Roberto Brasero is one of the best-known faces on Antena 3. Since 2005, the meteorologist has presented the daily forecast on the main Atresmedia channel, with a special style and accompanied by a personal blog where he shares his stories and weather curiosities. A beloved and energetic figure, he is not ashamed to participate in different initiatives. However, the last one in which he has been involved has not been his business.
The presenter has issued a statement on social networks after discovering that he had been the victim of a viral joke. A well-known TikTok user has spread through different media that today was Brasero’s birthday, causing the one from Talavera de la Reina to receive more than 3,000 congratulations. He has not escaped the hoax, not even the chain that uses him, falling into the trap through his social media profiles. A joke that the communicator has not taken badly.
All explanation is under a publication by Carliyo el Nervio, a tiktoker that is very close to adding 800,000 followers on the platform. Although his jokes are not the subject of his content, they have worked well for him: “Last week I made up that it was Kiko Rivera’s birthday and everyone went to congratulate him and he came out to deny it. Well, yesterday it occurred to me that we should do the same with Roberto Brasero, the one from time. Almost 3,000 congratulations were given to him”.
Carliyo was in charge of opening the initiative by publishing Brasero’s false birthday, to which thousands of people fell believing it was true. However, the meteorologist did not expect the large ball effect that was caused. And it is that even one of the official accounts of Antena 3 was the victim of the joke and congratulated his weatherman. “Congratulations… but be as you are, a solete”, they wrote. Until the end of the day the presenter has not been able to get out of the way.
“I was waiting for the day to end to thank you all for your congratulations. Well, the truth I have not found out until now. And the truth is that it is not my birthday. But okay, thank you very much. It’s March 31, so if you remember, I’ll wait for you here, ”she published. Similarly, Carliyo el Nervio reacted positively to the results. After Kiko Rivera’s joke, this second one has asked her to add the content to her channel.
“I am amused that he is wasting time in his life to say that it is not his birthday. It makes me very happy and it will become a weekly section,” the tiktoker explained in his profile. An example of the success of this type of prank, which, despite not containing any malicious intent, ends up going viral, to the point that those involved must intervene and stop the dripping of congratulations.
