"Gorgeous, gracious and absolutely heartwarming Shakira. [She] was so nice to the kids. We are [her] fans for life," tweeted Shahrukh.

Shakira has now spoken about the details of the Tour Of Earthly Delights, revealing she has teamed up with theatre director Felix Barrett. Felix is famed for letting audiences decide how they want a production to unfold, which is how Shakira’s shows will work.

“It is important to make the audience the most important aspect of theatre. They should have much more power than they have ever experienced before,” he told British newspaper The Daily Star.
