She's still an absolute Enrique STAN she probably still listens to this. Don't think any two people featured in the music video were ever in the same room together during the entire filming process. Love that they had actual pole dancers tho, a lot of times pole dancers in media are just pretty women they found to dance next to the pole and not anyone with actual skill. I remember a behind the scenes video of this that shows Enrique and Weezy were there together but yeah Usher was there another day.

Arguably he'd sold his soul well before this. If you ever listen or read an Enrique Iglesias interview it's kinda strange how different his own music taste is to most of his own music. He likes his 80s rock and pop and you can certainly hear that here and there in his music but overall you wouldn't think that of the guy made famous with the likes of Bailamos and Rhythm Divine. I remember how vocal he (and Shakira) were back in the day that they were pop stars who happened to be Latin, not Latin Pop stars and yet they still went full throated in the Latin Pop direction because that was the trend at the time. I don't think his EDM phase was too much of a stretch giving most of his English material had a dance oriented production. He also pushed heavily for it when Interscope told him that the public would never accept this sound from him. I doubt this is what he thinks of as the material that best represents him as an artist but I actually think he enjoyed this direction a lot at the time. It strikes me he had to have his arm twisted to even try reggaeton but with this he was the one pushing for it. Edited 2 hours ago by CLNC
