Shakira, Shakira! 

Though she's been recording in her native Spanish since the early '90s, today Shakira is one of the most recognizable Latin crossover success stories of the modern music era. And she's got the trophies to prove it: The Colombian pop powerhouse has 13 Latin GRAMMYs and three GRAMMYs to her name. 

Shakira Wins At The First Latin GRAMMY Awards

In the year 2000, at the first-ever Latin GRAMMY Awards, she pulled in a golden gramophone for her late '90s single "Ojos AsÍ" ("Eyes Like That"). Walking onto the stage to accept her award, Shakira dedicated her win to her home country. "I want to dedicate this award to that country that is going through a difficult time right now but never never forget how to smile. For you, Columbia," she said.

Nicknamed "El Ídolo of Mexico" ("The Idol of Mexico"), Fernandez lives up to his title as he dedicates his entire acceptance speech to thanking Mexico and all of Latin America.

Watch Vicente Fernandez Win Person Of The Year

With 13 GRAMMY nominations, three GRAMMY wins, and eight Latin GRAMMY wins, the singer has his fair share of acceptance speeches under his belt. Still, his commitment to sharing the honor with his homeland makes this episode of GRAMMY Rewind hard to top.
