More "rond" than RAJON RONDO is SHAKIRA:
"Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll (play /ʃəˈkɪərə/,[2] Spanish: [t͡ʃaˈkiɾa]; born February 2, 1977),[3] known professionally as Shakira, is a Colombian singer-songwriter who emerged in the music scene of Colombia and Latin America in the early 1990s. Born and raised in Barranquilla, Colombia, Shakira began performing in school, demonstrating her vocal ability with rock and rollLatin and Arabic influences with her own original twist on belly dancing. Shakira is a native Spanish speaker and also speaks fluent English and Portuguese as well as some Italian, French, Catalan and Arabic.[4] [5]"
