Engelbert Humberdinck made a rare public appearance with his daughter Louise Dorsey on Monday.
The 89-year-old singer – who has recently been embroiled in a feud with another crooner, Tom Jones – was spotted at a screening of My Mom Jayne in Los Angeles.
He was joined on the red carpet with his daughter Louise Dorsey before watching the new documentary from actress-turned-filmmaker Mariska Hargitay.
The legendary singer stepped out in a classic black suit with a white dress shirt, a black and white striped tie, black belt, black pants and black shoes.
He was joined by his daughter Louise, who wore a unique black shirt with a white stripe and shoulder cutouts.
She accessorized with silver earrings and a silver necklace, along with a silver ring while holding her phone on the red carpet.
Born Gerry Dorsey, the singer adopted the stage name Engelbert Humperdinck in the 1960s and exploded in popularity with hits like Release Me and The Last Waltz.
Louise is one of four children who he shared with Patricia Healey, who he was married to from 1965 until her death in 2001.
The crooner made headlines in November with an exclusive interview with Daily Mail where he opened up about his decades-long feud with Tom Jones, who he called, ‘a pr**k.’
‘Whatever he thinks is fine with me, but I would never repeat those words to him,’ said Engelbert, famed for tunes like The Last Waltz and Release Me.
‘I was brought up to believe that civility costs nothing – my father taught me that – and if you’re not going to say anything good about somebody, don’t say anything at all.
‘I have never done that and I never will,’ he added.
Reminded that he has previously been reported as saying Tom, 84, had ‘lost his voice’, Engelbert responded: ‘I never made that criticism, no sir.
‘I have always said the man is a great talent with a great voice and that is why he is still around today.
‘I’ve never said anything derogatory about that man, never.’
The two men are forever linked thanks to their parallel careers. Both were managed by Gordon Mills who suggested they change their names to find fame.
Gerry Dorsey chose the moniker of an obscure German composer while Thomas Woodward picked the far simpler name from a Henry Fielding novel.
Tom had the greater success with smash hits like It’s Not Unusual and What’s New Pussycat?, but Engelbert wasn’t far behind on both sides of the Atlantic with songs like Les Bicyclettes de Belsize and Am I That Easy to Forget?
Both were sex symbols with long-standing marriages, Tom married Linda Trenchard aged 16 when she became pregnant, and Engelbert tied the knot with Patricia Healey in 1964.
Sadly, both are now single again. Linda died of cancer in 2016 while Patricia died the following year after a long battle with Alzheimer’s.
