What Made Him Haute: Hailing from Spain, Alejandro Sanz has been making music history with a worldwide fan base and more Grammy awards than he can count on his two hands. In 2005, he appeared on Shakira’s album in the song “La Tortura”, which spent a record breaking 25 weeks at the top of the Latin Billboard charts. His latest collaboration, “Looking for Paradise,” with Alicia Keys was Sanz’s first English single, and followed his previous endeavor straight back to the top of the Latin Billboard charts once again.
What Makes Him Haute Now: 2011 is looking to be one of the most noteworthy years for Alejandro Sanz yet. He was recently nominated for a Grammy award for Best Latin Pop Album for his album Paraiso Express and is set to be honored by the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers on March 24 in Miami for the tremendous impact he has had on Latin Music. When he’s not expanding his ever-growing collection of honors and awards, Sanz will be headlining at the 2011 New Orleans Jazz Fest on May 1 among such remarkable musicians as John Legend, Willie Nelson, and Lauryn Hill. Just this past week, Sanz announced that he and girlfriend, Raquel Parera, are expecting a baby this summer. The newest addition to the family will be Sanz’s third child.
