Automatic translation. Read the Russian original
Despite the lack of a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Colombian superstar Shakira quickly regained public attention, becoming the main headliner of large-scale concerts on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro. Last Sunday, after Madonna and Lady Gaga, she led a series of shows. Rio’s new mayor estimates that the show attracted about two million viewers, slightly less than the Lady Gaga show (2.1 million), but significantly more than the Madonna concert (1.6 million). Three hours of music included not only hits such as "Hips Don't Lie" and "Whenever, Wherever", but also new tracks such as "Choka Choka" with Anita and "TQG". Brazilian music legends Caetana Veloso and Maria Betania also took part in the show, which created a unique atmosphere. Fragments of the concert are already available for viewing.
