[1] The character of Johnny Tolengo, a Buenos Aires socialite similar to Isidoro Cañones, was created in the TV show "Calabromas".

In the movie, the character is a famous singer, dealing with extortions from the mafia.

Some songs like "Qué Alegría" or "Mis amigos los pibes" were adopted by soccer teams fans.

Johnny Tolengo (Calabró) is a tremendously successful and "glamorous" singer, idolized by children.

Upon his return from the United States, where he achieved the remarkable feat of winning the Oscars, Grammy, and Tony awards in a single season, he finds himself targeted by the mafia's extortion plot, coercing him into signing with a dubious record company.
