Enrique Iglesias was unpopular with girls when he was a teenager.
The heartthrob pop star who has been in a relationship with former tennis player Anna Kournikova for almost 10 years didn’t have much luck with the opposite sex when he was growing up, but as soon as got famous lots of ladies were interested in dating him.
“I was the king of heartbroken as a teenager,” he said.
“I was never the heartbreaker. I just couldn’t get laid. Years later, lots of the girls that rejected me came back just because I was famous. It is actually kind of sad.”
Enrique admits it isn’t difficult to attract women when you become a celebrity, and thinks lots of girls are interested in having “fun” with a famous guy.
“If you become a famous singer or actor, or just famous, period, that helps a lot. Girls don’t necessarily want to marry a famous person but I think they like the thought of having fun with them,” he added.
