Isabel Preysler watches Julio Iglesias Concert

Filipina journalist Isabel Preysler and daughter Ana Boyer were at Isabel's son Julio Jose Iglesias's concert this past Friday, October 10, 2008 at a popular Madrid club.

Julio sang Spanish versions of 80s hits like Cyndi Lauper's Time After Time, as well as his hits like 'Dejame Volar'. Julio Jose is Isabel's first son with ex-husband Julio Iglesias. Enrique Iglesias is her second son.

Isabel and daughter Ana were the loudest to applaud, and the pride Isabel felt for her son was present on her face. "I can't be objective because he's my son, but he was phenomenal," said Isabel on Julio's performance.
Julio Iglesias Jr.'s fall projects include the promotion of his new album, as well as his job as a spokesmodel for the new clothing line Soy, by Egatex. He modeled clothes from the line at the red carpet that night.Photo scans from Isabel Preysler Hola Magazine feature in October 2008 issue. Translated from Spanish by R. Arce.

Occupation: charmer - singer Julio Iglesias, Jr
Interview Magazine
Helen Eisenbach

Julio Iglesias, Jr., has the looks and charisma of his debonair easy-listening superstar dad and a voice of his own. But what else has he got? Interview went to his hotel room to find out

Some musicians have an ambivalent relationship to their stardom. Performing as if compelled by nameless inner demons, they can seem indifferent, even hostile, their audience irrelevant to private scenes they're enacting in their own heads. Then there are those performers who live only to seduce, as if their relationship with their audience were a love match somehow predestined from birth. Any guess as to which kind Julio Iglesias, Jr., is?

Made late by his Interview photo shoot, Iglesias stands in the lobby of his hotel talking happily with two women. I've been waiting for some time, but Iglesias is cheerfully oblivious, kissing me on both cheeks when I'm brought to him and then returning to his conversation in animated Spanish. Once he's forcibly extracted - more kisses for the women - we head for his room, which can be politely described as untidy.

For the past week he's been in New York City to put the finishing touches on his debut album, Under My Eyes, a collection of breathy, easy-on-the-ears pop songs mostly written by himself, with a little help from Junior Vasquez and others. Probably more famous in his native Spain, he has started to provoke a reaction here; after a recent Ricky Martin concert fans ignored the headliner to inundate Iglesias with demands he autograph their Ricky Martin posters. If his music is, in his own words, "completely different from my father's," it doesn't take more than two minutes in the son's company to notice the traits he shares with Papa. Boyishly good-looking with a smooth yet puppylike charm, Julio II is poised to bring family tradition into the 2000s.

HELEN EISENBACH: Did you enjoy being photographed?

JULIO IGLESIAS, JR.: [buttoning his fly] I did.

HE: So I see. [JI looks up and laughs] You grew up in Madrid?

JI: Until I was ten years old; then I moved to Miami, where my father was living. Mom still lives in Spain.

HE: Did you have any nicknames when you were young?

JI: Always Julio, Little Julio. My mom used to call me Kung Fu. [mimes a kung fu move] She's from the Philippines - I'm more Filipino than my whole family. I used to walk around with a bandanna - woo!

HE: And how old are you now?

JI: How old do you think I look?

HE: I have no idea. You're ageless.

JI: I'm twenty-six. I was born on February 25, 1973.

HE: You grew up with your father?

JI: Pretty much. My father was always [sings] "on the road again. . ."

HE: Did he take you with him?

JI: Sometimes. I've been all over Europe with him.

HE: Did he ever bring you out onstage with him?

JI: Yes. I used to hate it! It used to embarrass me.

HE: Did you cry? Did you smack him?

JI: I did! I was so young, you know, I was a little afraid - so many people! And the lights.

HE: Did you ever imagine you'd be doing it yourself someday?

JI: I didn't realize until I was twelve or thirteen that I wanted to be in the entertainment industry. First I wanted to be a fireman. Then I wanted to be a football player, get myself a cheerleader. But I didn't become strong enough.

HE: And you figured out how to get the cheerleaders anyway. How did your show business career begin?

