“You trade a Ferrari for a Twingo, you trade a Rolex for a Casio.” That’s what Shakira said in her latest song. If you don’t already know, these are the lyrics from the diss song directed at Shakira’s ex-husband Gerard Pique that has been burning up social media these past few days.
Most people were surprised by the lyrical violence against Pique but also his new girlfriend Clara Chía Marti. But who knew this was, in fact, the start of perhaps one of the biggest clashes/wars in social media history? Well, football fans know, because Gerard Pique is known as one of the biggest “trolls” of the game. But this has gone to another level now.
Pique arrived at the stadium in a Twingo

As you can see in this video, it seems that Gerard Pique took “You Trade Ferrari for Twingo” word for word and decided to arrive at one of the most important matches of the year, Barcelona VS Real Madrid, with a bit of an amazing game. Twingo at the stadium.
What’s even funnier, if you look at the face he made when he got out of the car. Until the end, you don’t know It’s him inside, and when he comes out and sees the camera recording him, he smiles widely, knowing perfectly well what he’s just done. It was all planned, and after all that was said about him in these lyrics, it was time for him to finally answer.
As said at the beginning, Gerard is a real social media troll, and many memes were created from him, the most famous of which remains “Se Queda” when Neymar left the Barcelona football team for the PSG football team. But that’s not all, he did something else to provoke his ex-wife a few hours before.
Pique signed a contract with Casio
Yes, you read the headline right, it’s not a joke. If you don’t know, along with other famous streamers like Ibai, Gerard Pique is the owner of the King’s League, a futsal soccer tournament where teams consist of only 7 players. And of course, for any football team, you need sponsors. And guess what? He got a new one, and It’s a Casio!

While wearing a Casio and showing it off during the live stream, he declared that he had just signed a partnership with Casio for King’s League and he was very proud of it. He then added that the Casio “is a very good watch, a Casio is for life” before getting up and handing out a brand new Casio to each young man on the live stream.
And of course, this will further heat up relations with Shakira and everyone around her, most of whom are against her decision. Fortunately, he can still count on Sergio Aguero, the former Argentine soccer player, who is on the live stream with him. Aguero, who is also part of the League of Kings project, was asked why Casio decided to sponsor the championship, and he replied “because of Shakira’s song”, causing excitement on set.
Brand answer
Of course, several brands have responded to Shakira’s lyrics. And not surprisingly, the one who decided to communicate was not Ferrari or Rolex, glorified in the song, but the French car brand Renault and the Japanese watch brand Casio. As for Casio, we already know what happened, they signed a collaboration with Pique for his football championship.
Also, a parody account opened on Twitter and made people think that Casio was the answer to Shakira. But of course, it was rejected, although, as you can see in the following tweet, the joke was funny.

However, one brand that actually responded was Renault, with a bit of humor and a reference to one of Shakira’s most famous songs.
#Renault #Twingo will always support you Shakira anytime, anywhere https://t.co/EAkV0K2EVp

This was tweeted on every Renault account worldwide, including Columbia, where the singer is from. Do you know what that means? Renault sided with Shakira while Casio sided with Pique. We may be in for a new war between these brands, and with the combination of a clash between Shakira and Pique, this could be one of the greatest entertainments the Internet, and especially Twitter, has ever known. The story will continue, for sure.
