Shakira gives a befitting reply to her ex-partner Gerard Piqué’s latest
statement about her 'fans'
Singing sensation Shakira, who ditched
Barcelona for Miami, has reacted her ex-partner Gerard Piqué’s latest
comments, saying she's proud to be Latin American.
Following Gerard's comments - who talked about the singer's Latin
American fans and their anger about the footballer on social media - Shakira
gave a befitting reply to her ex-lover.
Gerard, in an appearance on a podcast, talked about the mental
health toll of receiving online hate from strangers, calling them Shakira’s
fans, spoke in Spanish: "My ex-partner is Latin American and you have no
idea what I’ve received over social media from people that are fans of her."
The athlete added: "I don’t know them, it’s people who I
guess don’t have lives. Why should you care about them? Zero. You’ll never
meet them in your life, they’re like robots."
Shakira, who’s
just moved the U.S after after saying goodbye to her ex-partner's Barcelona,
shared a message on Twitter, revealing how proud she was to be
Latina.
“Proud to be from Latin America,” she wrote, adding in the
flags of all Latin American countries.
Orgullosa de ser Latinoamericana.

In her first post after shifting to Miami, the singer said: "I
settled in Barcelona to give my children stability, the same we are now
looking for in another corner of the world next to family, friends, and the
sea. Today we start a new chapter in the pursuit of their happiness. Thank
you to everyone who surfed so many waves alongside me in Barcelona, the city
where I learned that friendship lasts longer than love."
She thanked her supporters, saying: "Thank you to everyone who has
been there to cheer me up, dried my tears, inspired me, and made me grow.
Thank you to my Spanish audience who have always wrapped me in their love
and loyalty. For you guys, it’s only a see you later."
