However one other extra outrageous revenge anthem emerged final week and is making a lot greater waves than Cyrus’ ode to singlehood. It is Shakira’s newest launch in collaboration with Argentinian DJ Bizarrap, the place she’s clearly focusing on ex-boyfriend Barcelona FC footballer Gerard Piqué, in addition to his new girlfriend and his mom. Sadly for Piqué, the tune has damaged data as probably the most considered new Latin tune in YouTube historical past.
Shakira’s uncompromising lyrics embody hard-hitting traces like “Plenty of time within the health club, however your mind wants some work too” and “I used to be out of your league, that is why you are with somebody such as you.” The singer, 45, seems to be referring to Piqué’s new girlfriend, Clara Chia, who’s 12 years his junior. Chia is now 23 years outdated, however she is rumored to have began relationship Pique, 35, when she was 22. This explains one of many juiciest lyrics, the place Shakira sings that she’s price “two out of twenty-two,” including, “You swapped a Ferrari for a [Renault] Twingo, you traded a Rolex for a Casio.
The breakup between Shakira and Piqué has been messy from the very starting. It was introduced that the couple, who’ve two sons, would cut up in June 2022 after 12 years collectively. Amid the information of their unceremonial uncoupling, the singer was additionally below investigation for allegations that she had dedicated tax fraud. Shakira has since been charged six occasions with tax fraud for failing to pay $14.5 million in revenue tax, however now claims it is her ex’s fault. “You left me with my mother-in-law as a neighbor, with the press at my door and a debt to the tax authorities,” she sings within the common YouTube disstrack.
Shakira remains to be battling the Spanish tax authorities, however she has taken the mother-in-law concern very severely. It was reported final week that a big witch doll had been positioned on Shakira’s balcony, which reportedly faces her ex-mother-in-law’s home, and residents have said that they heard the diss observe enjoying at full quantity from contained in the condominium.
And Pique himself didn’t draw back from responding to Shakira’s assaults. Because the tune’s launch 4 days in the past, the previous Manchester United participant has introduced that he’ll develop into a brand new model ambassador for Casio, in response to Shakira’s line referring to him: “[swapping] a Rolex for a Casio”. And to actually emphasize the purpose, he responded to the road about “[swapping] a Ferrari for one [Renault] Twingo’, by coming to apply in an £8,000 Renault. One can solely aspire to those ranges of pettiness.
And with Piqué’s reactions placing the ball again in Shakira’s discipline, we will in all probability anticipate a response quickly. Let’s hope it is as juicy because it has been thus far.
