Him. His father actually carved out a career for himself - Enrique is just his father's son.

Did you know Julio Iglesias used to be a goalie for Real Madrid but had to retire because of a car crash and that's how he went into singing?

Enrique is just his father's son.

In Spain, I guess. I doubt more than 5% of his international fans are even old enough to know his father (and I feel old and Yugoslavian for knowing Julio).

Never heard about Julio Iglesias's career turn.
