Those few moments of madness on stage, if on the one hand they gave rise to a surge in share and even the front pages of the newspapers, on the other, however, they cost a complaint for damage.
The Prosecutor of Imperia, in fact, has opened a file to shed light on Blanco's unscheduled event, during the first evening of the 73rd Sanremo festival, when he kicked the "rose garden" set up on the stage of the Ariston theater.
Blanco had been invited to present the new single "L'Isola delle rose", but at a certain point in the performance, after midnight, he started to go into a rage, kicking the flower arrangement.
"I couldn't hear in the headphones, I couldn't sing," the artist later explained, adding:
"But at least I had fun, music is that too".
The unexpected show has unleashed an uproar: starting from the florists of Sanremo, who felt stabbed in the heart, to continue with public opinion.
"Now you calm down and let's settle it, if you want you can go back to singing later", was Amadeus' answer.
In the end Blanco no longer sang, but behind that "header" a national case arose.
And next to the image of him, Blanco as he kicks wildly causing red petals to fly everywhere, is the photo of Gianni Morandi 'armed' with a broom and common sense making the rounds on social media.
The objective of the Prosecutor's Office is to clarify how the facts went.
Because Blanco, who then apologized with a poetic post - "Flowers are falling, Ariston/ Flowers are breaking, Ariston/ The curtain is falling,
Ariston/ I put you in tears/ like my mum, Ariston / You saw me as fragile as a child (…)" - she should have rolled around in the roses, just like in the song's video, and not made meatballs of them. "It wasn't a prepared gag – explained Amadeus -.
Blanco is aware that he did something that he shouldn't have.
He did not ask to be understood but to be forgiven". While waiting to clarify the matter, and for Rai to explain what the agreements were, his name was entered in the register of suspects. The day after the incident, Codacons had formalized a complaint against the artist. "Blanco will be called to compensate the damages caused to Rai and to answer for the crime of damage - reported a note from the association -.
Beyond the vulgarity of the gesture and its inappropriateness,
