SHAKIRA SHUNS 'PATHOLOGICAL' OBSESSION WITH BEAUTY

Latin singer SHAKIRA fired her five-person ''glam-squad'', after deciding she had become too obsessed with her appearance.

The Colombian singer once never went travelling without her beauty entourage, but felt that she was helping to promote unrealistic body images.

She says the female beauty craze has become "pathological," adding, "(It's) some kind of obsessive compulsion with becoming the perfect woman - not a 10, but an 11.

"It's about matching these images that pop culture puts in front of you.

"I feel like sometimes I've been both a victim of that and a victimiser, and it's not a good feeling, let me tell you."
