Shakira gets the wrong man?

Colombian pop sensation ‘she wolf’ Shakira ended up in a February press conference with a World Bank president, Robert Zoellick, to launch her charity’s joint initative with the Bank on early childhood development in Latin America. Perhaps she missed the 2007 sex controversy that ousted the Bank’s previous leader of the pack Paul Wolfowitz? Drafting the Bank into her education-focussed work might also backfire. The Bank’s seeming desire to ‘whenever, wherever’ privatise public services might leave Shakira feeling ‘la tortura’.
