Luis Fonsi On Justin Bieber's Spanish, 'Despacito' Hitting No. 1 | NBC Latino | NBC News
Man, Luis seems like such a chill guy. Smooth accent, great personality, humble, what else?
Destiny Dimension yep his accent is beautiful
Belleamaro Dunno who that is. Care to elaborate on that?
Destiny Dimension
That's his ex wife. They married and looked very happy together but unfortunately she was diagnosed with cancer and supposedly he left her because she wasn't as attractive as before (due to chemo). This happened like maybe 10 years ago? Well anyway, that's what she stated after the divorce, idk if he confirmed or denied it though.
I still love the song though lol, I work out to it everyday 😂
Belleamaro Cool. Thanks for the info.
No wonder why Spanish is the second most spoked language around the world.
LUIS FONSI a much respect to your so overflowing humbleness, generosity and pure genuineness,Such a kind hearted guy and a great personality.😍😍😍 🙏🙏
LOVE❤️❤️❤️ ALL THE WAY FROM INDIA 🇮🇳.
i don't mind the justin bieber version but i LOVE the original!
The song Despacito not need Justin Bieber
Antonio Ortega it didn't need any type of remix at all in my opinion!
Totally agree
I listen to this song with Justin Bieber. This is really popular, but I do agree the original version is a lot better
same here
When my son heard this song for the first time, he kept on repeating it over and over. OMG, this is truly a great great song, been waiting for this moment after lambada and gangnm style. Despacito is no doubt the greatest song so far this year..
I heard this song for the first time on "The Voice". I had no idea JB had any connection to this song. I love the song.
you heard it on the voice because thanks to the bieber remix the song went to #1 in the US 2 weeks before that and luis fonsi and daddy yankee got asked to perform it on the finale, wouldn't have happened other wise :)
kiks dot Glad it did, or I may not have heard it. Of course it is now stuck in my head.
Gerri Sutton Is #1 for 4 weeks now
Handsome 😍
that sadful moment when you can't understand Spanish but u already made despasito your 2017 favorite song ...😍😍😍😍
I am sure you can find a translation. The song is very nice. If not let me know and I will happily translate it for you. You'll love it even more. Greetings from London
In UK....this song is hot!!!! I love the fact that this song is making people to sing in Spanish....Maravilloso!!!
Carolina Cadenas glad this song came along 😍 makes me dance!
Thanks we are glad you like the USA music and artists.
Carolina Cadenas klp
I India too
Carolina Cadenas Same in INDIA dear
you are a orgullo latino. Love for you and family
thousands of respects from Canada for Luis Fonsi taking a "special needs" singer like justin under his wings so gracefully. it takes courage to stand up for those who were born so special. You are a shining example of what an artist should be. Thank you
I actually teared up when he gave props to J-Beebs Spanish skills. So sweet. You can tell Fonsi is a super nice guy.
I am from India
I can't understand the song despacito
But the song sounds really cool
Just Awesome song😘😘
Luis fonsi
Keep it up👍👍
Awesome stuff!!! This guy is so humble. He deserves all the success he's had so far and all that's coming.
We love you Luis, I can see the tranquility in your face, and the humbleness that made you as a better person... your song is no.1 hit in the Philippines and everyone is singing that in my country, some made their own cover and versions from famous Filipino artists like Darren Espanto and Julie Anne San Jose..Your song made as jolly everytime we sing it, it always relieve stress..You're such an inspiration and a good-looking guy... love love love avid fan from Manila, Philippines..
Such a humble guy..Totaly in love with his personality
Luis, soy una abuela despacito, y me encanta! Muchas gracias por crear esta hermosa canción! Y también hice un comentario en una de las canciones que le permitió a Justin Bieber para colaborar con usted. Yo hablo español, no con fluidez, pero me encanta el idioma porque es tan romántico! Y tú, mi amigo, es un hombre muy humilde y compasivo. Gracias por Despacito! Espero ver más música en tu viaje! Enhorabuena por todos vuestros éxitos y bendiciones a su bella esposa e hijos también.
No. 1 in India 😍😍
I'm English
Sohal Gupta yeah

Luis; you know what? With all of the anger, and lying, and horrible things going on in the world, your song has brought us hope. I know that sounds strange, but it is a joyous celebration of life. I am a 68 year old woman and I cannot get enough of this song. And yes, I have translated it into English...........still a celebration of life. Muchas gracias amigo.
Jan Wood That's beautiful✴ you're awesome young lady!!!

