Il Volo fan and college student. Her experience following Il Volo
Ciao everyone!! It’s been a crazy couple weeks for me! Since it’s close to April Fools I thought I’d tell you about a prank my roommate and I pulled on our friend last year, it involves Il Volo. But first, since many of you haven’t heard the story, let me tell you what happened with Gian, Ignazio, and my hair at the meet and greet, lol.
So after I got my picture with the guys, I turned to Ignazio and was thanking him again and hugging him and just pretty much freaking out. Well, my back was to Gian and my longer than waist length, very thick hair caught his attention. Gian started touching my hair and saying how amazed he was with how long it is and he accidentally caught my already loose ribbon on his sleeve and completely untied it. Ignazio smacked his arm and said “Yes yes, she has beautiful hair, you have your own beautiful hair! Leave hers alone!” Ignazio then turned me around and retied my ribbon and then hugged me again. I still have that ribbon and am never untying that bow! Hehe!
Now for my April Fool’s Day story! My roommate and I last year had a friend who we could tell liked the guys, but she wouldn’t admit it to us. She’d say she liked their music but she wouldn’t admit to liking them like we did. Well when the pictures of the guys with Pope Francis got posted she finally couldn’t contain herself anymore and started gushing about how adorable Gian’s smile was. This gave my roommate and I an absolutely hilarious idea. We printed around 80 wallet sized pictures of Gian, mainly of him smiling but of course we included many speedo ones as well! She had to work the entire morning of April Fool’s Day, and had Chem lab with me in the afternoon. So that morning my roommate and I snuck into her room and tapped pictures all over it. On her door, in her fridge, in her closet, above her bed, on her walls, on her desk, everywhere! We even made streamers of pictures that we hung just inside the door! We had three friends hide in her room to video her reaction and I pretended to just be going to her room with her after we got back from class and videoed from that angle. Her reaction was hilarious!!! She was basically attacked by the streamers as she walked in the door and then she was laughing so hard she could barely look for the other pictures! It took her almost a week before she finally found all the pictures we’d hidden, lol. It was one of the best pranks ever!
One more quick story for you all, I showed the Grande Amore video to two more of my friends and both were literally almost drooling over Piero and Ignazio and when Gian’s mask got pulled off at the end and he smiled both of their jaws literally dropped and the one said “That’s it, a Spiderman kiss is now on my bucket list. He’s so sexy!! How is that even possible?!?” And both friends told me the other day that they have each watched the video at least 20 more times on their own.
I hope you guys enjoyed my adventures again! I have tons and tons of homework to do and I think I’m getting sick, so until next time, Ciao ragazzi!! Ti voglio bene!
Danielle, I loved your stories! Thanks so much for sharing them. Would love to see your videos of your friend entering her apt.!! Good for you for converting friends into IL VOLO LOVERS! 🙂 Good luck with your studies!
Danielle, I too love, loved your stories and would love to see some pictures and hear more stories when you have them. But you have to remember “Gianluca is mine!” lol
So Danielle, Sweetie, how much for the ribbon?
🙂
Hahaha! It’s not for sale, lol. It’s staying in my box of special Il Volo things!
What wonderful, wonderful memories, Danielle, and I, too, would like to see your pictures. Ignazio is a wonderful and caring young man! ( No worries, Marie, Piero is still MY man.)
Don’t you mean OUR man, Allene?
Thank you so much, Danielle, for sharing your story of meeting the guys. I have such a picture of Ignazio tying your hair ribbon and smacking Guanluca!
Take a bunch of vitamin C and get some sleep, take care.
Ok young ladies! Where are the pictures and videos?
Daniele, I hope you’re over your ailment. Thanks for the story. 80 pictures of Gianluca doesn’t sound like a joke to me! I’ll take ’em!
Hi Danielle, love that story of Ignazio smacking Gian’s hand. Yes, there those out there who will not admit they like IL VOLO. Their loss. How’s school dear? It sounds like you’re having fun with your friends. Have not connected with you on Twitter for awhile. Miss you. Good for you on converting your friends. Our guys have matured so beautifully. Their voices, especially Ignazio, have become so rich and powerful. I love these guys. Gianluca is still my personal favorite. Take care sweetheart.
What a wonderful story Danielle! Ignazio is such a love!!! All three are very special young men!!! Love the April Fool’s joke that is so fun & charming! Would enjoy any pictures also! Look forward to the next chapter of your college activities! GRANDE AMORE!!!
I love this and especially since it is TRUE! You are all amazing. Thank you so much for sharing it. I also have a story (printed here last here) and I treasure every moment of my encounter with the boys.
This was so much fun to read Danielle !!! I would love it if you plastered 80 photos of Gianluca in my house !!!! I just adore him !!! You had an amazing experience with the guys !!! They are so adorable !! Take care of yourself. I will be looking forward to more stories !!
Danielle, your story brought back memories of my own college days WAY back a long tme ago!! We did some fun things like that! You are an excellent recruiter for il Volo! Keep up yhe good work! Keep that ribbon, no matter how much Marie offers you!! Let her get her own ribbon!!
If 0nly, Dot!
And… you are no help. I’ve been in college too. The brat may need the money.
Danielle, Sweetie, do not read the above.
Danielle, I loved your stories. I can just picture Ignazio slapping away Gian’s hand.
They really do act like brothers sometimes, don’t they?!
You make a very good ambassador for the guys–keep up the good work!
Whoa, Danielle! If you were my roomie in college, I would have been having so much fun that… I probably never would have graduated and taught high school for 31 years. 😉
So much fun! Thanks for the joy!
