«What for me was a catharsis and an outlet, I never thought that I would reach number one in the world directly at 45 years old and in Spanish. I want to embrace the millions of women who rise up against those who make us feel insignificant.
These words are part of the last message that Shakira has delivered through her Instagram account after publishing her song against her ex-husband Gerald Piqué and his new girlfriend, Clara Chía Marti, 23 years old.
A composition where, over a technological, simple, danceable melody, the 45-year-old Colombian artist says phrases like the following:
«A wolf like me is not for beginners. I was big on you and that’s why you’re with someone just like you.
«You left my mother-in-law as a neighbor, with the press at the door and the debt in the Treasury. You thought you hurt me and you made me tougher. Women no longer cry, women invoice.
«I am worth two out of 22. You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo. You traded a Rolex for a Casio. You go fast, go slow. A lot of gym, but it works the brain a little too ».
Shakira mentions her ex-husband, with whom she has two children, and her new girlfriend, a public relations student with whom, according to various published versions, he was unfaithful before the official announcement of the marital breakdown, in June 2022.
The lyrics include puns “it’s not my fault that they criticize you, I only make music, sorry that you’re salty… Pique” and “he has the name of a good person… Clearly it’s not what it sounds like” (See the full lyrics) .
While Piqué personally responded to the song this Friday, during the presentation of the Kings League soccer league, owned by the former soccer player and made up of teams led by streamers or well-known players.
The 35-year-old athlete was wearing a Casio watch. At one point he held up the wrist with the watch and announced: “Casio has given us watches for a lifetime. The Kings League has reached an agreement with Casio… This watch is for life. I’m telling you, it’s a motherfuckin’ watch.” He then distributed brand watches to those who accompanied him at the presentation.
