Shakira’s sentimental life is one of the great topics of the world tabloids after her separation from Gerard Piqué. The Colombian singer has chosen to remain single and in a ‘free spirit’ mode for a while, recording new music and in particular several songs directed at her ex-partner. However, now the artist seems to be related to the Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, and out of nowhere nods to this possible connection begin to appear.
The Mexican writer and communicator Violeta Moreno shared for her Twitter followers the new ad for Sabritas, the equivalent of the Lay’s brand in Aztec territory. In it, Shakira appears running away from a multitude of commitments and pending filming driving a van at full speed. Although there is nothing to corroborate it, some users have seen in this campaign a possible reference to the contact between the Colombian and the English.
Some of the footage includes the singer dodging the vehicles of her agents and contract hunters, as well as going through a level crossing at the limit. The video already accumulates nearly 60,000 views on Violeta Moreno’s Twitter account. Among the almost 1,400 “likes” that the spot adds, there are many positive and surprised reactions to Shakira’s most empowered face. “She drives the van like her life,” commented one user.
This display of high-speed adrenaline, dodging cars and trains to enjoy a snack on the beach, has raised suspicions that it is a reference to Lewis Hamilton. The Mercedes driver, seven times Formula 1 world champion, shared a dinner with the Colombian and other friends during the celebration of the Spanish Grand Prix. The two stood side by side in the various photos that emerged from the event.
After breaking up with Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, Hamilton has not been known for another partner. Some media pointed out at the time that there was something more than a working relationship with his physiotherapist and assistant, Angela Cullen. However, the end of this connection left the press with many suitors for the seven-time world champion, who could now have found love again in Shakira.
For her part, the Colombian singer is still embroiled in her separation with Gerard Piqué. After seeing her career at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya first-hand, Shakira gave up her children, Milan and Sasha, to the former Barça soccer player to spend some time with them. The two youngsters had already finished the school year in the United States, and in fact Piqué was expected to travel to Miami to pick him up. However, a bureaucratic problem forced a change of plans.
