Colombian pop superstar Shakira pities men - because women are overly complicated and insatiable.

The hip-shaking sexy singer has deep empathy for males, and is convinced the two genders are a completely different species.

She says: "I think it's punishment from God to have put men and women on the same planet. Only for having stolen a simple apple, we received the punishment.

"Women are full of buttons, little buttons, millions of buttons. And men have just the on and off switch. Men need only food and you-know-what. We need so much more. We're like what do you call them? Barrels without bottoms. There's no way to satisfy women. Ever."
