Shakira’s most recent song has captured everyone’s eyeballs. Undoubtedly, most public forums are still talking about her breakup with Gerard Pique. And why not? The Latin American singer’s latest track is seemingly also about her ex-boyfriend. In a recent debate, a popular actor criticized her music for now becoming ‘a bit ridiculous’. The actor deemed that Shakira shouldn’t be composing diss tracks anymore.
Everybody is aware of the not-so-sweet ending to the singer’s relationship. In a recent interview, the Colombian icon revealed that the FC Barcelona star walked away while her father was in the ICU.

Shakira is accused of being an attention seeker
The Waka–Waka singer’s latest song is in collaboration with Copa Vacia. The lyrics of that track are quite eye-opening as usual. A few days ago, a report suggested that the 46-year-old is trying to unveil a few hidden secrets from this track. While the lyrics are quite edgy, her songs still garner quite a good response. Within a week of its release, the song has already crossed fifteen million views.
But the famous Alessandro Lequio has completely different thoughts regarding her newest track. He accused the Waka–Waka singer of constantly looking for attention. He said, “What I see is a neglected lady begging for a little bit of love”. That statement raised quite a few eyebrows on the panel itself. Other individuals on the show argued that many celebrities talk about their personal lives through their art.

But Lequio wasn’t quite convinced with that line. He replied, “I agree with you, heartbreak is the protagonist of the best songs and the best works. But a real professional doesn’t have to experience things and then tell the story. A real professional uses his imagination”, as compiled by Semana and translated by DeepL. Lequio concluded by saying that the subject has now become ‘tiring’ and ‘ridiculous’.
Without a doubt, the public controversy between Shakira and Gerard Pique is a never-ending one. Recently, the single mother revealed that Gerard Pique walked out of her life while her dad struggled in the ICU.
