Enrique Iglesias Delivers A Thunderous Performance For 'MTV Live Georgia'

By Michael Lopez

Sorry Atlanta residents, the MTV Live Georgia special did not pass through the Peach State. Rather, it was a massive overseas concert centered in Batumi and broadcast to millions of Russian music fans. Tr3s fave Enrique Iglesias headlined the event, which featured local acts like Eldrine and Sofia Nizharadze.

"Thank you to all the fans at MTV Live Georgia! I had a blast!" Iglesias enthusiastically tweeted after the show.

Kicking off last Tuesday at 7pm, the Live Georgia event went into the wee hours of the night and drew a live audience of over 20,000. Millions more watched on TV as Enrique took the mic and belted out tunes like "I Like It."

Set on a gigantic outdoor stage, the concert featured huge Jumbotron screens and plenty of bombastic pyrotechnics. For Enrique, it continued his exotic summer touring schedule. He had previously played Australia and several dates in Europe.

Now Iglesias is set to return to the U.S., but with some high-profile Tr3s faves by his side. Starting in September, he'll be back on the road with Prince Royce and Pitbull!

Are you looking forward to Enrique's fall tour? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.
