He's always been a sex symbol. His looks are what he was known for.

Ricky Martin -- Livin' The Sold-out Life July 11, 1999
Ricky Martin -- the hip-swiveling global sex symbol -- is now among America's hottest concert draws as well.
All 12,000 tickets to his Oct. 21 concert at the Miami Arena blew out of outlets in mere minutes Saturday morning.
Tickets also went on sale for shows in Tampa, Dallas and Houston, where sales were also very brisk.
The tour, which launches in Miami, will be Martin's first since breaking through as a pop cross-over sensation with the hit single Livin' La Vida Loca.
The fast sell-outs were expected by some industry observers, but not all.
Ticket prices ranging from $35 to $95 are high for a first major tour, particularly one aimed at young fans.
