Nina Dobrev and Shaun White get pranked

In an Instagram post by The European Kid, also known as Aris Yeager, a social media comedian, he pranked Nina Dobrev and Shaun White during their trip to the luxurious St. Moritz in Switzerland for the fashion brand Moncler. The video commenced with Nina Dobrev and Shaun White enjoying a meal at a table. Aris Yeager boldly approached the couple, claiming, “Guys, this spot was reserved for me,” and questioned them about missing his name card on the table. Bewildered, Nina Dobrev and Shaun White began searching for the card, with Nina even offering Aris the two empty seats beside her.

However, Aris Yeager, asks them who they are and then hilariously pretends to go fetch the manager, saying, “It’s rude. Just impolite American people,” all while Shaun White and Nina Dobrev remain perplexed. Shaun, seeking clarification, asked Nina, “Who was that?” to which Nina nervously laughed and replied, “I don’t know.” The caption to the prank added an extra layer of humor, stating, “I guess Louis hasn’t seen Vampire Diaries @nina 😳.” While the prank stirred the internet with laughs, let’s find out why all the stars were in Switzerland this week.
