Joaquin Cortes to perform at Xcaret tomorrow night!

Described by the BBC as "the sexiest Spanish icon since Antonio Banderas", the 35-year-old Spanish flamenco superstar Joaquin Cortes has toured all over the world since he formed his own company in 1992. Cortes is a glamorous star with charisma aplenty. He is a dazzling virtuoso dancer with his fleet footwork, enhanced by the graceful movements of his arms and hands as well as his long flowing dark hair. His upper body is most vibrant and has a sculptural three-dimensional quality. His dancing is always full-bodied.

Cortes' private life is as much in the headlines as his dancing. His romances have included liaisons with the supermodel Naomi Campbell, Hollywood actress Mira Sorvino, and Mick Jagger's former lover Luciana Morad. Among his many fans are Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, and the actress Emma Thompson. According to the publicity material, Elle Macpherson called him 'pure sex'. And the Italian film director Bernado Bertolucci has written an ode to him.

Cortes has frequently been invited as a guest of honor to perform in movies, concerts, and award presentations. Pedro Almodovar cast him in his first movie role in "La Flor de mi Secreto" (1995). In 1999 Cortes participated in the 71st Academy Awards. He also performed with Jennifer Lopez at her concert in 2002, as well as with Alicia Keys at the Grammy Awards in 2001 where he surprised the audience by dancing tango instead. So if you would like to experience this charismatic performer your self, he will be performing at Xcaret tomorrow night!
