Loredana Bertè super guest of the first evening of the Sanremo Festival
, starting on March 2: this was announced by Amadeus, conductor and artistic director, in connection with Che tempo che fa from the stalls of the Ariston theater.
Bertè, explained Amadeus - confirming the participation of the lady of rock anticipated by the artist herself in an interview with 'Repubblica' - will propose "some of her historical successes and Daughter of ...", her new single to be released on 2 March for Warner Music.
An autobiographical, sincere and ironic piece signed by Bertè herself, with Pula and Chiaravalli.
At the first evening, Amadeus confirmed, "there will also be Naomi Campbell, the first painting by Achille Lauro, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Have I met Naomi? Not yet, only from a distance, is she on the other side of the world".
With the Milan champion there will be no talk of the derby won by the Nerazzurri: "We will act as if nothing had happened", joked Ama soon joined by his partner Fiorello.
After having defined the artistic director as "the swiffer of controversies", Fiorello cited "those that broke out about Barbara Palombelli, being a Mediaset journalist. But Sanremo - says the showman - belongs to everyone, like air".
"I thought of a woman who has many hours of TV, I think she has the record," said Amadeus.
And Fiore: "I want to waltz with her, the Rutelli in me will come out. Do you understand, Barbara?".
Then he made fun of the unusual atmosphere that surrounds the festival in the Covid era: "We went to the traditional Smiles and Songs party, unfortunately there were no smiles or songs. You don't know outside the Ariston: there was the Perseverance probe that was taking pictures! ".
"Last year - he said again - I was very agitated, this year now it is resignation. What will I do? I don't know either: I have to change my way of performing, I'll find out at the first episode when I go up on stage and say 'good evening', I'll tell him and the orchestra, this year Maestro De Amicis will be the chief claque ".
Jokes about the monstrous duration of the evenings ("This year there is no Dopofestival, but the After Dopofestival, which is Unomattina"), about the anti-contagion rules ("As soon as you arrive you have to study 75 pages of protocol: I arrived halfway I prefer to wait for the film ... "he says showing a" distance meter ") and on Amadeus's choices as artistic director:" Morgan is not there. Do you know how many he left at home? It's terrible, he became like this after last year's success : goes into the shops and says 'I don't pay' ".
Then he invents the names of international guests, mentions "Leotta's boyfriend, who is called like a tax haven, Can Yaman", then pursued by Amadeus he corrected himself, "that's not true, it won't be there, the song was bad and not took it. "
And he showed the smart pass, which "identifies how many hours are left until the next tampon".
As for the future, "last year there was Conte, this year Draghi, we won't do the third festival otherwise the government falls".
The connection with Fabio Fazio ended with an appeal to the public.
"It will be a historic Sanremo, a festival like this has never been seen", assured Amadeus.
Fiorello echoed: "It's the last time we're here at the festival, we're done, I hope you like it. We'll do our best, however it goes, it will be unforgettable."
Who then made a 'political' reflection joking about the future and about those who are already calling for an Amadeus-Fiorello ter: "Last year with Conte, this year with Draghi, we won't do the third or else the government falls".
