Barcelona may fine Shakira for YouTube video

Barcelona authorities are deciding whether to fine Colombian pop princess Shakira after footage of her dancing with fans in a fountain and riding a motorbike without a helmet in the Spanish city was posted on YouTube.

The incidents occurred while the Colombian singer was filming the videoclip for “Loca,” which will be first single of her next album “Sale el sol,” due to be released November 2.

According to Barcelona authorities, Shakira “did not even ask for permission to film” and “does not lead by example,” despite being “a public person.” Authorities said that if permission is sought, “you can take this kind of footage without problems.”

Authorities said they will analyze footage that fans posted on You Tube “to detect infringements that have been committed during the recording.”
