“Nothing in the Past” – Shakira Shades Gerard Pique After Winning Latin Grammy Award as She Dedicates Win to Her Children

Even when soaring high, Shakira does not forget the actions of Gerard Pique. Recently, the Colombian superstar received the 2023 Latin Grammy Award in the Song of the Year category for Music Sessions Vol. 53. The 46-year-old turned a lot of heads towards her as she graced the occasion in a black and gold two-piece set with her two sons, Milan and Sasha. Music Session, Vol. 53, was a controversial song because of its sharp lyrics against her ex-boyfriend and father of her kids, Pique. Consequently, while receiving the award, the ‘Waka Waka’ singer didn’t forget to throw shade at the former Spanish footballer.

 When Shakira broke up with Pique after staying together for eleven long years, she was emotionally drained. However, in those dark times, music became her strongest weapon to fire back at those who wounded her. The Barranquilla native is now reaping the benefits of producing back-to-back hits. Nonetheless, even while receiving one of the most prestigious awards, Shakira hinted at the horrifying experiences of her past. Let’s find out what Shakira said while receiving the award.

Shakira indirectly mocked her ex-boyfriend Gerard Pique

 This Saturday, Shakira and Bizarrap won the Song of the Year after competing against hits like ‘Ella Baila Sola’ by Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma, ‘Brown Eyes’ by Lasso, and ‘Of All Flowers’ by Natalia Lafourcade. The Colombian star was elated and after receiving the award, as per El Sol De Mexico, she said, “As a friend says, there is nothing in the past, only the future is remembered.“Shakira wanted to convey the message that her unpleasant past with Pique is of no relevance to her and that now she is focused on building a remarkable future.

 Additionally, the ‘El Jefe’ singer dedicated the award to her sons, Milan and Sasha. She added, “This award, I dedicate it to my sons, Milan and Sasha because I promised them I would be happy.” She later melted the hearts of the audience by revealing that she promised her sons that she would laugh with all her strength, as that’s what they deserved to see.

Shakira won a total of three words at the ceremony that was held at the Seville Conference and Exhibition Palace in Spain. On the same note, the Colombian pop star lived in Spain with Gerard Piqué before they parted ways. Now, she has moved to Miami and has found a new life there.

The Colombian’s move from Barcelona to Miami

The pop star was forced to leave her home in Barcelona as Gerard Pique’s father sent her a legal notice. This move from Joan Pique ended up with the ‘Whenever Wherever’ singer, leaving Barcelona earlier than she anticipated. Relocating to Miami became the best decision of Shakira’s life, as she could turn over a new leaf. According to Shakira, moving to Miami helped her flourish in both her personal and professional lives. She was able to reconnect with her old friends and produce colossal hits like ‘El Jefe’.