JI: With a little bit of modeling. It was fun; it paid my phone bill.

HE: How did that come about?

JI: I met the photographer Bruce Weber and did a shoot for him, for Versace. Then I hosted my own show on Latin American TV called Mosaico. We used to travel around South America and just show the nice places. It was cool, but music is what I really want to do.

HE: When you were growing up did your father give you any advice: Do this, don't do that? Stay out of the business?

JI: My father has always been very frank with us. If we want to do something, he's always very helpful. He's happy I'm doing well - he loves the music.

HE: Would he tell you if he didn't?

JI: Oh, hell yeah!

HE: Is that tough? A high standard to live up to?

JI: Yeah. I do my best, you know, and if people like it, I'm happy. And if they don't like it [whispers] f--- them.

HE: Who has influenced you musically?

JI: Sting, Bryan Adams, Michael Jackson.

HE: Your songs remind me a little of George Michael.

JI: My goodness, so many people tell me that!

HE: It's because you're all breathy. I've heard four of the songs.

JI: When the CD comes out, we'll send you a full one, OK? Some love songs in there for you, baby.

HE: With a big nude photo?

JI: Nude?! That's later on in life. [laughs] First I need to do a little weight-lifting.

HE: What was the first song you wrote?

JI: I don't even remember, it's been so long. I started writing in high school. I wrote nine songs for this first album. Some dance songs, some a little more mid-tempo, and then ballads. I like everything. Sometimes I get in the mood to listen to opera, you know? I can be in the mood to listen to rap, R&B, pop music.

HE: Are you ready to play big venues?

JI: That comes a little bit later, after the second album. You have to have enough songs. I want to play Madison square Garden, baby!

HE: You're not too shy?

JI: Me? No. You start working in TV, in front of the camera every day, and you get used to it. Sometimes you just go like this [snaps] and you change.

HE: Where do you see yourself three years from now?

JI: Hopefully, very successful.

HE: All work and no play?

JI: I go to both extremes. I like to have a lot of people around me or I don't like anybody around me.

HE: What's the worst thing you do?

JI: I don't do anything bad. Honestly, I'm such a good boy. Can't you tell?

HE: Were you ever not a good boy?

JI: No. My mother and father have always been very strict. Our manners. . . everything had to be perfect.

HE: Were you ever mad because they were so strict?

JI: Of course I was! We used to have a baby-sitter and the day she had off, oh, it was like heaven! Party time!

HE: Do we have any home movies of that?

JI: We probably do.

HE: Do you like New York?

JI: I've been back and forth to New York since I was little, and for work I've been coming for the last year and a half. I like New York, but I also like a little green, you know? It's hard for me to breathe here sometimes.

HE: Would you come just for fun?

JI: Why not? For three, four hours - then I'd get back on a plane. [smirks]

HE: Look at you smirking.

JI: I've heard that word like ten times this week! What does it mean? Yesterday in the photo shoot, I heard "smirk"; today I heard, "Give me a little smirk." What the hell is "smirk"? [sings] "I came to New York and everyone was smirking . . . ."

HE: What's the first thing you're going to do when you get home tonight?

JI: McDonald's. I eat McDonald's or Burger King every day. I know it sounds gross but I just do, every single day. Lately, it's the first time in my life I'm gaining a little weight. I weigh 165 pounds.

HE: I'm sorry to hear that.

JI: Sports help me out a lot. I love surfing, windsurfing, jet skiing, waterskiing. I'm a water person. I'm a Pisces.

HE: What qualities are Pisces supposed to have?

JI: Romantic, sensitive, pure people.

HE: And are any of those true about you?

JI: All of them. One of the bad things is that Pisces people are perfectionists.

HE: Mean to everyone around them?

JI: No! We're not mean. We're hard to get. [slams hand on table for emphasis] Yes, we are!

HE: Do you like staying in hotels?

JI: Yes, because I don't have to pick up after myself. I'm such a neat person when I'm not in a hotel. In my house, oh, my God, everything has to be perfect. You know me.

HE: I don't, really.

