Shakira has said it was “a privilege” to meet Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden at the White House. Shakira, who founded a charity advocating early development programmes and is an activist for childrens' rights, met in the Oval Office to discuss America’s education policy. "We agreed that investing in our children is the smartest strategy governments can use to boost economic growth, fight poverty, and promote global security and peace," Shakira said in a statement. "We will be working closely with the President and his staff to implement his vision - for Latinos, children in the United States, and around the world."
