Shakira Lambasted for ‘Looking for a Scandal’ After Attending MTV VMAs With Gerard Pique’s Kids

Just hours ago, Shakira basked in the glow of winning the prestigious MTV VMA. But, as is often the case in the world of celebrities, the negative limelight has a peculiar way of making an appearance. In this instance, Shakira has found herself in the midst of controversy for attending the event along with the children she shares with her ex, Gerard Pique, and has been criticized for always ‘looking for scandal’.

Even though the former couple had reached an agreement concerning their children, it appears that both still harbor some concerns.

Shakira was heavily criticized for allegedly seeking scandal to ‘sell albums’

Shakira recently graced the MTV VMAs and received an award in the process. The Colombian singer managed to turn a few heads with her stunning outfit. While she lit the stage on fire with her exhilarating performance, it somehow landed her in hot water. Apparently, the local media has condemned her decision to perform alongside producer Bizarrap, during which she included a song dedicated to her former partner, Gerard Pique, following their separation.

Alessandro Lequio, a panelist on a television program, did not hold back his criticism of Shakira. As translated by DeepL and reported by BluRdio, he said, “Sometimes she behaves like a fifth-rate singer, looking for a scandal to try to sell four albums.” Lequio implies that the Colombian artist employs inappropriate tactics to stay significant in the music industry.

He also voiced his worries about the potential emotional effects on the couple’s children, Milan and Sasha, due to the singer’s ongoing performances of the aforementioned song at international events. According to Lequio, this could prolong the children’s distress and perpetuate the conflict between their parents. Be that as it may, these are some bold claims from the Spanish journalist.

While Shakira is getting criticized for her recent MTV VMA antics, her ex Pique, on the other hand, has gone viral again. This time, he is in the limelight for sharing a cryptic message.

Gerard Pique’s cryptic message

While Shakira attended the MTV VMA Awards this week with her children, Pique posted an intriguing tweet. In this enigmatic tweet, he simply mentioned “GG,” leaving many puzzled about its meaning. It could be Pique applauding Shakira for a significant achievement at the event. Otherwise, it might be related to a casual ‘good game,’ given Pique’s reputation as a video game enthusiast.

Previously, the former Barcelona defender had shared another unusual message, consisting solely of a “whale emoji.” While some initially thought it was related to his ex-partner, Shakira, a closer look suggests it might be about his former FC Barcelona teammate, Ferran Torres. Regardless of the interpretation, Pique seems to have a strange reputation for posting cryptic messages.