JI: [low-voiced] Nobody knows me. It's a lonely life. I'm so lonely.

HE: Are you a tease?

JI: You think so?

HE: Not you.

JI: Me? Nooooooo. But I think everybody is a little, you know?

Julio Iglesias, Jr. El Club de Flo

Filipino singer and model Julio Iglesias Jr. can add another profession to his resume - comedian. Julio Jose received rave reviews for his comedic talents one of the stars of the recent Spanish reality show "El Club de Flo."

That means that we have another successful Filipino comedian in the world besides Rex Navarrete, and it's one of those kids of Isabel Preysler, gotta love them. The only difference is Rex does it in English, Julio does his comedy in Spanish. And he's hilarious, his comedy is so funny. It takes too much time to translate everything he's saying into English, but you can ask your Spanish-speaking lola, tito, neighbor or teacher to translate it for you, because he's a funny guy. Maybe you can even make it part of your school project if you have Spanish class in school.

Filipino singer Enrique Iglesias

Filipino singer Enrique Iglesias is back on the top of the charts with his latest album Insomniac and with a Top 5 Single "Do You Know".

“Though I was born in Madrid, my being a Filipino is very strong in me,” says Enrique. “When I was growing up, my mom (Isabel Preysler) would always talk about the Philippines. She taught us the things that are very important to Filipino culture such as family, being hospitable to guests, and fear of God. I even remember the Filipino dishes she used to whip up.” - Manila Standard, March 18, 2004

Enrique Iglesias Talks About Being Filipino


"I think it must be harder to be female than male. Apart from having to deal with period pains, pregnancy and child birth, I think women are more emotional than men. It's not just that they find it easier to talk about emotions, I think they actually feel emotions more deeply."

"I'm as comfortable with women as I am with men. Of my closest friends, three are men and two are women.

"I learned a lot about women from my mother and my nanny, but I don't think you really get to know what makes women tick until you have a romantic relationship."

"Like most men, I'm not very good at romantic gestures."

Filipino People's Real Ancestry

By R. Arce, Filipino Cultured
I always go into forums and read what other Filipinos have to say about Isabel Preysler and her kids doubting their "Filipino-ness" based on their sometimes warped views on what a Filipino is supposed to be or supposed to look like.

A lot of Filipinos are miseducated about this very important topic: Ancestry. Spanish blood does not disqualify someone from being Filipino, first of all because there is no such thing as a Filipino race, which means that unless we're talking about parentage in which one parent is a Filipino citizen and the other is a citizen of another country, nobody is really racially "pure Filipino" "half-Filipino" or a "quarter Filipino" or "1/8 Filipino" as I see often, because there is no such thing as a Filipino race, there is a Filipino people that is made up of the mixture of several races: Malay, Spanish, and Chinese being the major three ancestries of most Filipinos. And also because if that were true, my entire family and I would not be Filipinos and Pilita Corrales, Fernando Poe Jr., Jaime Fabregas, Amalia Fuentes, Armando Goyena, Maritess Revilla, Paquita Roces, Gloria Romero, Piolo Pascual, Kristine Hermosa, Cogie Domingo, Richard Gutierrez, Mico and Bernard Palanca, Aga Muhlach, Claudine Barreto, KC Concepcion, TJ Trinidad, Rica Peralejo, Lucy Torres, Richard Gomez, Rosanna Roces, Vic Sotto, Oyo Boy Sotto, Tito Sotto, Kempee de Leon, Eddie Garcia, German Moreno, and millions of other Filipinos of Spanish descent would not be Filipinos as well. Being Filipino should not only equal to Malay ancestry, but that's the way most Filipinos view it and use the amount of Malay ancestry in a person to qualify whether someone is a "real Filipino" saying things like "she's 1/8 Filipino" when they actually mean she's "1/8 Malay", they use the word Filipino instead of Malay because the word Filipino has become synonymous with Malay ancestry and Malay ancestry ONLY (which results in millions of Filipinos referring to themselves as "Filipino, Spanish, and Chinese", when they really should be saying they're FILIPINOS of MALAY, Spanish, and Chinese descent), and it's incorrect and a result of miseducation, which is why I'm very adamant about rewritting the way Philippine culture and history is written in our books and text books, because people from other countries use books written by Filipinos as a reference to their information, so if the information written by Filipinos themselves is incorrect in the way ancestry is viewed, then that incorrect information will be spread to the entire world (which it already has been) affecting everything, especially the amount of pride young Filipinos have in their own culture.

