Enrique Iglesias sizzled up a storm as he played a date of his Trilogy Tour at the T-Mobil Arena in Las Vegas on Black Friday.
The 48-year-old Spanish crooner has been accompanied on his latest whirl of concerts by none other than Ricky Martin and Pitbull.
Onstage at the sprawling venue, which seats a whopping 20,000, Enrique exuded his unmistakable showbiz magnetism.
He slipped on a clinging black t-shirt that showed off his toned forearms and emphasized his lithe torso as he stalked the stage.
Allowing a distinguished touch of scruff to crawl across his matinee idol features, he shaded his face with a baseball cap.

Meanwhile Ricky, one year after his scandalous family drama and just months after he divorced his husband of seven years Jwan Josef, showed no sign of disquiet.
Quite the contrary, Ricky, 51, was the image of joie de vivre as he bounded youthfully around the stage during Friday night’s show.
The Livin’ La Vida Loca hitmaker wore a flesh-flashing grey tank top underneath a sheer black wrap that blew back as he worked his way through his choreography.
Enrique’s latest tour date comes after he maintained he is keeping his promise to stop recording new music after the release of his upcoming 11th studio album.
With the focus now on Final (Vol 2) in recent months, when the second Final installment finally does drop in February it will have come more than two years after its predecessor.
The Final volumes are reportedly the last the Hero star will release in the traditional album form.
In a step up to the promotional push, the pop superstar provided a timeline for the album’s release, and then opened up about what that meant for his career.
‘It’s finished. It’s actually coming out in February,’ Enrique told Today. ‘It’s completely finished. What I want to do is shoot one or two videos right before the second leg on the tour and launch it.’

Enrique would go on to reiterate that his upcoming studio album, Final (Vol 2), will in fact be his last.
‘I’ve been working on this album for quite a bunch of years. And for me it was always like I said, my final album… this is it. I don’t think — no, I know, I won’t be doing any more albums.”
Fans of the Bailando crooner will get a chance to catch the singer in action during his ongoing current tour.
Since mid-October, Iglesias has been out on the road with Ricky Martin and Pitbull for The Trilogy Tour.
A month into the triple-headed concerts, it was announced that the tour was being extended with 18 new shows taking place in 2024.
The trio of stars, who have all reaped the rewards of being a big-time pop star, are all well acquainted with each other after having shared the stage while out on tour together.
Iglesias and Pitbull previously went on tour in 2017, while Iglesias and Martin also teamed up in 2021 for their own series of gigs.
The Madrid, Spain native has been open and honest in recent times about the Final volumes being the Hero star’s last release in the traditional album form.
‘It might be my final album. It’s not something that I have been thinking about for the past few months. It’s something that I have been thinking about for the past few years,’ Iglesias shared during an Instagram chat with Ricky Martin and Sebastian Yatra, as reported by The Reporter in September 2021.

‘There’s going to be Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, but they’re final. I’m in that moment in my life, that chapter in my life, where I think it’s the right time to put it out and I’ve been thinking about this since 2015.’
Despite the news, fans can be rest assured that Iglesias has insisted he won’t stop making music altogether. He promised that was not the case, and that he would be dropping singles, and other projects will still come.
‘For me, in my life, I think this is that final one,’ he affirmed of his decision.
‘I’m never going to stop writing songs because I love writing songs, but I’m going to do it in a different way – meaning they don’t necessarily have to be packaged as an album – so this project to me is important,’ he explained at the time.
In a sign he will still be active somewhat, Iglesias released the first Vol. 2 single, Así Es La Vida, featuring Argentinian singer Maria Beccera, in October.
Again, legendary singer-songwriter Enrique Iglesias has revealed he’s retiring from recording new music in the traditional album form after hie drops Final (Vol 2) in February 2024.
