Shakira’s Tax Case Is Proof That There Is No Equality Of All Spaniards – Lawyer

Popular singer, Shakira’s lawyer has come out to blame her former husband, Gerard Pique for her tax woes.

The lawyer, Pau Molins recently had his say in court, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Shakira would have saved £100M by dating his rival, Sergio Ramos instead, since residents in Madrid where Ramos played do not pay wealth tax, unlike those living in Catalonia, where Shakira lived with Pique.

He added that it is funny how the Spanish government goes on and on about the equality of all Spaniards, when that is clearly not the case.

His words, “Shakira’s infatuation has cost her 120million euros.

If she had fallen in love with Sergio Ramos instead of Gerard Pique, it would have cost her a lot less.

They go on about the equality of all Spaniards, but it turns out that if you’re resident in Catalonia you can go to jail for a crime they couldn’t imprison you for in Madrid, even if you’re doing the same thing, because there is no wealth tax.

With international artists, it’s very difficult.

Where do they live if they spend all their lives travelling? In 2011 Shakira did a world tour and visited 74 countries.

It’s very complicated to determine where they should pay their taxes.”