I don't know exactly when this mixup between the words Malay and Filipino occured, and when Filipinos started to view "Filipino" as an actual homogenous separate race instead of as a national identity made up of the mixture of several races, but what is fact is that it did not start before the 1898 revolution since Jose Rizal was quite fond of using the words "Malay people" in his works, but if you study history and are familiar with the culture that influenced and colonized the Philippines after the revolution in 1898, it's quite obvious that it probably came from the influences of that culture which has a history of segregating races and frowning upon people of mixed race that was imposed on the Philippines after the 1898 revolution. In other words, the concept of mestizaje, the concept which accepts racial mixture as a normal part of national life, which united the peoples in former Spanish colonies after their revolutions against Spain, the concept of mestizaje which unites a people as one regardless of their race was wiped out in the Philippines after 1898, and replaced by the cultural values of a new culture that was not compatible with the previous values, and which wrecked havoc and continues to wreck havoc on Filipinos' sense of identity even to this day. This has a lot to do with why nationalism died very quickly during the first half of the 20th century, and why Filipinos have a hard time uniting as a people today, because the nationalism ideals that took place in the late 19th century built on the ideals of the unity of a single people and country based on mestizaje, was quickly forgotten (obviously, since most Filipinos view being Filipino as a separate race instead of as a national identity, and most don't even know what that word means even though it plays a significantly important role in the history and formation of our country) and was replaced with the national anthem and the forced and imposed allegiance to the cultural values of the country of the Thomasites, something which still affects the Filipino people to this day, in both positive, but also overwhelmingly negative ways.

There were good and bad points to mestizaje, but one thing is undeniable in that it united the peoples in the countries of South America extremely well and instilled in them a sense of national pride in their country that could as well have happened to the Philippines. But it didn't, and it's history, and it's all done. What is important today for Filipinos is education, and more education specifically about the Philippines, because not enough Filipinos care about studying the Philippines, but the truth is, there's still a lot more things to be done, rewritten, corrected, clarified and discovered. A glance in any Filipino history textbook from the Philippines will tell you that.

Mestizaje is the reason why there is no such thing as a Filipino race, and there is no such thing as a Hispanic race as well, contrary to popular belief in most non-Latin countries that like to categorize people into neat racial boxes, which are never correct.

European/Spanish ancestry is always regarded by Filipinos as "foreign ancestry", but it's not really foreign as European/Spanish ancestry has been in the Philippines for centuries and makes up the bloodlines and family trees of millions of Filipinos, and not just in the upper class as most Filipinos are led to believe. Filipino is always referred to as "indigenous ancestry" again referring to how the word Filipino has become synonymous with ONLY Malay ancestry, but again Filipino ancestry is not always just Malay ancestry.

A people's history and ancestry is a very important topic for any country in the world, and education is the key to enlightenment.

It has to start with us, and it has to start with changing the way we use the word Filipino. For example, it's very common for Filipinos to say that a mestizo from the Philippines is of mixed Filipino and Spanish ancestry. This miseducation is so deep in Filipinos, that that's even what I saw written in my niece's history textbook when I visited the Philippines. And that is incorrect, because a mestizo from the Philippines is NOT of mixed Filipino and Spanish ancestry, but of mixed MALAY and Spanish ancestry, and the combination is what makes them a Filipino. Pilita Corrales is not of mixed Filipino and Spanish ancestry, she is of mixed Malay and Spanish ancestry, and she is a Cebuana, and she is definitely a Filipina. This is very important because correcting this simple error in the use of words will also help to correct the negative viewpoints and confusion that many Filipinos have about their ancestry, and also help in having pride in being simply Filipino if people finally accept mestizaje (mixture) as the norm in Filipinos instead of as something to be praised and put on a pedestal.

