Alicia Keys एंड शकीरा Help Kick-Off World Cup 2010

World-famous musicians Shakira, John Legend and The Black Eyed Peas are among the performers for a concert that will kick-off the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

A star-studded line-up, also including Alicia Keys and Angelique Kidjo, has been put together at the newly-renovated Orlando Stadium on June 10, with the tournament itself starting two days later."We are thrilled to have a concert of such magnitude and performing talent raise the curtain on the first FIFA World Cup in Africa," said FIFA Secretary General Jerome Valcke.

"It is testament to the universal and unifying power of football and music, and will start the competition off on the right note – of celebration."
