Comedian Susi Caramelo recalls the time she rejected Lionel Messi for party at his home
Susi Caramelo, a comedian, recalled how she jokingly declined Lionel Messi’s invitation to a party at his house since she didn’t know who he was. Susana Cabero, best known by her stage name Susi Caramelo, was a Spanish comedian, journalist, and host of the Movistar television programme. She has a significant internet following as well, with more than 528,000 Instagram followers
She described how she first met Lionel Messi in an edition of the Movistar programme “Ilustres Ignorantes” as per Mundo Deportivo. She said “Many years ago, I was dating this guy, and one night we went to Catwalk in Barcelona. I was in the VIP area, and I went to the bathroom. Suddenly, I ran into a boy, a girl, and a little kid. They were saying, ‘Well, Lionel, we’ll wait for you outside and decide what to do.”
“I finish peeing, and suddenly, the little kid is sitting alone on a couch. And since I’m very friendly and talk to everyone, I say, ‘Are you named Lionel? Like the pastries? Which flavour do you like: cream, whipped cream, or chocolate?’ So, I left.”
I just told him, I’m with somebody else – Caramelo
She continued narrating the story about the hilarious time she rejected Lionel Messi for a party at his home in Barcelona. She said, “I go outside, and at one point, I see this little kid looking at me and making funny faces, smiling. They start kicking us out, and as I’m leaving, the guy comes up to me and asks, ‘What are you doing now?’ And I told him I was waiting outside for the guy I came with and all that. When I finish the sentence and start going down the stairs, suddenly a crowd comes and they start saying, ‘Leo! Leo! Leo!’ They corner the kid, and I’m standing in a corner, thinking, ‘Who is this guy?’ And they tell me, ‘It’s Leo Messi, the best football player in the world.’ I say, ‘Don’t fu** with me! I just told him I’m with someone else’.”
