I'm a reggaeton spanish singer and my manager just told me that it won't be a good idea for my wife to go to the shows because she doesn't want my wife to get mad if she see another woman grabbing or my dancer making dancing move on me. Plus I have to tae out my married ring off just to make my fans beleive that I'm single. I don't know wath to do. For my part I think she should go the the shows and she should stay backstage while I perform then after we could go home.

I think your manager is wrong....Tell her to talk to Daddy Yankee or Don Omar's manager and see if she's right into telling you what she's think is to be true....Your wife knows that being a celebrity comes with the price of having female fans....There are alot of male arists who are married and are selling music so lying about being marrying is lying about being who you are....If you are a good vocalist you are going to have fans whether your married or not....Your wife should accompany you as any other wife would their husband who is in the industry...Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and your family because you don't want to sell a image that people won't repsect.....

Your manager has ulterior motives behind what she is telling you. I can even see this why can't you?
Discus this with your wife you know her better than any of us.
Is she going to get upset if she sees fans grabbing at you?
As far as the ring goes that has got to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard fans don't care if you are married or not.
I would be watching your back if I was you something is not right with this manager.
Your wife may get a very big kick out of watching fans grab at you. Ask her.
Just tell her some of the worst things that you know of that could happen.
What you do is up to you and your wife not the manager her job has nothing to do with your marriage.

Yikes! I think you need to find a new manager..
There is absolutely no reason why your wife can't be there to show her support for you. Also, your marital status should have zero bearing on your success or popularity. Actually, I would think that it would be better for you, if your fans got to see your wife, and how happy you are together. That's a good thing, and anyone who would try to tell your otherwise.. is just being ridiculous.
There are plenty of successful, married singers out there, who don't go around trying to "pretend" that they're single.
You know what's right, and don't let your "manager" talk you into doing something like that.

As far as the wedding ring, it really isn't going to make a difference if you are married or not. If you have talent your fans will like you regardless, leave your ring on.
Most woman will say take your wife, but I'm going to tell you, you may be asking for more trouble then it is worth. Your manager is right, your wife may very well get mad seeing other woman grabbing you or trying to hang on you. Your wife may say she wont get mad, but you never know until you are actually in that situation what will happen. My husband is a rapper (along with our businesses we own together), and I have never gone to any of his shows, because I know for a fact I would be ready to kill some girl for trying to hang on him. If you are going to take her, make sure she is backstage were she cant see anything that goes on. You don't want to have her mad at you, for something you have no control over.

If you're wife's one of those insecure types, I'd definitely leave her at home. She doesn't need to keep tabs on you and she doensn't need to be there so she can let the chicks know you're taken. You're an entertainer and your market is made up of a whole lot of chicks. It's a part of the business and she should have known that from the get go. You know in your gut. If it's going to even a small chance there will be a problem, leave her at home with the credit card or something.
Now, if she's cool and secure and knows the ways of the business and what comes with it, I dont' see any problem with her hanging out backstage. No one has to know she's your wife. She doesn't need any banners. You and her know what's going on and so does your band and the manager, so that's all that matters. If it were me, I'd get off on watching chicks clawing at my man because I know he's coming home with me and that would make me feel like the Queen B.
Good luck with your tour.

Wifey or no wifey, she should go no matter what and if she wants to. That groupie s*** it is what it is..you be surprise how few performers that are out there and are totally true to their partners no matter how many men or women fall to their feet..That ring another figment that truly means totally nothing to another man or a woman..what truly counts is what you "reggaeton man" feel in your heart and soul towards your wife and do as you said "bring her and let her enjoy you and your performance from where she can get the very best of you"! Please do not allow these managers dictate your relationship especially when you are a performer. I personally attend all my man's shows, some rehearsals even recording sessions. I am there no matter even when he and I had our brief hiatus and that he has treasured the most about our relationship. It is very simple aside from loving him I love music.

Get a new manager. If you and you're wife have a healthy relationship it won't be affected by your performances, as they are just that, an act. You should wear your ring and quit pretending to be single for your fans. This stage lie could bring you troubles in the end. It sounds to me like your manager likes having you to herself!

I guess that would depend on the understanding that you and your wife have. If she knows that you have to take off your wedding ring and that these women will be dancing with you and is ok with it....then there is NO reason why she shouldn't be at the shows if she wants to be there.
Now if she's the jealous type then yeah, I'd discourage her from coming.

Goodness! Your spouse relatively demands to reconsider her angle. I believe what you probably did was once very candy. When you're married with youngsters its infrequent that anybody presents to maintain the youngsters so you'll cross off for your possess. What you probably did was once first rate candy and considerate. If my (now ex) husband had performed whatever like that even a million time over our 10+ years in combination, might be we could nonetheless be married. Good success, I wish she will get over her hissy have compatibility and realizes what a well guy she has.

Is this single playboy persona what you really want to portray to your "fans"? Do you really want them to think that is how you really are? Perhaps you need a new manager who will work with you to recreate your image as a singer into something respectable that you and your wife can be proud of. Many of my favorite singers are happily married and promote that fact. How can people respect your talent if they can't respect you as a person. You will gain a larger fan base with a new image! Good luck on your career...and your marriage.
