Shakira Dropped Sexy Video Plans For Dizzee

SHAKIRA scrapped plans for a super-sexy video to accompany her upcoming single LOCA - so collaborator DIZZEE RASCAL could feature in the promo.

The rapper wasn’t initially included in the video plans but the Hips Don’t Lie hitmaker told music executives she wanted the Brit to play a part - and so they teamed up for the fun promo filmed in Barcelona, Spain.

A source tells Britain’s Daily Star, “The lyrics of Loca are about Shakira being crazy so she wanted a video that really showed her personality.

“She decided it would look great having Dizzee film her larking around and capturing it all in YouTube-style clips. In some scenes, he points the lens at himself so it’s clear who is recording. It’s a much more natural vibe with Shakira running around causing mayhem in Barcelona.”

The video hit the headlines last month (Aug10) when Spanish authorities slapped Shakira with a fine for dancing in a fountain without obtaining a permit ahead of filming.
