Gerard Piqué's Inner Circle Explodes and Reveals How Shakira Treated Her Employees

Shakira has found a creative vein in recounting the adventures of her ex-partner and father of her children, Gerard Piqué, while they were together. Her songs have served as therapy to make amends for the harm caused by her ex. This artistic approach has allowed her to win the 2025 Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album, although with this album, the singer has gone through various emotional stages.

For this reason, it is important to remember an episode that has resurfaced. A person from Piqué and Shakira's circle confessed how the artist treated her workers. With El jefe, the controversy has returned, brought by Cristina Cárdenas, who was the extras coordinator in the shooting of the Colombian's commercials in Spain.

According to her account, the extras' contracts stated that "they have to stand up and face the wall." Cristina Cárdenas described the treatment received from the singer as "dreadful."

Gerard Piqué's Circle Criticizes Shakira

"When you say that no one should look you in the eyes, when you remove a girl from a shoot who stands out more than you and you disdain and humiliate her. There you give yourself away and show that you are not a good professional," she explained. These statements have caused a great stir on social media and in the media.

Additionally, the song has reopened another controversy about the problems Shakira had with her workers in 2012. It involves a married couple of domestic employees responsible for the house maintenance and cooking. At the time, both recounted that a dinner argument abruptly ended the working relationship after years of service.

Apparently, the singer asked the employee to heat up a piece of chicken. He refused, arguing that he had been cooking for 17 people for hours and was exhausted. This response led to immediate dismissal.

Shakira Had Three Lawsuits During Her Marriage to Gerard Piqué Over Her Workers

The couple filed three lawsuits against Shakira. They requested 150,000 euros as "settlement for their years of work." The conflict escalated when the couple reported receiving threats.

They claimed to have received an email with a disturbing message: "You messed with the wrong little person, I will defend her." This situation caused them "anxiety" and "depression."

These testimonies have called into question the singer's attitude toward her staff. The debate about her behavior remains open. Meanwhile, Shakira continues to achieve success with her music and express her feelings through her songs.
