Meanwhile, the Sanremo Festival is near and Amadeus distils new novelties from time to time. On Friday, at the Sanremo Casino Theater, he hosted the evening that determined the six winners of the young people who will rightly participate in the song festival that begins on Tuesday February 7, 2023. And in addition to the six young winners on Friday night, Amadeus revealed the titles of the songs in the competition. All 22 big names were present, thus communicating their song. With a yellow. Madame’s song should have been titled “Puttana”, as confirmed in the interview given by the artist Lettura (Corriere insert) on newsstands on Sunday. However, at the moment of the on-stage announcement, Madame said: “The good in the bad.” Title changed on the run? From Madame herself? Or did someone force her to come on stage? Did you want to avoid controversy? Did Rai’s top management force the election? The reasons are currently unknown, the reasons are highly confidential. Nobody confirms or denies. Traditionally, the Sanremo Festival has its first controversy even before it starts.
Madame – pseudonym of Francesca Calearo, born January 16, 2002 in Vicenza – is a singer-songwriter and rapper who became famous in 2018 for the song “Sciccherie”. He then took part in the Sanremo Festival 2021 competition with “Voce” and won the “Lunezia Prize for Sanremo” for musical-literary quality. Madame had already made headlines when she declared herself bisexual and was attracted to both women and men. A year ago, she was spotted kissing a girl on Instagram, but Madame quickly clarified that it wasn’t her friend was: “It’s my business, everything you see on social media is all shareable material: friendships, trips I take, things I find. But everything in my private life is private. It won’t be yours because it’s mine, it’s my heritage.”
At midnight and forty the verdicts: great trepidation among the 12 young people. Only six of them go to Sanremo. The winner of “Sanremo Giovani” 2022 was Gianmaria with the song “The city you hate”. The six that passed and will perform as big ones at the festival are: Shari (she will sing «Egoista»); Colla Zio (“I don’t like it”); Gianmaria («monster»); Sethu (Lost Causes»); Will (“Stupid”); Olly («Dust»).
The Sanremo evening had started with subdued Amadeus and Gianni Morandi: they were very saddened by the news of the death of the great Siniša Mihajlović. “As a coach, he’s always invested a lot in young people,” said Amadeus, sharing a clip of the coach’s participation in the Sanremo Festival singing with Ibra, Fiorello and Amadeus. An unexpected farewell, because the warrior had fooled us into believing that he could win his fight against leukemia. A moving and touching moment.
Then the parade of artists began, who gave the titles of their songs. It begins with a 53-platinum artist, Ultimo, who will sing “Alba”; To follow Tananai who will propose «Tango». Madame comes, who has announced her “Good in Evil” as a Sanremo song, then the competition between the very excited young people begins: there are twelve.
