I know you've all been breathlessly waiting for the announcement of the World Cup kickoff concert in Johannesburg and ladies and gentleman, the news is finally here .
Alicia Keys, the Black Eyed Peas and Shakira are the artists you've heard of while the concert also will feature a strong African presence with South African folk singer Vusi Mahlasela and Malian artists Amadou and Mariam.
South African rock bands BLK JKS and The Parlotones also will perform as the country prepares to be the first African host in the 80-year history of the tournament.
The event takes place June 10, the day before the first match kicks off. And if you're wondering, basically the only reason I mentioned this is because Shakira is in my current Top-5, just a complete dime, and this allowed me to post a picture of my favorite Colombian.
