Shakira has caused controversy with her latest song, which features lyrics that appear to target her ex, Gerard Pique.

Here are eight of the most savage barbs on the track…
1. “A lot of talk about being a champion/And when I needed you, you gave me your worst version”
2. “Sorry, I should have kicked you out a while ago/Wolves like me aren’t for beginners.”
3. “This is for you to regret / Chew and swallow, swallow and chew”
4. “I just make music. Sorry to skip you.”
As sung in Spanish, the line becomes “Yo solo hago música, perdón que te salpique”, with the last word (salpique) being a pun on Pique’s name.
5. “You left your mother-in-law as my neighbor / The media is at my door and I owe the government”
This line is Shakira’s Court battle over alleged tax fraud (which she denies).
