Shakira crowd-surfed her way to a lifetime achievement prize at the MTV Video Music Awards, as she performed a career-spanning medley of hits.
The Colombian star put on a spectacular show that saw her dance with knives, writhe in a fake cave and play a fiery guitar solo during Objection (Tango).
Presenting her award, Wyclef Jean said: “Latin music would not be the global force that it is without Shakira.”
Taylor Swift was the night’s other big winner, earning nine Moon Man trophies.
