Monday, May 01, 2006
Shakira is getting ready for her "Oral Fixation" world tour - and she's taking Wyclef Jean with her for all 23 U.S. shows.
"I feel honored he's gonna do this with me," the 29-year-old Colombian pop star said at a press conference Friday, one day after winning six Billboard Latin Music Awards.
"I admire him so much! He's a great artist and will be a big asset for the show," she said.
The world tour will begin June 22 in Madrid, Spain, and will travel in October to Latin America, where the crossover star will sing mostly in Spanish.
The U.S. leg of the tour will open Aug. 9 in El Paso, Texas, and will include performances in New York, Miami and Los Angeles.
During the U.S. tour, Verizon Wireless subscribers will be able to use their cell phones to receive video clips and vote for their favorite songs.
"It's gonna be really exciting to see my fans interact," she said. "They'll get videos, messages from me, it's interesting."
Shakira will sing her best-known songs in both Spanish and English for her U.S. audiences.
