Video Surfaces of Julio Iglesias Forcibly Kissing Host On-Air Amid New Allegations

A video from 2004 has surfaced showing Julio Iglesias forcibly kissing host Susana Jimenez on an Argentinian television show. The incident is recirculating online following recent allegations of sexual harassment against the singer by two former employees. In the video, Iglesias embraces Jimenez and attempts to kiss her, restraining her with his hands. Despite the presenter's reactions, the singer manages to kiss her, causing awkwardness on the show. The two women who have accused Iglesias, a housekeeper and a physiotherapist, claim they were sexually assaulted by the singer while working at his homes in the Caribbean and the Bahamas five years ago. One of the two, using the pseudonym Rebecca, accuses Iglesias of sexual intercourse without her consent. The case has been reported to the Audiencia Nacional in Spain, with Iglesias being accused of human trafficking and sexual assault. The 2004 video adds another layer to the serious allegations facing the singer.
