Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 is a Latin pop album, the sixth studio album by Colombian recording artist Shakira (pictured). It followed her first English-language record, Laundry Service, an international success. It received generally favorable reviews that complimented Shakira's evolving style. Released in June 2005, it debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200, and topped the charts in Argentina, Germany, Mexico and Spain. Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 was the Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album at the 2006 Grammy Awards, and the Album of the Year and the Best Female Pop Vocal Album at the Latin Grammy Awards. It became the highest selling Latin pop album of the decade in the US. Four singles were released to promote the album, although only the lead single ("La Tortura") reached the US Billboard Hot 100. In November 2005 Shakira supplemented the album with her second English-language record, Oral Fixation, Vol. 2. The two were packaged together and promoted with the Oral Fixation Tour.
