Why shouldn't Meat sing a duet with Shakira? It doesn't mean, that Meat is becoming trendy. Did you ever hear an album of Shakira? She did a lot of albums. "Laundry Service" is her seventh! Since 1994, she has released six albums before her current one. I've heard so many songs of her and I think she's a talented singer and composer. All of her songs are self-made. Most of the people only know Shakira from this year on. But there are so much more stuff, that doesn't sound like mainstream music. Lots of her songs are great ballads, rock'n'roll pieces or songs with very demanding lyrics. In her homeland Colombia, she also sang songs about the political system and about the poverty in Colombia. Just because Meat Loaf is doing a duet with Shakira, it don't means that he will become a trendy "mainstreamer". They suit each other, more than you believe.
