Shakira has revealed that she was flattered by Taylor Swift's recent impersonation of her on Saturday Night Live.

Swift hosted the comedy show in November. During a sketch, she impersonated Shakira singing a parody version of 'Hips Don’t Lie' for a faux-infomercial.

"I found it very funny. She is very sweet and very talented. She's got the full package," Shakira told Popeater.

She added: "It's good to know she has a sense of humour as well."

The Colombian-born singer will reportedly embark on a tour in 2010.
