Shakira isn't done shaming her unfaithful ex Gerard Piqué.

In her new music video for the track "El Jefe" — which translates to "The Boss" — she apologizes to their former nanny Lili Melgar, who was reportedly axed without proper pay by the soccer star after she exposed his affair with a younger woman.

Shakira and Gerard Piqué confirmed their split in June 2022.

"This song is for you, since you weren’t paid severance/Another fart, as always," the mom-of-two sings, referencing Piqué's wrongful move.

Meglar then pops up in the video and gives a stern look right into the camera with her hands placed on her hips.

The Latin Grammy winner, 46, has dissed the father of her two sons in multiple songs since she discovered her beau of nearly a dozen years was sleeping with Clara Chia Marti, 24.

The music icon called the split "one of the most difficult, darkest hours of my life."

"I can only say that I put everything I had into this relationship and my family," she told ELLE, noting she quit her "nomadic" lifestyle to stay put in Barcelona for Piqué's career.

"It’s really upsetting for two kids who are trying to process their parents’ separation. And sometimes I just feel like this is all a bad dream and that I’m going to wake up at some point. But no, it’s real," she continued, referencing their boys, Milan,10, and Sasha, 8. "And what’s also real is the disappointment to see something as sacred and as special as I thought was the relationship I had with my kids’ father and see that turned into something vulgarized and cheapened by the media."
