Cristiano Ronaldo
circulate on social media and youtube (for quite some time now) some videos of football/soccerer Cristiano Ronaldo's appearance on a Japanese television show that, unexpectedly, starts playing a song with a very Brazilian and carnivalesque vibe (lol), thus causing a funny reaction on the part of the player.
You can see the full video below:
Another noteworthy event was the interview of CR7 (as the Portuguese ace is nicknamed) to a Japanese boy who was trying hard to ask questions in the player's native language.
At the time, Cristiano Ronaldo complained to reporters and journalists who were laughing at the way the boy pronounced the words. The football/soccerer said: “Why are you laughing? He's trying hard, he's doing really well."
You can watch this beautiful example of humility in the video below:
Neymar
Neymar was another player to be interviewed and also invited to participate in some audience programs in Japanese lands.
In addition to showing a lot of sympathy for the Japanese, Neymar was praised by a Japanese woman, who called him "Kakkoii" (かっこいい, which means "cool", "beautiful", "cute"), making the player laugh.
Neymar, in Japanese, is usually pronounced as Neimaru (ネイマール in katakana).
You can see the scene quoted in the video below (it's all in Japanese, so you should turn on automatic subtitles if you don't understand Japanese):
