Zhang Ziyi First movie in English:
     In 2001, Zhang had a small part in an American
film (Rush Hour 2) with Jackie Chan. The role was
difficult because she didn't speak English. Chan had
to translate everything from Chinese into English for
her.
How she learned English:
     After Rush Hour 2, Zhang studied English in
New York City. She also watched television and
listened to music in English. She liked watching TV
advertisements since the actors spoke slowly and
clearly.
Biggest challenge:
     Playing the leading role in the film Memoirs
of a Geisha. A friend told Zhang. "It will be
difficult to express your feelings in English." This
made Zhang nervous, but she took the part and
studied harder. As a result, her role in the movie
was a big hit.

Shakira First album in English:
     Laundry Service
How she learned English:
     Many people wanted to translate Shakira's songs from
Spanish into English. Shakira agreed, but she felt nervous
about losing control of her music. So she decided to
write her own songs in English. Shakira studied grammar
and common expressions. She also wanted to know how
people use English to express their feelings. So she also
listened to the radio, read newspapers and poems.

     Writing her first songs in English. Sometimes,
finding the right words was difficult. Today, Shakira
writes and performs her music in Spanish and English
for fans around the world.
