Shakira isn’t seeing red after being poked fun at by country-pop rocker Taylor Swift on last weekend’s Saturday Night Live.

The Colombian with the most famous hips in music celebrated the release of her new album, She Wolf, at a Rolling Stone party in New York Monday and couldn’t stop laughing after Access Hollywood played her the clip of Taylor impersonating the Latin pop tart’s signature moves for SNL’s “Bunny Business” skit.

“That’s crazy,” Shakira said. “I feel flattered. I love Taylor,” the “Hips Don’t Lie” singer added. “I think she’s awesome. She’s beautiful and a great talent and that is just really, really funny.”

Taylor Swift is the host and musical guest on this weekend’s Saturday Night Live — and she hasn’t forgotten the infamous mic-snitching that left her publicly humiliated at the MTV Video Music Awards last summer.

In a promo that began airing Tuesday, the global music sensation and SNL cast member Bill Hader poke fun at the notorious incident and controversial rap star Kanye West. Taylor announces she will be on the sketch show this weekend while Hader stands by her side on the phone. He gets off his cell and says, “Whoops, Kanye West just called. He thinks Beyoncé should host instead.”

Tracy Morgan is bringing his no-holds barred approach to comedy to the pages of a new autobiography. In his tell-all book I Am the New Black, in stores Oct. 20, the Emmy-nominated 30 Rock star fires off at former Saturday Night Live co-stars Chris Kattan and Cheri Oteri.

SNL’s “Dominican Lou” writes: “I had my finger on the pulse of urban comedy, but when I brought my act to SNL, those motherf***** just felt bad for me…..None of the cast I came up with saw this future for me. No, sir. All I have to say about that is, where’s Chris Kattan now? Where’s Cheri Oteri now? That bitch can’t even get arrested.”
