Enrique Too Hot For Prime Time
Fans of Enrique Iglesias may never see the video for his hit Sad Eyes. Scenes of the singer frolicking in the nude with 19-year-old porn star Cassidey apparently are too flagrante for TV. Famed fashion photographer David LaChapelle directed the video, in which Iglesias and Cassidey are said to be seen splashing in a glass bathtub nearly bringing the water to a boil. Enrique Iglesias' new video may be too hot for TV. Cassidey refuses to say whether their video lovemaking was simulated, but tells us: "Even while we were making it, I was wondering, 'Is this ever going to get on MTV?'" Reps at MTV and VH1 insist the Sad Eyes video was never submitted to their programmers. Thus, one would have to assume that execs at Iglesias' Interscope Records scuttled the video. Messages left at Interscope were not returned. But Cassidey and a spokeswoman for LaChapelle say the video has been shelved. LaChapelle is known for his comic kinkiness. But, even by his standards, his rep says, the Sad Eyes video "was really unbelievable & really sexy. Enrique called David because he wanted something edgy. It's bizarre that someone decided to kill it."

Fan Mail
On The Set Of "Sad Eyes"
OMG! i don't know where to begin. I just got home and it is 5:15 am. Me and 10 other fans got invited to the Sad Eyes video shoot to play fans of Enrique. We arrived around 6 pm dressed to look like fans. Like our said, our role was to be fans, basically chasing Enrique around the hotel where the video was shot.. It was shot in L.A. at the old Ambassador Hotel on Wilshire. The make up people gave us fake tears because they wanted us crying. They put this mentholatum under our eyes and then put water drops over it. Our first scene was Enrique coming out of the elevator and we were there waiting for him. We had to scream and cry and take pictures. And chase him. Our second scene was chasing and grabbing enrqiue through a wedding scene. We did a lot of takes on that one, it was cool. We even knocked over a table. Our last scene was chasing Enrique coming out of the hotel and following him to his car and banging on the windows. But get this, this scene was in the pouring rain! we got soaked. We had to do it 3 times! then they took closeups of all of us while standing in the fake pouring rain! For Enrique, it was all worth it. They made up signs for us to hold and Enrique was like joking with me about my sign. It said Samantha Loves Enrique. I had my photo taken with him like 3times, but i am drenched in all of them, as were all the other extras who took photos with him. we all had a blast and cant wait to exchange photos and videos. I know some of us will get some good shots in the video. It was hard trying to cry because i was so happy. lol. In the video, there are bathroom scenes, bedroom scenes, wedding scenes. In the wedding scene, enrique was acting all shy about kissing the bride in front of everyone. It was cute. Let's see, he was wearing a cream shirt with big collar and cuffs. Striped hiphugger bellbottoms, and a beige trenchcoat. And big square sunglasses. And brown loafers. When our work wrapped at about 1-1:30, enrique shot some outdoor scenes so we went and watched from across the street. He finally wrapped about 4:30 am. He walked across the street and came to see us for a bit. Some of the other girls may post here too with their stories. I will try to post my photos in a couple of days. there's so much more to tell but i am tiredand have to be at work soon.

Virgin Territory
Enrique Iglesias, who once joked to a journalist that he was a virgin, takes a badass Kid Rock-like turn in his next video Sad Eyes, which features the Latin pop hunk frolicking with 19 year old adult video star Cassidey. The clip, which will hit MTV and VH1 by the end of the month, follows Enrique's obsession with the self described ''porn chick,'' whose doleful mug he spots in magazines, on TV, and on his computer screen. His softcore stalking comes to an, um, climax when boy finally meets up with girl and they get nekkid in a see through bathtub. ''It's a total makeout scene,'' Cassidey tells EW.com. ''We look like we're really gettin' it on.'' Some industry observers think this steamy on camera fandango will give Enrique's clean cut image a fresh edge, especially since he's one of the first pop acts to go the ''porn star cameo'' route. ''It'll help him appeal to a demo that he hasn't traditionally gotten before,'' says Simon Glickman, senior editor at the music trade Hits. Teenage guys who've dismissed the 25 year old son of Julio as ''that pretty boy who all the chicks like'' may now start thinking ''he's the man.'' The clip, which is directed by zany fashion photographer David LaChappelle, will also increase Cassidey's profile beyond the beaded off backroom of your neighborhood video hut. And while she doesn't have plans to appear in any more music videos, she has very fond memories of the three day shoot, caressing Enrique's ''buff, shiny chest'' and listening to him joke ''maybe we should do this for real.'' During the taping, Cassidey even learned to like the tune -- a cover of a Bruce Springsteen ballad -- though she's admittedly more of head-banging Slipknot fan. ''Sad Eyes is one of those really catchy songs,'' she explains. ''It was totally stuck in my head for the whole time I was working on the video. And now I even walk around the house naked singing the song.'' Hmm... sounds like a scene for the uncensored director's cut.

