A Shakira fan forked over US$3,000 (€2,060) to buy a bra once worn by the Colombian singer, while another paid US$14,000 (€9,630) for front-row seats and the privilege of meeting the hip-shaking star.The two bids were among the highest on 40 items Shakira donated to an Internet auction that has raised US$76,000 (€52,280) for her Bare Feet Foundation, which is building a school for poor children in northern Colombia.
"We had bidders from 10 countries," Eric Gazin, president of the firm Auction Cause which hosted the sale, told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
Another popular item was a shiny lavender skirt with turquoise and coral beading that Shakira wore while singing "Hips Don't Lie," during her "Oral Fixation" tour. The skirt fetched more than US$1,000 (€690).
Still up for grabs until Sunday are an electric Fender guitar and an acoustic Taylor guitar, both bearing Shakira's autograph.
