Domenico Nesci, a Bergamo in New York

3 commenti » News 3 Comments »

During the evenings of June to announce that no mention of the summer rapidly approaching, I happen to zap from one channel to another in search of something worth seeing. One of the most-ever for this time trash is - or rather was, since it ended last week - the pseudo-reality show "Shot at Love With Tila Tequila", a bullshit of biblical proportions, is so absurd plot for that content to be almost irresistible!

It is, in short, a game where a large crowd of layabouts, starlets and maladjusted / i try to win the heart of a young bisexual, whose stage name is precisely Tina Tequila. The broadcast MTV and I have no idea whether there has been a success or not, especially because the transmission was aired in the original language with Italian subtitles. Useful for me I want to refresh my rusty English, but I rather daunting - I say this without any arrogance - for the average Italian.

Well, one of the suitors - both men and women given the bivalent nature of the protagonist - is immediately distinguished by the style halfway between the peasant and our national vaudeville comedian: it is the Italian Domenico Nesci, whose popularity has become in a short time so disruptive - although it has been deleted by a resounding "Shot at Love With Tila Tequila" - MTV has decided to build a new transmission that he is the protagonist. The new program - already ended in the U.S. - is titled "That's Amore" and is a game similar to its predecessor, although this time, it's Dominic have to choose their partners among the many participants, a group of svampitissime girls arranged to do anything to win her heart. And the eye of the cameras.

Despite its Mediterranean feel it - that's incredible - a 27 year old from Bergamo, at least according to today's Corriere della Sera said:

In the United States is back in fashion "beef." At least according to the show for MTV - "That's Love" - ​​which ended recently in the U.S., while here it is aired on the network young (tonight and tomorrow, at 22.30 the last two episodes). And the calf has a name and a surname: Domenico Nesci, Bergamo, 27 years. Many newspapers - the New York Post ran the headline: "A popular acclaim, a star is born"-have dedicated articles and covers. Hail the new Italian male, the "Mastroianni of the millennium," as he calls it. At some point in his young life, Dominic leaves for Los Angeles is a waiter at a well known local star, and looks at all possible samples.

It was true glory? Posterity will judge. In the meantime you can find her (bare) biography on the official website of MTV. Happy reading ...
