This video came on in the gym earlier, he's just sexualy assaulting pretty young girls in thongs. I used to like that hero song, I guess the tennis player has ditched him. Yuck and sosad for someone about 40

Enrique Iglesias - I'm A Freak ft. Pitbull:

It's not exactly in good taste...but I just watched most of it and I can't say I saw him 'sexually assaulting' any girls tbh.

hormonalandneedingcheese · 05/10/2014 21:47

YABU, it's definitely not in good taste and I'm now attributing 'panty sniffer' to Enrique but I see no sexual assault and no rapey lyrics either.

LadyLuck10 · 05/10/2014 21:52

Yabu, must be hard to have such a sinister view of everything.

Gruntfuttock · 05/10/2014 22:00

Well, I've just watched the video, and I have to agree that all the women in the video appear to be extremely innocent, virtuous are not behaving in a way that any reasonable person would regard a sexually provocative manner.
Are they all nuns I wonder?

Therefore I have to agree with you that Mr Iglesias's lustful lyrics and actions (although I saw no assaults) are reprehensible.

In fact I would go so far as to say "Tsk".

SpringBreaker · 05/10/2014 22:00

yep those women look like they are being filmed against their will..... not

ChangelingToday · 05/10/2014 22:24

Think he's still with the tennis player, they broke up and got back together last I heard. All his videos have the same theme.

CatKisser · 05/10/2014 22:29

Well, it's just your usual sexist bullsit isnt it? Just the usual images of women being nowt more than shaking, thrusting arses and pouty lips while the Man slavers over them. But don't stress OP, nothing to worry about here. It's normal.

ladygingina · 06/10/2014 08:34

Well if someone bent me over and fingered my bum I'd count it as sexual harrasment!

Oh maybe its just normal,but I thought he was a gentleman

PrettyPictures92 · 06/10/2014 09:33

Ladygingina it's only assault if you don't consent... I'm in no doubt that the girls in the video, however innocent looking, have fully agreed to everything that happens

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 06/10/2014 10:05

all i can say is .....looks like one helluva party!

AnyFucker · 06/10/2014 11:00

has he had a hair transplant ?

Username12345 · 06/10/2014 11:01

but I thought he was a gentleman

Dumpylump · 06/10/2014 11:09

Are you maybe confusing him with his dad? He's always very well turned out

squoosh · 06/10/2014 11:17

Can I tell you my favourite Iglesias factoid?

Enrique's 71 year old father Julio has an 8 year old half sister.

AnyFucker · 06/10/2014 11:33

that's mildly interesting Smile

squoosh · 06/10/2014 12:36

My factoid has shrunk a bit with the accusation of only being 'mildly' interesting.

IHaveBrilloHair · 06/10/2014 12:39

Ooooh, I am going to see him next month.

AnyFucker · 06/10/2014 12:40

check if he has a join in his hair, would you ?

ladygingina · 06/10/2014 12:48

I'm not sure about a hair job

But he's had a nose job and a mole removed

Only the men in this video are allowed to be 'freaks' - bald, plain looking, fat, tattoos, hair plugs/toupee, etc.

While the women are all cardboard cut out shop mannequin porn stars... Interchangeable and forgettable.

This is what annoys me.

Yeah, it's a great party... if you're an average Joe male or a beauty queen/ pole dancer female Hmm

So far so normal as music video these days.

Where are the female 'freaks' like Cyndi Lauper, Annie Lennox, Kate Bush?

Instead the youth of today have pole dancers like Miley Cyrus and Nicky Minaj, whilst the likes of Beyoncé and Rihanna wear very little indeed. Seems to be a prerequisite for a female star these days. And really apparent when you have a male and female star together - female star half undressed and in see through clothes whilst male fully clothed and dignity/authority maintained [i.e. Beyoncé singing with Jay-Z, Miley singing with Robin Thicko]

Feels like feminism never happened.

IHaveBrilloHair · 06/10/2014 18:28

I will check out hair/nose/mole jobs, and report back.
I have seen him twice before, and he's great live.

IamGrimalkin · 06/10/2014 18:35

I love Enrique. That is all.

IamGrimalkin · 06/10/2014 18:35

I'm going to see him too brillo ! I can't wait :-)

MrsTerryPratchett · 06/10/2014 18:37

We have Pink Nutcracker.
