IGLESIAS THE YOUNGER

Enrique Iglesias sounds like an arrogant and ungrateful little brat when he says he doesn’t need and never needed his dad’s help (“He Never Sang for His Father,” by Jordan Levin, Nov. 23). Does he discount having the Iglesias name as well as an inside track to his dad’s agent as help?

Let’s see where he is two or three years from now.

In the murderously competitive music business, there are hundreds of handsome, vocally gifted young men whose collective name is Mike Smith who find it almost impossible to crack open the door to exposure that miraculously would open at the mention of the name Julio Iglesias.

Pampered young Enrique has much to learn.

Enrique: Never needed your padre? You did nine months before you were born! Try singing Eddie Fisher’s oldie, “Oh! My Pa-Pa.”
