Shakira was once again the big winner at the Latin Grammys last night.

The singer took home home four trophies at the ceremony, including the prestigious Best Female Vocalist and Album Of The Year. She also performed her new single 'La Tortura' to the Madison Square Garden audience.

"It has been a magical night," she said, before showing her support for immigrants who are fighting for their citizenship. "All they need is a visa for a dream," she continued. "I hope soon they will receive they recognition they deserve from the government".

Ricky Martin also added his views to the issue, as well as defending Madonna over her recent adoption saga: "I know Madonna as a mother, and she's exemplary," he said. "The love she gives her kids is a dream, and I know that her heart is big enough to adopt not just one child but to adopt twenty."
