Julio Iglesias is vowing to never again play in a casino owned by Donald Trump given some of the leading Republican 2016 presidential candidate's positions on immigration.

Rolling Stone magazine reports the legendary singer recently referred to the bombastic real estate mogul as a "clown" and added, "I will never again play in his casinos."

Though he was actually born in Spain, the magazine noted, Iglesias titled his most recent album "Mexico" and has explained, "I don't want to hurt immigrants all over the world."

Since announcing his run for the Oval Office this summer, Trump has derided Mexican immigrants as "killers" and "rapists," adding in a statement, "What can be simpler or more accurately stated? The Mexican Government is forcing their most unwanted people into the United States."

In response to Iglesias' comment, Trump shot back, "Good, I don't like his voice or his performances anymore, anyhow."

Iglesias insisted that his stance is not about attracting more attention for himself, but rather standing up for a cause he feels is just.

"I'm maybe the biggest Latino artist in history," he said. "If you think that I need that now, that's wrong."

Despite the backlash some of his comments continue to generate, Trump has stood firm in his position. He continues to insist that if he were elected president, he would build a wall along the U.S.-Mexican border, and he recently boasted that from the White House he could rid the U.S. of some 11 million current immigrants in less than two years.

"We can have a great and beautiful wall, we'll have our border, and guess what? Nobody comes in unless they have their papers," he recently said during an appearance on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert."