Hope for a better future. How sad that you think this is funny. The world is a mess. Anything positive is welcome. Jerk.
Jan Wood "68"

I being an Indian will say one thing that this song is Best enjoyed when it is listened in Spanish only, though you don't understand the language nor u can speak well, but it is favorite for all.
i've been studying spanish for so long but i never listened to the music because none of it really appealed but despacito did it for me
Same here!
Im happy he spoke in english
He's just too much more than perfect! ❤️
Lemme tell you ! I live in Thailand and this song is being played everywhere !
Luis es increíblemente talentoso! Él es tan humilde y compasivo que es tan obvio con su compromiso de St Jude's Hospital y su bella esposa e hijos! Enhorabuena, Luis, Justin y Daddy Yankee! Soy una abuela y me encanta Despacito! Espero más música de Luis!
" Justin bieber' despacito " WRONG, it's Luis fonsi's song not Justin bieber
Gl Ba exactly ❤️
Gl Ba THANK YOU my friends say justin bieber
JB's spanish not his song
True
Gl Ba
His voice at the beginning 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This song wasn't even on the top 50 and then all of a sudden justin sings it and the song goes up all the way to number 1
Enhorabuena, Luis, por ser tan humilde y para la colaboración con Justin Bieber en la canción, Despacito! Soy una abuela, y no puedo conseguir su hermosa canción de mi cabeza! Le deseo todo lo mejor en su viaje y su impresionante éxito. Le agradezco mucho para crear esa bella y romántica música!
I love despacito
This song is relly famous and rocking in 'INDIAN'.Thanks Lusi Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and justin bieber for such a great song in both Spanish and english version.
luis fonsi como has cambiado; tus canciones baladistas jamas las olvidare .
Lucero Tabra No te preocupes. El nunca dejará de cantar baladas. Despacito es solo UNA canción. El disco tendrá hermosas baladas también.
Yet Mel.
Lucero Tabra Es igual que Bruno Mars, que es sus primeros discos variaba de géneros y 24k Magic es R&B de los 90s. Ellos están evolucionando 😀
Yo no creo que hay verguenza en crear una cancion que puede hacer bailar a personas de todos paises. Good for you, Fonsi!
se llama evolucionar.. para no morir
love your song from philippines
soy de china y me gusta muchisimo esta cancion
Luis fonsi love from india ❤❤❤❤
Dude, now you are the superstar all over the 🌏..... Love you from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Despacito rocks everywhere,even in India
Ur so cute luis fonsi
I like original song by fonsi
Luis Fonsi is such a cool guy. So glad that good things have come to him and DY.
Despacito best song everrrr. i love you Luis Fonsi !!!
Im a fan of justin bieber , but luis fonsi voice makes everyone feels good .. great singer 👍🏾
awesome song!
love Purto Rico!
He is so cute ❤️❤️❤️
I think Im in love...
Amo Despacito
Usually not into reggaeton, but I really enjoy this song, it's very well made. Congratulations!
Amazing song , widely played here in Egypt. Greetings from the Middle East.
1:08 - 1:18 omfg how that one guy can have all the talents😲😲😲😲😲😲 luv u justin nd also loving despacito. #bieberfever #belieber4ever
Your song is on no. 1 in Pakistan
0:06 fonsi voice so amazing!
I prefer the original one tbh ❤❤
Me too. Justin’s voice makes me want to stand still.
beautiful man, so talented and such amazing feeling for rhythm!
Makes me happy and proud that Puerto Rico native is MAKING HISTORY since none other than MACARENA!!
I love how humble he stays and gives credit to Justin Bieber instead of back-chatting him. He knows the song was big before JB came on, and that's all credit to him and Daddy Yankee (the video already had more than a million views before JB) but JB did make it bigger in the U.S and that's simply because of the fame he has and there's nothing wrong with that. the way i see it, you can listen to JB remix or the original 🤷🏻♀️. Now you have two choices😌. I'm beyond happy for the recognition luis fonsi and daddy yankee are getting worldwide because in the latin music industry they're already big names!
#proudlatina
Despacito es hermoso, y debido al hecho de que Luis y Daddy Yankee optó por colaborar con Justin Bieber, se ha convertido en una canción que nos une a todos en un hermoso camino! Siente el amor...Despacito!
I find it cool how this guy can speak fluent English and sing in fluent Spanish.
Lots of love Luis...😊😊
He is so good singer omggg
This song made me love Spanish music! I love the version without Justin Beiber looool
I love you Luis💖
When he sings his voice is amazing but when he talks is like MINNI
Let's be real Justin Beiber song will never make it as big as the original
Yup Justin did well in remix and didn't spoiled the song , English added like gold to it, And so this Spanish song was good listening in Spanish only. So it created history and is world's best song.
Love Puerto Rico!!! ❤ If you haven't been, go!!!!
I love Luis fonsi
when the first time I heard despacito, just listen the first intro the music really caught my heart then I kept listening and I love it 💓💓💓
Despacito for Grammy next year!!!
so proudd to hear and download this song before it became tooo famous!!
They make it great!
Despacito is Luis Fonsi's song, Justin Bieber heard it in a club when it was already a hit, he knew it was a special song so he called Fonsi to sing a little part at least, Bieber wanted a piece of the cake, period.
I love you Luis fonsis❤️❤️

You are very goooood singer
Lo que no menciona nadie en la entrevista es que fue gracias a Colombia que esta canción ahora se escucha en Rusia, Inglaterra, etc. La razón por la que se hizo famosa en estos países fue porque a Justin Bieber se le ocurrió hacer el remix después de asistir a una discoteca de Bogotá y ver cómo la gente enloquecía con "Despacito". Al día siguiente grabó su versión, allí mismo en Bogotá. Así que como ven fue Colombia que catapultó esta canción en el mundo no hispanohablante.
