Shakirah Bourne: Hi, my name is Shakirah Bourne. Shakirah, as in the Colombian singer, except my name has a silent H at the end. People forget that silent H all of the time, even on official documents. My last name, Bourne, pronounced and spelled the same way as Jason Bourne from the Bourne Identity movie, is a common name in Barbados, where I'm from.