This will help everyone, those Filipinos who are more European looking than other Filipinos sometimes spend their entire lives trying to prove to other Filipinos how "Filipino" they are, because other Filipinos doubt their "Filipino-ness" because their facial phenotype doesn't match what their perception of what a "real Filipino" is supposed to look like. And it will help eliminate Filipinos' insecurities because it will stop the constant: "Is [Celebrity] really Filipino? He/she doesn't look Filipino!" because they will feel pride in Filipinos of all facial types and skin colors. And if we educate ourselves as Filipinos, and write correct information in our history books, we educate the world about us, and it saves us a lot of time and stress having to explain all the time about why certain Filipinos don't "look Filipino" or why some Filipinos look white and others look Chinese and others have dark skin, because it will be in there in the books, and hopefully written as culturally accurate as possible.

Filipino Mestizos: A quick thought, why you're a Filipino mestizo and you don't even realize it

So back to Isabel Preysler and her kids, everytime I hear other Filipinos say "They're not really Filipino, they're Spanish!" I always remember this photo I saw on Isabel Preysler's website of Chabeli Iglesias and Julio Iglesias Jr. when they were kids dressed in traditional Filipino clothing. Chabeli is wearing baro't saya, and Julio is wearing the traditional costume for Tinikling. I also remember when Enrique Iglesias wore a Philippines t-shirt on MTV's Spring Break 2000, and the picture of Isabel Preysler wearing the Terno, the traditional national costume for Filipina women, at a social event in Spain.

Culture and the passing down of culture to future generations of Filipinos should be more important than racial ancestry, and Isabel Preysler has done a good job in that, which is a lot better than can be said about many Filipino parents in the United States or other countries, according to many young Filipinos who feel upset that their parents didn't teach them anything about their Filipino culture growing up, which seems to be a common thing among Filipinos growing up overseas, because you only have to strike up a conversation with other young Filipinos or visit other young Filipinos' various websites and read their stories to see that. Educating our kids about the Filipino culture is extremely important for their emotional well-being, and in their self confidence when they enter the world as adults.

A picture says a million words.

Isabel Preysler y Enrique Iglesias Fotos

Isabel Preysler closed her official website, but I managed to save the beautiful pictures from it, including pictures with her son Enrique Iglesias.

Many people are always referring to la Preysler as just a "socialite", but she is in fact a journalist, because besides appearing on covers for Hola Magazine, she has in fact worked as a journalist for Hola magazine since 1981, among the many celebrities she interviewed were Richard Chamberlain, Julio Iglesias, and Kevin Costner. She has also covered events hosted by the Philippine Embassy in Madrid and hosted the Spanish television program, Hoy.

Tamara Falco, the Filipina Paris Hilton

Young Filipina fashion designer, Tamara Falco, the 26-year-old second youngest daughter of Isabel Preysler, is recently being hailed as the Paris Hilton of Spain by the media due to her recent TV appearances in which she appears speaking in ... well a rather ditzy voice, which I think is kind of cute because she reminds me of some girls from my high school, however the media loves to make fun of her accent in Spanish with her problems in diction and pronounciation and the fact that she was born with the silver spoon handed over to her.

Tamara Falco recently released her own line of clothing called Second Skin, and has designed a few dresses for her mother Isabel Preysler and sisters Chabeli and Ana.


-What did you guys think about Hormigas Blancas, the recent TV documentary about your mother? Did you like it Tamara?

Tamara: I watched it for a little while, and then changed the channel.
(laughs)

-So you didn't like it at all?

Julio: Well the life of our mother, we already know it.


-You designed that dress?

Tamara: Well, my company designed it.

-Ah okay. Well, you look very beautiful.

Tamara: Thank you very much!

-Have a good time. Where's your boyfriend?

Tamara: In Madrid.

-Is he studying? Is he working?

Tamara: Today he had a job interview, so let's see if they choose him to start training.

-Are you gonna get married soon Tamara?

Tamara: No not for now. No it's not that I'm scared, it's just that I think I'm still too young. So...I don't know, I'll think about it, I dream about it, it's not something I would rule out all together.

