Shakira, the Colombian singer, will sing on Wednesday at the Guiza Pyramids on her first concert in Egypt, in her world tour to present her record Fijacion Oral II.

The “barefoot” singer who arrived the day before to El Cairo airport expressed her happiness because she has wished to sing in Egypt since she was a child, the local newspaper Al Ahram published.

Shakira said she hopes to gain “the trust and love of the Egyptians, a country that appreciates art and music”, the newspaper added.

The first Shakira concert in the African country is sponsored by the Egyptian company Mobinil, leader in mobile telephony, to celebrate its ten millionth subscriber.
