Pitbull won't be returning to close FIFA's World Cup ceremony. Instead, it will be up to Shakira to help the event redeem some dignity after he appeared in those god-awful pants.

Organizers unveiled the ceremony's entertainment on Thursday, tapping Shakira, Santana and Wyclef, and Brazilian stars Carlinhos Brown, Alexandre Pires and Ivete Sangaloto, to perform.

This will be Shakira's third consecutive appearance at the World Cup since 2006. She will perform "La La La Brazil 2014" with Brown.

Santana, Wyclef and Pires will take on "Dar Um Jeito (We Will Find a Way)," which is this year's World Cup anthem. Sangaloto and Pires will add homegrown zest with a medley of Brazilian songs.
