Shakiras apparent response to ex Gerard Pique in recent songs following cheating scandal

Publish date: 2024-06-11

Shakira seems to have taken subtle digs at her ex-partner Gerard Piqué through her music, following allegations of infidelity in their relationship.

The 45-year-old Colombian singer-songwriter seems to have included a jab at Piqué, 35, in her single Te Felicito (I Congratulate You), as highlighted by The Sun.

One of the significant lines in the song is translated as, ‘To make you whole / I broke myself in pieces / I was warned, but I didn’t take heed / Don’t tell me you’re sorry / I know you well and I know you’re lying.’

In an interview with Elle Magazine, Shakira was asked about the line and its apparent connection to her marital issues.

When questioned by Lulu Garcia-Navarro, she responded, ‘I can only say that either consciously or subconsciously, everything I feel, everything I go through is reflected in the lyrics I write, in the videos I make. When the glove fits, it fits. Like I said before, my music is that channel.’

Shakira’s song and the accompanying video feature the Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro, who is currently in a relationship with Rosalía.

In the video, he appears to play both a romantic interest to Shakira and a robotic clone of the same person, which Shakira tinkers away at until it comes to life.

Recently, Shakira was seen filming a video for her single Monotonia, which also appeared to critique her relationship with Piqué.

The pop star was visibly carrying a fake heart in her hand, presumably to symbolize her heartbreak. She also had a black circle over her chest, likely meant to be replaced later with computer-generated imagery of a hole in her chest.

The timing implies it was related to Shakira’s split from Piqué, as he was seen only days earlier making his debut with his PR student girlfriend Clara Chia Marti, 23.

Last month, images surfaced of Piqué passionately kissing his new love interest in a video taken by Spanish media outlet Socialite at the Summerfest Cerdanya festival in Catalonia.

The former couple announced their split back in June, despite reports that Shakira did not want the relationship to end at the time.

According to Spanish newspaper El Periodico, Shakira and Gerard are attempting to remain friends for the sake of their children—sons Milan, nine, and Sasha, seven—even though their relationship is strained.

The split announcement followed rumors in the Spanish tabloids that the couple were on the verge of breaking up, with sources claiming he had cheated on the star.
