You can have decades of experience in Argentine rock, hundreds of shows under your belt, and sky-high attitude, but when Leandro Paredes shows up at the same party, all of that can vanish in a second. That’s how Joaquín Levinton told it, as he decided to open his heart and share the incredible anecdote he lived with the Boca midfielder.
In a brutal reality check, the leader of Turf confessed how the world champion completely crushed his ego just with his presence alone, leaving him ridiculous in front of the mirror and proving that musical rebellion sometimes just isn’t enough.
It all came to light during his appearance as a judge on the reality show “Es mi sueño,” where the musician took advantage of a chat with Jimena Barón to have the whole studio bursting out laughing. According to the singer, that night he had arrived at an exclusive event feeling at his absolute best.

Leandro Paredes.
He had put on his best clothes, was walking with his head held high, and was completely convinced he was the undisputed king of the place. "I went to a party all dressed up, saying, 'I’m a genius, I look amazing!'", the artist recalled, remembering the blindness of his own vanity before the disaster.
But that bubble of overconfidence burst into thin air when the footballer made his triumphant entrance. Paredes not only walked into the room with the weight and untouchable aura of someone who lifted the Cup in Qatar 2022, but he also did it wearing an impeccable and exclusive Armani suit. Levinton himself admitted that the outfit was truly stunning and created an enormous gap between him and any other guest, immediately outshining everyone else who was unsuccessfully trying to get attention on the dance floor.
Such a display of European elegance was a lethal blow to the self-esteem of the creator of "Magia Blanca." Cornered by someone else’s good looks, the musician looked for visual refuge and came face to face with his own reflection, starring in the funniest moment of the night. "I look down, see a mirror, look at myself and said, 'No!' I was a cockroach, my God, what a disaster," Levinton blurted out with total brutality and zero filter, setting off a roaring ovation of laughter among his fellow panelists.
After the elimination from the Torneo Apertura, the media started a flood of fake news surrounding the world champion who wears the blue and gold shirt. From the lie told by journalist Leonardo Paradiso on América TV about a move to Inter Miami, to claims that he had fallen out with president Juan Román Riquelme.

The world champion wants to help Boca reach the Copa Libertadores round of 16.
Although Leandro Paredes knows these media operations are commonplace at a club as big as Boca, he is upset by everything that has been said. However, he is also focused on Tuesday’s match against Cruzeiro, which is being treated as “a final.”
