November 23, makes her a true superstar in the U.S. She tells the magazine about the pressures of being a woman:

"You know, women have to make enormous efforts through life, much larger than men. We deal with so many pressures: the pressure of aesthetics, and how society wants us to deliver our performances as mothers, daughters and wives."
