It seemed that the waters had returned to normal after the confirmation that the hatchet between Shakira and Gerard Piqué was buried, but the Colombian singer has returned showing that no, she has a while. Not against the father of her children, but against the rest of her in-laws.
This time it is the turn of the former footballer's father, Joan Piqué, whom he allegedly refers to in his new single, El Jefe, which deals with the abuse of power and labor injustices. The artist also dedicates her song to the Bolivian Lili Melgar, the nanny who took care of her children during her years in Barcelona and who, allegedly, was unfairly fired.
''Lili Melgar, for you this song that they didn't pay you compensation for,'' says the one from Barranquilla in the song she released with the Mexicans Fuerza Regida; accompanied by a video in which Melgar herself appears, with her very serious face.
According to sources close to the Colombian, Piqué fired Melgar when he found out that she had given Shakira key information that would have allowed her to discover his infidelity with Clara Chía. Furthermore, the song suggests that the Catalan owes compensation to the worker for non-payment of her working hours.
The nanny would be awaiting compensation from Gerard Piqué, but she did not hesitate to say yes to Shakira when she moved to the United States last April. Furthermore, her appearance in the music video would not have been free, but rather she would have charged a substantial amount.
According to TardeAR, the amount that the Bolivian would have received for appearing in El Jefe would be around one million euros, in addition to having the right to collect part of the royalties generated by the views of the video on platforms such as YouTube, which in just a few hours already exceeds 12 million views.
A stellar appearance that has already had a response from Gerard Piqué, who was quick to respond to the appearance of his former employee in the new video of the mother of his children. As journalist Lorena Vázquez has said in And Now, Sonsoles, Melgar would not have received her compensation because when he separated from the Colombian, the nanny continued her work with the children, in this case for Shakira, agreeing to move to the United States.
The Bolivian shares her life and trips around the world with Shakira and little Milan and Sasha - who call her "yaya" - for whom she has become another member of the family. Currently, she does not maintain contact with Gerard Piqué, who no longer considers her someone he trusts.
