Speaking at the Los Angeles premiere of new animation 'Zootopia,' Shakira admitted that she asked the film's directors to make her character “curvier”. When the team of directors and producers told her about the movie, she found it tremendously original, artistic and beautiful. The first drawings of her character endeared her to the role, which was in many ways like her real self. The character was however too slim and fit, so she asked the directors to make her a little bit curvier.
