Life and career
After his debut on the big screen, at age 13, in the commercial flop Palabra por palabra, Rossello did not perform again until he began college. He trained in dramatic arts at IUNA while studying for a degree in history at Di Tella. He made numerous appearances on television shows in Argentina in the early 2010s, such as Casi Angeles, Enseñame a vivir, Sueña conmigo, Secretos de amor, Víndica and Herederos de una venganza. However, his fame came from posting short videos to the Internet.{{Cite web|url=https://viapais.com.ar/argentina/167298-entrevista-grego-rossello-el-pibe-del-millon/|title=Entrevista: Grego Rossello, el pibe del millón|date=2017-07-20|website=viapais.com.ar|language=es|access-date=2019-11-03}}
Grego became the first comedian in the history of Argentine stand-up to present his show at the Gran Rex, which he did twice. After "a lot of effort" and several videos on Instagram, he finally reached the TV screen, where he has presented ESPN Redes (Argentina) since 2016.{{Cite web|url=https://www.espn.com.ar/video/clip/_/id/2991132|title=Los accidentados debuts de Grego Rossello - ESPN Video|date=2017-02-22|website=ESPN.com.ar|language=es|access-date=2019-11-03}} However, he says his journey to "success", a word he uses in reference to himself with caution, was not easy.
