Interview from South Africa

Delivering special moments in person
January 18, 2008

By Debashine Thangevelo

I am on the telephone with Julio Iglesias, but can't stop thinking about how much his fortunes would escalate if he had his essence bottled and sold as an aphrodisiac.That the Spanish crooner manages to radiate charm - while seated thousands of miles away in the Caribbean - attests to his magnetism and explains why the ladies go crazy for him."Yes, I'm excited," he says in a Spanish accent. "I have never played in South Africa, but I have been on holiday there before. I stayed many times in Sun City."Mmm … It would seem Mr Iglesias senior, who at the time was lambasted by foreign media at the height of his fame in the '80s for performing at Sun City in the "Independent State of Bophuthatswana" still asserts the gambling oasis resort was not part of South Africa. "I sing and they go home, make love and get pregnant". Charm 1 - Political Correctness 0.
Although he turns 65 in September, Iglesias isn't close to relinquishing his youthful spirit."I am still a young man," he laughs.He got no argument from me, after all he is embarking on a physically demanding world tour, with South Africa being his first pit stop, and that demands loads of stamina.On what fans can expect, he offers: "An emotional performance. I sing and they go home, make love and get pregnant."With Julio and his music synonymous with romance, I asked him about his definition of love."Love doesn't have one," he responds. "It is what happens when two people need and care about each other. It is unexpected … like a storm, sometimes."For someone who was once reported to have bedded 3000 women, Julio seems an uncharacteristically grounded family man. He married Hola! magazine journalist, Isabel Preysler, months after they met in the 70s.They had three children together, daughter Isabel, aka Chabeli, and sons Julio José Jr and Enrique, before divorcing in 1978.He has five kids with former Dutch model Maria Rijnsburger, whom he met in 1990 and is still with. His last child, a boy named Guillermo, was born in May last year."I love women, but I also respect them. I am a father of eight babies, you know. "I believe a woman has more power than a man, because she creates life," he professes. On reports about his lengthy list of conquests, he says: "Imagine that would be true - what power I must have. Unfortunately, I have more power in music than in love."Getting back to his musical career, the singer says some of his fondest memories are coupled with the duets he has done."I worked with so many beautiful singers. I will never forget Willie Nelson (To All the Girls I've Loved Before), Stevie Wonder (My Love) and Frank Sinatra."

Does he still enjoying touring?
"I think as an artist you cannot survive without it. I am not touring because of the money. I just need to sing and be with people. My music is about very special moments in life and to deliver that feeling to the people is rewarding."
