What a mess with “it’s always lunchtime.” What he said was so unacceptable that even the top leadership of Rai intervened. Absurd.
His joke was supposed to be just a tongue-in-cheek joke, but instead it caused such a stir that it caused such a stir Even Rai top management had to intervene to calm the situation. Unfortunately, this was necessary after the tragedy of the last few months.
Who knows if the chef's apology was enough to silence everything. What he said involuntarily was so strong that even Antonella Clerici could not appreciate it. She was always a cheerful woman who understood jokes, but she also didn't like what was said.
“Well, having said that. It's not nice.“That's the comment he made after hearing the chef's words. He didn't handle it well at all.
Not to mention a Rai Summit who commented on the entire matter with the following words: “The exchange of words on Rai1's morning show, hosted by Antonella Clerici, is unbearable. I hope that professionals like Antonella Clerici are always ready to intervene forcefully to stigmatize such statements.”
An unfortunate joke in a difficult moment
This wasn't meant to be a joke about rape culture, but after it What has happened in the last few months is more than normal that such a joke will no longer be tolerated.
After the events surrounding Giulia Cecchetin and her murder, everyone is a little more cautious when dealing with certain topics. As we increasingly try to combat rape culture and gender-based violence, lately even a joke like this isn't tolerated anymore. Apparently the chef didn't do this on purpose.

The Chef's Unfortunate Joke
“And then you do one important thing: stun the prey“. This is the unfortunate joke that made everyone turn up their noses. It was prepared by the chef Sergio Barzettiwho during a playful speech about wine that she gave together with Andrea Amadei and Antonella Clerici herself, he thought about responding to his colleagues' jokes in this way. Unfortunately, it only caused enormous chaos.”
All because of a glass of Prosecco on the kitchen counter, which is usually used for cooking but can be an excellent way to break the ice and let loose a little at a romantic dinner. Unfortunately, however, the chef used the wrong words to say something that could have been funny.
