Shakira's a true entertainer and performer in this clip of the Shakira [FIFA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/official-sponsor-of-fifa) World Cup performance in Soweto, South Africa. Click on the featured links to watch her high-energy performance of her song 'Waka Waka (This Time for Africa),' which is the South Africa 2010 World Cup official song.

The sultry Latino singer shook her booty in a head-to-toe zebra body suit and a grass-like hula skirt. What I liked about the performance, is that you can tell she's genuinely enjoying herself.
