Shakira was attacked by a sea lion (which always looked pretty friendly to us!) while on vacation in South Africa!
.
The “Hips Don’t Lie” singer was climbing down onto a huge rock at the water’s edge to take a photo of the sea lion with her cell phone. Mistaking her cell phone for a fish, the sea lion jumped out of the water and lunged at the star!

Luckily, family was close by to come to her aid!
.
“My brother ‘Super Tony’ jumped over me and literally saved my life. Taking me away from the beast,” she says.
.
Interestingly, Shakira had not long before been complaining that she hadn’t been seeing much wildlife while on her trip!
.
“It’s funny that only half an hour before I was complaining to my guide Andrew that I never get to see wild animals up close on adventurous trips,” Shakira wrote in her Facebook post. “Oh well, I can’t say that anymore!! Now I’m off to see some penguins! I hope they are a bit more friendly!”
.
We do, too! And we’re glad you’re okay, Shakira!
