Shakira
London Wembley Arena
18th March, 2007

Taking to the stage to the mystic tones of Eastern-inspired melodies, Shakira kicked off the hundredth show of her tour with the powerful crowd-pleaser Estoy Aqui. She announced, “For tonight, I’m all yours London,” and for 15 songs and 85 minutes, she was. With pitch-perfect vocals throughout and dance routines that ranged from slutty to arty (and back again), a rockier Shakira than of late sang material spanning her career, including faves Don’t Bother, Te Dejo Madrid and La Tortura. A Kate Bush-esque dance routine then led into No and the global hits Whenever, Wherever and Underneath Your Clothes. Ciega Sordomuda got the mochilawearing, bandera-waving Colombian contingent on its feet. before Shakira returned for an encore of the emotion-filled Ojos Asi and Hips Don’t Lie. Chevere!