AOL CHAT
Question: How is going to be your video of "Sad Eyes"? (from AOL Argentina)
Enrique Iglesias: It's going to be a great video. I did the video with the director David La Chappelle. He's kind of a very edgy director, so [I'm] going to see the reaction to the video... I don't like to talk about it much before the video comes out. I don't want to jinx it. It's going to be amazing.

Hot video director David LaChappelle found that his provocative video for Enrique Iglesias' "Sad Eyes," featuring porn star Cassiedy, was way too hot for the artist's record company, and it has never seen the light of day. "It wasn't that it was graphically too strong," LaChappelle says. "I'm not stupid ... I don't do a video where you're showing body parts or sex acts ... The idea was too strong that he was alone in his room, basically, masturbating to a video."

Vivid-Girl Cassidey ist zu heiss für Latino-Lover Enrique Iglesias! [09.11.2000]
Porno-Star Cassidey, die bei Vivid Video unter Vertrag steht, sorgte in einem neuen Musik-Video von Enrique Iglesias für Aufregung. Angeblich hat die dunkle Schönheit in einer Badewannen-Szene etwas zu viel Haut gezeigt, weshalb das Video laut der News-Sendung "Entertainment Tonight" vorerst nicht ausgestrahlt wird. Tatsächlich aber trug Cassidey beim Drehen ein fleischfarbenes Höschen und Nippel-Abdeckungen während sie sich in der Plexiglas-Wanne räkelte. Was also genau die Produzenten des Clips dermassen auf die Palme gebracht hat ist uns schleierhaft... Enrique Iglesias aktuelles Album "Enrique" hat sich derzeit in den vordersten Plätzen der internationalen Hitparaden eingenistet und weltweit bereits mehrmals Gold und Platin eingeheimst. Zu den bisherigen Hitparaden-Erfolgen des Frauenschwarmes gehören die Songs "Bailamos" und "Rhythm Divine".

"This video is phenomenal -- it is so hot," Cassidey told US Weekly. "My mouth waters every time I think about it!"

El nuevo video del cantante español podría enfrentar la prohibición en Estados Unidos. Una escena muestra a Enrique con una actriz porno. Ha trascendido que el nuevo video de Enrique Iglesias, “Sad Eyes”, que es un cover de un tema de Bruce Springsteen, tal vez no pueda ser visto en Estados Unidos. El erótico video muestra a Enrique retozando con la estrella de espectáculos para adultos de 19 años, Cassidey. La producción fue dirigida por el famoso fotógrafo David LaChapelle. Cassidey comentó que “Enrique fue muy bueno y profesional. Hay fans verdaderos en el video, en una escena de boda en la que Enrique y yo nos casamos, los fans estaban encima y las chicas lloraban y gritaban histéricamente. Y yo me dije, Dios mío. Este chico es realmente una estrella”.

24.10.2000 Enrique zu heiß für Plattenbosse!
Musiker haben’s im Moment nicht gerade leicht, was die Zensurmaßnahmen ihrer Plattenfirmen angeht. Nachdem bereits Robbie Williams sein Video zu “Rock DJ” beschneiden musste und auch sein Duett mit Kylie Minogue “Kids” der Zensur zum Opfer fiel, machte jetzt auch Enrique Iglesias Bekanntschaft mit dem Rotstift der Plattenbosse. Ihn traf es jedoch noch ein weniger härter: Das Video zu seiner neuen Single wurde nämlich kurzerhand eingezogen und muss nochmals gedreht werden. Enrique im Clinch mit der 19-jährigen Pornodarstellerin Cassidey – und das alles auch noch in einer gläsernen Badewanne – war den Plattenbossen für Enriques Zielpublikum “zu lustvoll” ...
