Hurry Up

Enrique Iglesias plans to leave the spotlight before he turns 50 — unlike his famous father, Julio, who is still crooning romantic ballads after four decades. Millions ask, "Why wait?"

"I'm not sure I want to be up on a stage when I'm 64 or 65...In my father's case, I think he's going to die onstage and I respect that very much. In my case, in 15 years I'll probably look ridiculous singing 'Bailamos' ('Let's Dance')."

Dude, it's pretty ridiculous right now.

The "singer" said dissatisfaction with his own work is what drives him to continue performing and recording. "When I listen to my music I think it can still continue to evolve," he said. "After a couple of months go by, I think I could write a better song." How about you just wait until you can, then come see us.

Iglesias said he is striving to make the perfect record — "One you listen to 10, 15, 20 years from now and say, 'Oh! I wouldn't change a thing.'" Oh, he's already done that as far as I'm concerned. I'll turn any off his records off, and I wouldn't ever change that.
