Pop star Shakira's son has taught her to simplify.
The 37-year-old singer, who has 15-month-old Milan with partner Gerard Pique, said the little boy's need for her attention mean she has had to be more focused in her work so that she has more free time to be with him, reported Contactmusic.
"Well I think he's taught me, in general, he's taught me how to simplify because he requires me most of the time. So I have to kind of learn how to be a little more direct with my own work, with the way I tackle my work," she said.
Shakira said she and Pique are so similar.
"We're very much alike. We're so similar. Our personalities are so similar we don't understand how we get along so well, being so similar. We're so compatible. We want the same things, we like the same things, we hate the same things. We're so passionate the same way, we need passion the same way.
