IDENTIFY THE FIVE (5) MISTAKES IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH AND CORRECT THEM Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll was born on February 2, 1977 in the northern Columbian town of a Catalan and Italian mother and an American father of Lebanese descent. Shakira began her musical career at the tender age of 8 when she wrote her first heart-wrenching song "Tus GafasOscuras" in memory of her brother who has lost his life in a car accident. At 10 years of age, Shakira applied to be in the school of choir, but she was turned off on the grounds that her voice was too strong and sounded like the bleating of a goat. Instead of giving up, Shakira kept her focus on music and participated in a televised singing competition for children, after which she started being invited to various events in Barranquilla and became a local celebrity. When she turned 13, she caught the eye of theatre production Monica Ariza, who took her under her wing and made her name known outside Barranquilla. On a flight from her hometown to the Columbian capital of Bogota, Ariza happened to sit next to Sony executive Ciro Vargas, that agreed to hold an audution for Shakira a few weeks later inside a hotel lobby. Vargas was utter impressed with the budding new artist and praised her in lavish term to the Sony artist directors.
