At 60, Julio Iglesias is a giant on the Latino music scene. He studied law at Madrid University and was a goalkeeper for Real Madrid before a car accident ended his sporting career. He continued his studies at Cambridge, England, picked up the guitar and went on to become a musical legend, collaborating with Willie Nelson, Diana Ross and Stevie Wonder. By the end of the 1990s, Iglesias had sold more than 220 million albums in seven languages, including French and Portuguese.

Julio’s Don Juan image is boosted by gossip that he has slept with nearly 2,000 women. One of his best known songs To all the girls I’ve loved before (performed with Willie Nelson) goes:

To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along...

Enrique’s brother Julio Iglesias, Jr (inset), who is a year older, recently released his album Tercera Dimensión (Third Dimension) in Spanish.
