Shakira is in No Rush to Marry
11/13/2007
Colombian pop superstar Shakira has yet to start planning for her wedding to fiance Antonio De La Rua - because she's "too busy".
The 30-year-old - who announced her engagement to the son of former Argentinean president Fernando de la Rua in March 2001 - admits her nuptials have been put on hold as a result of her packed work schedule.
She tells PeopleEnEspanol.com, "I don't have time, but we're patient. We'll get married eventually, or we won't, but we're together and that's what matters."
"We love each other and we want to stay like that. Why fix something that's not broken?"
Shakira, who performed at the premiere of new film Love in the Time of Cholera in Las Vegas recently, added to a magazine: “Love is my primary nourishment. I think that nothing else in life, not even your career or music — well, what I’m saying is a bold statement — I think that nothing can substitute love as the propelling force of everyone’s lives.
It’s number one on my list of priorities, of course.” Shakira wrote three songs for Love in the Time of Cholera. The movie, which tells the story of a 50-year love triangle during the late 19th century, is based on the novel by Columbian writer Gabriel García Márquez.
Her performance raised money for her Fundación Pies Descalzos (Bare Feet Foundation), which promotes educational development in Colombia.
