It was his manager that negotiated an exclusive male modeling agreement with Joey Hunter (at the time he was the president of the Male Model division) at the Ford Models Agency in New York. It was through Joey Hunter, that Iglesias Jr. was discovered by photographer Bruce Weber. He went on to campaign for Versace.

Los Demas
Julio Iglesias Jr. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sin creer en el destino.
Siempre buscando un refugio lejos,
Donde pasar nuevos momentos.
Vuelo con los ojos cerrados, (vueeelo)
Es un circo sin payasos (mientras sueño)
Sin sabeeer...
Los demáaas lloran también
Los demáaas... y los demáaas
Yeah
Seré rebelde porque nunca admito, (yo se que)
Debe ser inocente.
Me alejo de mis pesadillas, (vueeelo)
La soledad creando heridas (mientras sueño).
Sin sabeeer...
Que los demás viven bien
Los demáaas lloran también
Los demáaas... y los demáaas
Yeaaah
(Duele soñaaar...
Quiero escapar,
Duele vivir
Sin poooder sonreír...
Como los demáaas...)
Seré impaciente...
Porque nunca encuentro,
Aaalgo diferente.
Woooah
Sin saber...
Que los demás viven bien
Los demáaas lloran tambiéeen
Y los demáaas...
Que los demás viven bien
Que los demáaas lloran tambiéeen
Y los demáaas...
Que los demás viven bien
Los demáaas lloran tambiéeen
Y los demáaaaaaas.
The song Los Demás, by Julio Iglesias Jr., is about feeling lost and searching for a place to belong. The singer identifies himself as a bohemian without direction, who doesn't believe in fate and always seeks a refuge where he can create new experiences. The singer admits to being a rebel who refuses to admit guilt and admits to avoiding his nightmares and creating wounds through loneliness. He feels impatience as he can never find anything different.
The singer then realizes that despite his feelings of loneliness and loss, he is not the only one who is struggling. He recognizes that others are also hurting and that he is not unique in his suffering. He acknowledges that others are living well and also crying. The song implies a sense of community and the importance of recognizing that we are all connected and struggling with similar emotions.
Overall, the song Los Demás is an introspective and reflective tune about belonging, identity, and suffering.
