“Bizarrap gave me a chance to vent and that was necessary for my healing,” admits Shakira in her first television interview

This is the second time Shakira in the media, he looks back on the stormy separation from the former soccer player Gerard Piquewhich is still speculated to he was unfaithful with the young Clara Chía Martí (hence interruption). He spoke for the first time for an American magazine Elle, a written medium. Tonight instead it was revealed, his first television interview.

“There were days when I had to pick up parts of myself from the floor, and I did it only through music,” says Shakira in her first interview after splitting from Gerard Piqué

Famous Mexican journalist Enrique Acevedo He traveled to Barcelona to talk to the Colombian singer about what everyone wants to hear him about: how have you felt in the last year after the scandalous divorce of the retired football star and the controversies surrounding the songs stemmed from the dramatic experience of a couple who had two children.

However, during the news a watchled by Acevedo, the communicator shared a preview of the dialogue he had with the pop star.

In the video, the artist can be seen in a transparent skin-colored long-sleeved jumpsuit, with her hair combed and loose. When a reporter asked her vision for the heated debate their facial expressions have sparked since the breakup was revealed, Shakira begins by explaining that having a family has always been a dream of hers, a dream that is currently on hold for her.

“I also bought the story that a woman needs a man to complete herself and her family, I also had this dream of having a family where the children would have a father and a mother under the same roof.”

There, the 46-year-old composer changes his tone and adds: “Not all dreams come true in life, but life finds a way to repay you in some way.” In her case, she says, her life made up for it with her children. “He did it in a big way with these wonderful, wonderful children, who fill me with love every day.”

“Good luck with my alleged replacement,” Shakira sings to Piqué in her song with Bizarrap, where she also refers to Clara Chía as ‘clara (mente)’

In contrast, the Barranquilla-born singer-songwriter admits that all this time she felt like an emotionally dependent woman, but she learned to feel complete herself. “I found that this is a fairy tale, that a woman definitely needs a man, because I have always been emotionally dependent on men, I must admit, I was in love with love… I think I managed to understand that. a story from another perspective and to feel that today I am enough for myself, that when a woman has to face the ravages of life, she comes out stronger”.

For this reason, he explained: “When you come out stronger, it’s because you’ve learned to know your own weaknesses, to accept your vulnerability. Also to express what you feel, that pain, because the opposite of depression is expression. Then the singer-songwriter burst out laughing when the host told her he was going to “borrow a phrase.” Shakira illustrates that this is a phrase she read in a book by an author who survived the Holocaust, which she was just reading.

“I think I managed to feel that I am enough, something I never thought I could do. Now I feel complete, I feel dependent on myself. Besides, I have two children who depend on me, so I have to be stronger than a lioness.”

To get to this point, the interpreter of Anthology he explains that this is what he owes to processing his pain. “That strength, in order to be true and not a facade, must be the result of the experience of fighting, accepting, understanding, tolerating the frustration that there are things in life that don’t go the way I want you to, that there are dreams that are broken and that you have to pick up small pieces from the ground and build again”.

When Enrique Acevedo questions him about whether music was a place of therapy and catharsis, especially when he brought up the controversy Bizarrap Music Sessions no. 53. Shakira has no doubts about it.

“Someone must have taken a picture of me the day I worked on session 53, before and after, because I entered the studio one way and left the other,” jokes the singer.

After breaking up with Piqué, Shakira bet on spite to create successful songs, with ‘Session No. 53’ with Bizarrap

“One thing I appreciate about Biza is that she gave me that space, that opportunity to vent and yes, it was a great vent that was also necessary for my own healing and recovery process.” If it wasn’t for this composition, he adds, he would be in a completely different place emotionally.

“Being able to express myself about that pain is something that is very important, it’s not just about feeling what you have to feel, but after experiencing the lack of love, betrayal, emptiness, disappointment, whatever it is, you have to feel what you have to feel and also you have to think about how it feels,” the star said.
