Enrique Iglesias Slammed For Kissing An Overeager Fan During A Meet & Greet In Las Vegas
Iglesias allowed the fan to smooch him while she snapped selfies of the moment.
Singer Enrique Iglesias has been slammed for sharing a kiss with a fan during a meet and greet in Las Vegas. The 47-Year-Old was seen planting a kiss on the female fan’s cheek and then allowing the overeager fan to kiss him on the lips while she snapped selfies of the moment.
Iglesias was initially set aback but eventually grabbed the fan by the waist and allowed the public smooch.
Fans have since been concerned that the incident wouldn’t go down well with Anna Kournikova, whom Iglesias has been dating for more than two decades. Iglesias started dating the retired tennis player in 2001, and the couple has since welcomed children together – twins Nicholas and Lucy, 4, and Mary, 2.
Just recently, singer Iglesias revealed his children had seen the music video where he met with Anna.
He said on Jess Cagle’s SiriusXM show: “I think – no, I know my kids have already seen that video. Whenever they hear one of my songs, they can actually recognize my voice which is pretty cool. But when they watch the video, it thinks it does throw them off a bit. ‘What is Mom doing there, you, with Dad? You know, when was this?”
Iglesias and Anna were introduced while working on his 2001 number Escape video.
However, fans haven’t been able to hold back their opinions following Iglesias’ encounter with the overeager fan. But the singer, who has had back-to-back shows in Sin City, appears unbothered by the criticism, sharing the clip of the incident on his Instagram. It was captioned: “Friday night in #LASVEGAS @resortworldlv; see you tonight!!!”
Of the comments under the post, a fan, assuming Iglesias and Anna are married, wrote: “Won’t your wife be upset?”
Another said: “How does Anna allow this; OMG, he’s married lady. A third stated: “How on earth does Anna endure this.” A fourth wrote: “I’m confused. Anna is cool with it?? I wouldn’t be.” A fifth pointed out: “Wow, so inappropriate of this woman and for you to let her do that. I am sure your wife is not gonna be happy.”
Before becoming involved with Iglesias, Anna had a long-term affair with ice hockey player Pavel Bure.
As per DailyMail, rumors of a potential marriage between the pair had emerged in the early 2000s, although neither of them confirmed it. However, Iglesias and Anna in 2017 announced they had started a family after welcoming a pair of twins. The latest addition is Mary; she was welcomed in January 2020.
