Hugo Chavez: Popular in Spain!
People told me that Hugo Chavez would become a popular guy, even outside the borders of Venezuela.
And they were right!
The king of Spain’s recent undiplomatic outburst at the Venezuelan president has become a ringtone hit across Spain.
An estimated 500,000 people have downloaded the insult featuring the words “Why don’t you shut up?”, generating a reported 1.5m euros ($2m).
King Juan Carlos asked Hugo Chavez to “shut up” at a summit in Chile last week after the president said Spain’s ex-PM Jose Maria Aznar was a “fascist”.
Branded mugs, t-shirts and websites featuring the row are also profitable.
