Colombian pop diva Shakira denies having given an autographed guitar to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez as claimed by his Minister of Information.
According to newspaper El Nuevo Herald, the singer’s representatives explained that she gave the red guitar to the organizers of her concert in Caracas in March, but never meant it to be a present for Chavez.
