Fans and social media users are trolling Shakira after posting a video of herself on TikTok mopping a carpet in the kitchen.

On Valentine’s Day, which happened on February 14, the Colombian singer took a subliminal dig at her ex-husband Gerard Piqué in a controversial TikTok video which has now gone viral.

In the said video, the “Hips Don’t Lie” hitmaker is seen mopping a carpet while singing to SZA’s hit song, “Kill Bill.”

In the video, she is seen lip-synching to the lyrics: “I might kill my ex, not the best idea. His new girlfriend’s next, how’d I get here?/I might kill my ex, I still love him though/Rather be in jail than alone/I did it all for love.”

The lyrics didn’t cause an upset; however, the fact that she mopped a carpet put a lot of social media users and fans off.

EXPLAINER: Why Shakira and Pique never got married

“That’s why pique sacked her, she’s mopping carpet,” a tweep quoted Shakira’s viral video. The tweet itself has gone viral, amassing over 1,000 retweets and 11,000 likes.

Another Twitter user said: “Dmskdnsmskxjdj Pique won and no one wants to admit it.”

Some Twitter users attempted to justify the act.

“Dude, she actually mopped PK teardrops when he begged & cried to her to get back together,” one user said.

Another user explained: “FYI, there is a kitchen rag & kitchen runner. DIFFERENT from carpet use in lounge areas.

K.runner can be cleaned w/brush or mop depending on dirt & there are 101 reasons for the video possible she’s helping SZA promote her song or to show bzrp#53 haters that this song is more ruthless…”
