Hips Don't Lie... Part 2

So in my last post I started talking about the Shakira concert and as I said the opening act was Train and that part was very cool. Well, about one hour after they were done singing (that’s how long it took the stage crew and security to prepare) Shakira finally started. The first place we saw her was walking in front of the stage in a pink dress, the dress was beautiful, but it wasn’t exactly what I was expecting her to wear. And soon enough she got on stage and opened the dress to reveal a skirt and top that seemed to fit with the songs she was going to sing. At that point all the fans had broken pretty much all the rules the security guards had tried to put on, everyone was standing on the chairs, getting out of their places to get close, and the aisles were crowded. It turns out that Shakira didn’t only sing songs from her new album; in fact most of her songs were past hits that are still sometimes heard on radio stations. There were two things that weren’t unexpected, but still it was surprising to see live, one thing was her dancing. Somehow she managed to sing wonderfully and dance at the same time. The second thing I noticed is that she’s really pretty, even live. Most celebrities get their pictures edited to remove unwanted things before their pictures are put anywhere, but with Shakira it seems to be different. She looked exactly like we see her in magazines.
This is one of the pictures I took at the concert

I was amazed with the show overall, there was a great atmosphere the whole time and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves even the singers.
