In relation to the Becky G situation, the internet has shamelessly drawn direct comparisons with the Shakira – Pique controversy.
What is the Becky G controversy all about?
Rebbeca Marie Gomez aka Becky G has recently been the talk of the town. Recently, the popular singer was at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. Despite winning an award for Best Latin/Pop Reggaeton Song of the Year, everyone’s attention was elsewhere. While she posed for pictures on the red carpet, a few fans noticed a very minute change in her jewelry.

They couldn’t spot Becky G’s engagement ring on her fingers. Putting everything into context, the American singer and her fiancé were in a complex infidelity controversy just hours before the award show. However, the details of the controversy aren’t very clear yet. The infidelity incident reportedly took place in 2022 when the soccer star was at a nightclub in Madrid.

Just a day ago, Lletget posted a public statement in reference to the controversy on Instagram. He admitted, “Over the last several weeks, during a moment I regret deeply, a 10-minute lapse in judgment resulted in an extortion plot”. This situation is certainly far more complicated than it sounds. The MLS star revealed that this matter has become public after a ‘certain person’ did not get what they asked for.
Shakira and Gerard Pique were in a similar position to this in 2022. The public feud between both of them has somehow gone on and on for months.
How similar was the Shakira – Pique controversy to this one?
While the Becky G situation seems like a messed up situation with tons of rumors, Shakira’s controversy with Pique was crystal clear. The FC Barcelona legend was in a relationship with a 23-year-old co-worker for the past several months. After the Colombian singer returned from a work trip, she caught Pique red-handed in the weirdest way ever.

The two of them didn’t stretch the drama any further and decided to split ways immediately. All the drama around the Shakira – Pique controversy mainly started after the Colombian released her first diss track with Bizarrap earlier this year. Luckily, the ‘third party’ involved in this infamous controversy is Clara Chia Marti, who everybody already knows. As compared to this ‘certain unknown person’ in Lletget and Becky G’s relationship has seemingly fallen apart.
