Shakira: 'My hips test my music'
Shakira has revealed that she relies on her hips to test out planned music releases.

The 32-year-old singer claimed that she is only confident about her songs if they provoke a natural response from her body in the recording studio.

"I'm not a trained dancer. I did a little bit of gymnastics when I was 12 - everything else it's just me feeling the music," WENN quotes her as saying.

"But I do have an unorthodox way to approve my music or test it. When I'm in the studio and I'm producing my own music, I've got to make sure I connect to it at a physical level.

"My body has to move and my hips have to move and if I don't see that kind of reaction, that physical reaction, then I know that something is not working."

Shakira's new album She Wolf will be released in October.
