 " Underneath Your Clothes " was released as the second single from the album in May 2002 . The song peaked atop the charts in Australia , Austria , and Belgium ; it was certified platinum in the three countries . In other countries , it became a top five hit . " Underneath Your Clothes " entered the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100 chart , peaking at number nine , while in the United Kingdom it reached number three . The accompanying music video for " Underneath Your Clothes " was directed by Herb Ritts and depicts Shakira 's life on tour . Shakira 's then boyfriend Antonio de la Rua makes an appearance in the video and this led to music retailer Tower Records Argentina banning sales of her albums in the country . The reason behind the ban was that Antonio de la Rua 's father Fernando de la Rúa , who was the President of Argentina at that time , had resigned " in the midst of profound economic and political turmoil in the country , " and the decision to ban sales of Shakira 's albums was a " direct protest against Antonio De la Rua -- not Shakira .