-How long have you two been together?

Tamara: It's gonna be about a year.

But if I had to name a Paris Hilton of the Philippines, it'd probably be Kris Aquino.


It seems that problems in diction run in the family, as Julio Iglesias, Jr. has the same problem as his younger sister Tamara, which makes for extremely entertaining TV viewing. They're so funny.

Chabeli Iglesias: Tombola!

The daughter of Isabel Preysler, 36-year-old journalist Chabeli Iglesias, appeared in 1997 on the Spanish TV show Tombola. She was just talking about her separation from ex-husband Ricardo Bofill saying "Well, I think the people overexaggerate it. The press talks about what they want to, make it out to however they want it to be, invent whatever they want..." when all of a sudden, the panelists on the program start yelling at her all at once and call her "a boring, uneducated woman who doesn't do anything besides make TV appearances."

Watch it here:


Chabeli walks out and says "This program should be ashamed of itself."

The beautiful Filipina was just recently interviewed 10 years later in 2007 on the show Donde Estas Corazon, where she talks about the experience. In the end, the interviewer asked her "What if the same thing were to happen right now on this show, where everyone is talking at once at you, yelling at you, what if that were to happen right now?"

And Chabeli with her charm and humour says, "No, I'd tell everybody to shut up." Gotta love her sense of humour.

Isabel Preysler Feliz Con Sus Hijos

Isabel Preysler: Acompañada de sus hijas mayores, Chábeli y Tamara, inauguró la nueva tienda de Porcelanosa en Barcelona

Isabel Preysler acompañada de sus hijas mayores, Chábeli y Tamara, fueron las encargadas de inaugurar la nueva tienda de Porcelanosa en Barcelona. Isabel es imagen de esta firma desde hace veinte años y esta es la primera ocasión en la que comparte protagonismo con Chábeli, recién llegada de Estados Unidos, y Tamara. Faltó la pequeña, Ana Boyer, que el mes pasado cumplió dieciocho años e Isabel explicó el motivo por el que no había podido estar acompañándolas: “Está con la selectividad, quiere hacer Derecho y Empresariales”.


Isabel que es siempre ejemplo de elegancia eligió dos vestidos de la firma Escada para este evento. Lució un traje palabra de honor en blanco y negro a la altura de la rodilla para asistir a la inauguración de la tienda que está situada en el palacio Malagrida del paseo de Gracia. Para la cena posterior en el hotel Arts, llevó un vestido gris perla realizado en gasa y satén. Su hija Chábeli, por su parte, lució un traje blanco de la diseñadora cordobesa Ana Torres en la inauguración que cambió por un palabra de honor rojo para la fiesta. Tamara fue fiel a la firma de la que es propietaria, The Second Skin co, y también al vestido palabra de honor. El que llevó en la inauguración era amarillo con una lazada delantera en negro, para la noche se cambió con un traje verde de gasa.

Isabel comentó que no cree que sus hijos Enrique y Julio se decidan a casarse de momento: “Me encantan sus novias pero creo que no se casarán hasta que no estén listos para ser padres”. Enrique está saliendo con la ex tenista Anna Kournikova mientras que Julio está unido a la modelo belga Charisse Verhaert. Sus cinco hijos y su marido, Miguel Boyer, parecen ser el secreto de su felicidad ya que comentó: “Cuando estoy rodeada de mis hijos y mi marido soy totalmente feliz”.

Tamara Falco Linea de Ropa

Tamara Falcó, daughter of Isabel Preysler, recently released her own line of clothing called Second Skin. Here's Tamara at the Marie Claire Awards at the French Embassy in Madrid wearing a beautiful white cashmere dress with accompanying white shawl/jacket from her fashion line, accompanied by younger sister Ana Boyer. Isabel's lovely daughters seemed to have inherited her mother's penchant for shawls, reflecting the style of the Philippines. Tamara also designed a few dresses for her mother Isabel Preysler, including one worn by Isabel during a highly publicized dinner party for George Clooney at the Preysler house.
