Real Madrid: Shilling For Spain
via poprosa.
Our newly founded ‘Marketing Ploy of the Week’ award must go to the Spanish government, who have cleverly utilised their capital’s most wondrous sights in a new video to promote tourism. Yes, several Real Madrid players, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos and Sami Khedira have been dressed up, blown out, made up and thrown in front of a camera in order to espouse the virtues of their adopted home city.
In this work of epic genius, we find out (among other, fabulous details) that Karim Benzema likes tapas (although he may have been a bit scared of it at first), that Sergio Ramos is being perpetually stalked by an awkward flamenco guitarist and Sami Khedira has hearing problems.
How the hell we would’ve got through the week without this, we don’t know. It doesn’t bear thinking about.
[...] bullshit. No way Messi was at a party with girls. WSN WAG of the Week: Xoana Gonzalez coming soon. Real Madrid Stars Promote Tourism to Madrid Obvious marketing ploy to get you to come visit Madrid. We now know Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio [...]

The spots here are now probably overflooded with girls hoping they see one of them
That's it I'm off to Spain!
Wait .. what? No Pipaa??
This video makes me want to order the next plane to Madrid thogh <3 HALA MADRID
This video makes me want to order the next plane to Madrid.
Can i get a ramos for free next to that please?
Need to find my passport now…..this just made my long tired day so much better
i like real
But where is Pipita?:-(
Speaking of boosting tourism Fernando Llorente and Javi Martinez (and Aitor but he's not in this video) do wonders for Blibao. (They are mostly talking about Athletic but at 3:45 and again at the end Javi speaks a little English in preparation for the Europa League!) Beyond Cute!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ5mEj_Qpwc
Omggg ur sooo lucky!!! Spain definitely looks and sounds beautiful!
man it's ah-may-zing! the next time i go i'm definitely going to try to go to Barcelona!
if i had one complaint about Madrid it would be the fact that there were no beaches!
otherwise it was a blast! i'll be older next time so i'm definitely going to hit some clubs!
the good ones generally open at around 1:00 a.m though lol!
man those people know how to live!
Awesome! *off to book flight!
Ole indeed Mr. Ramos, yes yes I would like to Ole you, thank you very much….
Whoever is the head of tourism for Madrid is a marketing genius! This makes me want to go to Madrid SO bad, not just because my boys are all so damn fine, but the ad really just makes it seem incredible.
Now on to important matters – Sergio is too cute! Of COURSE he mentions flamenco. Kaka is also looking particularly sexy here. And when he mentions taking Luca to the zoo – be still my beating ovaries.
the best looking club in the world !!!!!!!!!! sometimes i think the real madrid management purposely pursues the best-looking footballers…how can all the players be so attractive?! damnnn. benzema. have my babies!
I agree completely. There is maybe a couple of players on Real that aren't quite up to par, but every single one of them in this video are just so cute. Kaka is beautiful I almost died! Sergio is too cute. Marcelo, I love. Of course, Cristiano is gorgeous. I've seen them all in person, except for Ozil and Kaka, and I love Real. The most beautiful team in the world! Now, if they can claim more titles in Spain, then they have it all.
*How could I forget about Xabi?!!! The man is insanely beautiful! Wowww!
omg they actually do , i remember reading how perez didnt wanna sign Ronaldhino, cuz he was unnattractive.
Ramos was so awkward. I need to start learning German soon (and Spanish because mine sucks). For some reason as of lately I’ve been hating on Kaka, I can’t stand even looking at him. I’m glad that he wasn’t called up for Copa América.
Sign me up! Tapas and Flamenco dancing! I agree that the tourism board would be overloaded for the summer with ladies if they had filmed this without their clothes on. I'm here to help
As if i needed another reason to go to SPAIN..thank u beautiful boys for encouraging me to come to this beautiful country! I loved this vid, it was soo nice of how they gave an outlook on such a beautiful country! I will DEFINITELY go there (once i get some money).
oh! and the sheesha bars were super fun!
Oh Germans, with your problems pronouncing the "v". I luw you.
Wisiting Spain sounds iwwesistible, no?
yes it's funny….but if you listen carefuly you will hear that Özil even speaks german very different …. like a foreigner.. a turkish boy….
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love it too… he just sounds so sexy!!! wao i will visit him anytime… anytime!!
)
how freakin' adorbable, sexy, gorgeous is Kaka?!?! I want him.
All I see is Kaka. Oh my goodness Ricky. So nummy and adorable.
just being with in the same zip code as these MEN already makes me want to visit Madrid…
:):D
NOW living on the same street …or … better yet the same house would definitely make me want to live there permanently!
Karim Benzema <3
Just come to me Karim, and I'll make you all the tapas in the world.
Ramos flamenco love is refreshing ole ole for the hotness provided in this video I am willing to overlook what Khedira is wearing too :p. You know what this ad is more like a stalking guide for us than promoting tourism Good job Madrid!
when Ramos said Ole with that gorgeous smile… it seems like the world just stopped….AWWWWWW! my heart is melting…. <3<3<3
Thanks a bunch Kickette!
:):D
Love it! Sergio’s buttery velvet voice saying Ole…My perverted mind went straight to bed! Oh, his sexy swagger kills me!
I am planning a visit to Spain, and a visit to Madrid. ; )
Haha, as if Özil! Museum? Theatres? Come on!
Yes I will totally visit Madrid! And Ozil is enumerating where we will go for our date :p :p
Seriously, my heart skipped a beat!
I pretty much love Ramos' "Olé" <3
Aw cute ad! Oh I would have liked to to hear Ramos speaking english
hehe
ME TOO! I live for that … it's so fumbly and awkward and I love it.
Oh Kickette ~ once again you make my day and everything is right with the world! I am going to get addicted to this video and I'm especially excited because *today* I start a new post as a TAPAS CHEF at a brand new restaurant … I think it's a good sign!!! I haven't yet been to Spain but thank you again, this really feeds my obsession and my "Spain on the brain"!
All i can say is 1:07 … did i just melt all over my chair? omg, benezema could recite a parlimentary speech and i would still melt all over my chair!
He could read me washing machine instruction manual and I'd happily sit there and just listen to him <3
LOVE IT! Book me a seat on the next flight to Madrid!
What, no Iker?
But it's not like the Kickette Army need convincing to get our butts to Madrid. All they need to provide are their addresses, and we're there!
Oh, and Kaka. Of course his thing is the zoo, where he goes with little Luca. How predictably adorable.
Yeah right where is iker? But again Ramos should have mentioned visiting him as a favorite thing for him to do in Madrid and mentioned his address no?
lol second point–brilliant!
"the ham is great" ROTFLLL idk why i found that so funny XP
