About this person

Born in Madrid on 23 September 1943, Julio José Iglesias de la Cueva built a career on voice and reach rather than flash. By 1983 he held the record for singing in the most languages; by 2013 he was formally recognised as the most commercially successful Spanish singer in the world and the best-selling male Latin artist of all time. He became the biggest foreign seller in Brazil, France, and Italy, and in Spain itself moved 23 million records - a domestic record. In April 2013 Beijing honoured him as the most popular international artist in China; that same month he entered the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame. UNICEF named him Special Ambassador for the Performing Arts in 1989, and his star has sat on the Hollywood Walk of Fame since 1985.
