Enrique Iglesias ‘guided by instinct’
Singer who was honoured at the Billboard Latin Music Awards says he’s moved by his fans’ love and performing in front of a live audience.
Singer Enrique Iglesias says he is an artist who is guided by “instinct” and by what “really touches” people.
The Spanish singer won multiple honours at Billboard Latin Music Awards on Thursday evening.
“The awards are not so important to me. It’s the love of my fans, my public, going up onstage and being in front of them and hearing them sing the songs I’ve written. That’s what is really moving,” Iglesias was quoted as saying.
With more than 100 million copies of albums sold, the singer is currently immersed in his successful Sex and Love tour, with the album receiving a total of 19 nominations at the Billboard Awards.
He has been in the music industry for 20 years and his newest songs continue to have the same, or even more, success than the first ones he composed and recorded. His career has garnered him four Latino Grammys, two Billboard Awards, 27 Billboard Latin Music Awards and 10 World Music Awards, among many others.
Iglesias also seems to be very happy with the Enrique Iglesias Scholarship, for boys and girls with musical talent and ambition but with limited economic resources so that they can study at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston.
“What motivates me most about the Enrique Iglesias Scholarship with the Latin Grammy Foundation is that a student who, probably, would not have had the chance to have an education at a school like Berklee, can get one,” he said.
On his current stop in Miami, Iglesias confessed that he feels a great affinity for the city, since his parents, Julio Iglesias and Isabel Preisler, moved the family there.
“I came to live here at 8 and I got used to living here. I like the sea and it seems to me to be a city where you can relax, although I know that this sounds strange because everyone thinks about Miami as a city of partying and fun. But it can also be very calm, if you want, and you can escape to the sea.” IANS
