Shakira is about to make her animated film debut in Disney’s Zootopia, but she only wanted to lend her voice to the feature if her character had enough curves.
In a new interview with E!, the 39-year-old singer revealed that the original design for her character Gazelle — a pop star based on Shakira — was just too skinny.
“There’s a lot of aspects of her anatomy that needed to look a little more like me,” said Shakira. “That’s when I suggested to them to give her a little more meat, because she was a bit too skinny. She was too fit. She needed to be curvier.”
