A-Class Status

Valentino Rossi is not only a star on the track but also off the track. The reigning MotoGP worldchampion attended the famous Venice International Film Festival.

Jaeger Le Coultre, a famous watchmaker, organised a party before the screening of Hollywoodland. Valentino Rossi stopped in at the party and this didn’t go by unnoticed.

Valentino Rossi proved that he has the status of an A-list movie star, as the party organisers had to call in the help of local police to control the crowd of enthusiastic fans.

The festival director, Marco Mueller, is a fan of the MotoGP star as well and took the opportunity to meet Rossi. Marco Mueller confessed that he always watch him race on TV whenever he can find the time for it.

Apparently Valentino Rossi didn’t talk to the press, but he did say that if he was asked to make a movie with Brad Pitt, that he better bring his girlfriend Angelina Jolie with him!
