Gerard Pique and Shakira

Gerard Pique and Shakira, There’s a reason Shakira doesn’t make music videos with men anymore: Her boyfriend Gerard Pique won’t let her.

That’s right, “The Voice” coach isn’t allowed to work with men in her music videos. “He’s very territorial,” Shakira tells Billboard. “Since he no longer lets me do videos with men, well, I have to do them with women.”

But Shakira doesn’t have a problem with Pique’s rules for her. “It’s more than implied in our relationship that I can’t do videos like I used to. It’s out of the question, which I like, by the way,” Shakira says. “I like that he protects his turf and he values me, in a way that the only person that he would ever let graze my thigh would be Rihanna.”

That rule led to Shakira and Rihanna’s steamy “Can’t Remember to Forget” music video … and only because Pique allowed the two women to work together. Can you believe Shakira’s boyfriend set rules for her, and she doesn’t have a problem with them? That just doesn’t seem right.

Gerard Pique And Shakira, Gerard Pique and Shakira’s romance has been confirmed since early 2011, but now the relationship is threatening to mar the footballer’s career.

Pique, until a few weeks ago, was a regular starter for Barcelona, probably the finest team in the world. Recently, he’s been excluded from key games, including a recent UEFA Champions League clash. Why is the defender suddenly a pariah?

Reports from Spanish papers claim Barca manager Pep Guardiola is displeased with how Pique is being distracted by his relationship with Shakira.

The papers say that friction first occurred when Pique posted pictures of himself vacationing with the pop star. He was seen in the photos white-water rafting, an activity forbidden by his high-flying club. Supposedly Pique has been late to training more than once this season, and has broken other team rules.

Guardiola is still mulling over whether to stay with Barcelona, but newspaper reports have suggested he’ll only stay if Pique goes.

However, there are other forces to consider. The higher-ups at Barcelona feel Pique is too valuable to lose. As a relative youngster (25) and an accomplished center-back, the club is keen to keep him, especially as fellow defender and club captain Carles Puyol (33) is entering the twilight seasons of his career.
