All eyes were on Camilla Belle when the video for Enrique Iglesias' new song Heart Attack premiered this week.

The video has already received more than one million views and has all the ingredients necessary to become a success, telling the story of heartbreak between two characters played by Enrique and America actress Camilla.

Camilla was known for her three-year relationship with Spanish tennis player Fernando Verdasco, who is now dating Enrique's sister Ana Boyer as revealed in HELLO!'s sister magazine HOLA! last October. 

The release of Enrique's new video, which was recorded in Santa Barbara, California and directed by Colin Tilley, comes amid growing rumors that his 12-year relationship with Anna Kournikova is on the rocks.

Neither Enrique or Anna, who met when she starred in the video for his 2002 hit Escape,  has commented on the situation.

Camilla is every inch the screen siren in the video, conquering the camera with her striking looks and dressed in a black dress with a plunging neckline. 

The Brazilian-born American actress, who has worked on films such as 10,000 BC and Push, already has experience in the music business having starred in the video for Lovebug by the Jonas Brothers.

The video for Heart Attack tells the story of a relationship that ends with a painful breakup which leads Enrique to consider his life from the edge of a bridge.

"It's something that has happened to us all," he said. "And is a story that everyone can relate to."

Camilla, who is 1m 71 tall, loves to watch soap operas with her grandmother Deborah, who she often sees when visiting her family in São Paulo. In fact Camilla's name was given to her by her mother to honor a star of a Brazilian soap opera.

Camilla has previously dated singer Joe Jonas, and was rumoured to be in a relationship with Robert Pattinson months before splitting from Fernando Verdasco in 2010.
