Living the Italian dream

I personally think that one of the best options to practice listening skills when learning a language is youtube. Finding a channel that's about things you´re interested in helps to expand our vocabulary we're actually going to use one day (I remember cramming kanjis for words like "a triptych" or "a racket" that's used only in whatever japanese game it was). So, to practice a regular, conversational storytelling in Spanish, I usually watch videos of Javi Alonsox. Lately, I found one of them called "My italian love story", and because it was my day of practice, I watched it and it was one of the best videos he's ever made.

At the beginning he explains that they went to Roma on a trip, and while his class was looking at the famous Trevi Fountain, some handsome italian guy approached him and asked if they had met before. They started to talk and flirt a bit, but unfortunately, his class was about to move on, therefore, he apologized and rejoined his group. Apparentely, the handsome italian guy didn't want to let their new relationship go and that's why he followed Javi and during the free time he chated Javi up again, asking if he wanted to explore beautiful Roma with him. He agreed and had a lot of fun, but something was not alright. Random people were looking at them in a strange way, giving them presents etc. Finally, the handsome italian guy revealed that he was a singer and Javi looks exaclty like his singing partner - Isabela, but he's nothing like her, because she's awful and can't sing. (At this point I started to suspect something)And here's where the story goes totally wild, Javi fakes an illnes to sneak out to meet our italian friend, he basically lives his italian dream, faking being a famous singer. He's even asked to perform with Mr.Handsome, and, of course, he says yes. And here comes the plottwist. Javi meets the real Isabela, which warns him, explaining that she left Mr. Handsome, because it's him who can't sing and uses playback, that Mr. Handsome wants to use Javi to damage her reputation. Javi was devastated, but together with Isabela, he made a plan to end Mr.Handsome and Deceitful's career. Isabela turned off his playback and, after he ran away crying, goes out on stage and sings with Javi, while the crowd goes wild. 

Many people who watched that video, didn't realize he actually made one of the gratest trolls in his youtube channel's history. He actually told a whole plot of The Lizzie Mcguire Movie as if it was his own personal experience, with a total pokerface. Just at the end of the video, when the button "subscribe" shows up, we could hear him singing the song that Isabela and Lizzie were singing together: "What dreams are made of". And I trurly respect him for that troll.
