Women were attacked (verbally and otherwise). Unfortunately, this is not the first time such news has been heard. This time the victim is Emily Pallini, a content creator who has 884,000 followers on Instagram and 2.2 million on TikTok. On October 9, the girl, born in 2002, said she was attacked by a taxi driver. “Monday, today the day didn’t start well,” he began via Instagram story.
“I’m still completely speechless, I want to tell you that. I’m going to take a taxi, I had a big heavy suitcase with a few bags. The distance I had to cover was short, it must have been a 15 minute walk, even less – says Pallini –. As soon as I get into the taxi, I tell the taxi driver the destination and he, annoyed, asks me to repeat it several times. We walk, after a few minutes he says to me: “Were you afraid to cross the street?” I didn’t even understand what he meant and he said that the distance to cover was so short that it seemed as if I’m afraid to walk it. Aside from the fact that it’s my decision, I explain to him that I would rather take a taxi. Then he replies to me, “Ah, I thought you were afraid of all these black people I’m with.”
The screams and the suitcase on the floor: what happened?
Emily then goes on to say that she was amazed when she understood the topic. They are silent, they reach their destination and he stops on the bike path without making sure that no cyclists are passing by. He stops, she demands to pay with the card, and this is where an argument breaks out. “With an inappropriate tone of voice, he tells me that I have to pay in cash because he didn’t have a POS. I tell him I don’t have any cash, then he raises his voice and tells me to go and withdraw money,” she explains further -. I continue to tell him no, it is my right to pay by card. He tells me all this while shouting loudly. I get out of the taxi in a hurry, I was about to catch a cyclist and I apologize. The taxi driver gets out and starts attacking the cyclist screaming. He takes my suitcase out of the trunk, he hits the sidewalk screaming, so much so that Alessia (Lanza, another Tiktoker, editor’s note) was far away and heard the high tones of her voice coming closer to everything to understand.
“I didn’t have the willingness to do any videos or recordings. He became more and more aggressive and screamed more and more. I wanted to call someone, but I swear I was panicking. I repeated that to him over and over again. “I had the right to pay by card. Still screaming, he gets back in the car, slams the doors, drives off and says he doesn’t need my money. He left me there on the sidewalk. It’s not possible that a 50-year-old man, who could be my father, allows himself to negotiate like this over a girl, a customer… it’s a shame. I’m speechless and I’m very sorry because something like this should never happen. It all seems great madness to me.
Today.it asked the protagonist where exactly this happened and if something like this had happened to her before. She replied as follows: “Nothing like this has ever happened before! I don’t want to generalize because there are many honest taxi drivers, so I’m just referring to this specific person. It happened this morning in the center of Milan, I took a taxi to cover a distance that would have been about 1 km on foot.” When we asked her if any of her numerous fans had a similar experience with her, Pallini said : “Many girls have written to me and told me that something unpleasant has happened to them too, but as I said, it is me.” refers to individual cases of people who are crazy regardless of their profession!”
Who is Emily Pallini?
As I said, Emily Pallini is a young content creator. Younger people know and follow her since Amici. In what sense? Her ex-boyfriend, the singer and TikToker Michelangelo Vizzini, took part in Maria De Filippi’s talent show. The two separated and Emily then had an affair with another singer, Ludwig. However, it is unknown if they are still engaged. Originally from Ostia, she now lives in Milan, where she moved to Defhouse, the home of influencers. However, it appears that the establishment closed at the end of July. It is not known whether and when it will reopen. In any case, Emily continues her life between ballets, videos and brands that seek her out, appreciating her way of expressing herself and communicating.
