A simple and brief opening ceremony was held on the dawn of
the 2014 FIFA World Cup at Brazil's Arena Corinthians stadium on Thursday.
The inauguration of the global football celebration
contained connotations to the country's rainforest environment along with their
national passion for both samba and football.
Popstar Jennifer Lopez, rapper Pitbull and Brazilian
songstress Claudia Leitte performed the official World Cup song "We Are
One (Ole Ola)" to the delight of the over 60,000 adoring spectators.
