the entertainment editorial team
As expected by TvBlog, Rai rejected Fagnani’s idea of inviting Fedez (who is still in the hospital with ulcers). Viale Mazzini: “No to paid guest accommodation”. But behind the no lies the performance in Sanremo and the controversies at the Concertone on May 1, 2021
Fedez will not be a guest in the new edition of “Belve”. As expected by TvBlog, Rai did not agree to participate in Francesca Fagnani’s show. And it was the journalist herself who confirmed the veto via her Instagram stories after the leaked indiscretions: “The only thing that matters now is that Federico is fine.” Just a clarification. As for the news regarding Fedez’s participation in Belve, Rai management did not consider it appropriate. I do not agree with this decision, nor has “Belve” ever taken away anyone’s voice. Maybe it won’t end like this,” Fagnani wrote.
A few hours later, Rai sources tried to attribute the no to Fedez’s presence to a simple “company decision”, without any censorship intention. “Belve is an entertainment program and not a journalistic program.” The company’s decision not to approve Fedez’s paid participation has nothing to do with politics, which had no interest in the case at all, other than that to exploit the affair following the publication of Fagnani’s post. So it’s not censorship, it’s just a company decision.”
An attempt that comes, however, after the political controversy has already exploded widely – opposition parties accuse the governing majority of wanting to “silence” non-aligned voices.
There is no connection between the decision and Fedez’s health
The reason behind the decision is not the current state of health of the singer and judge of “X Factor”, who is currently in hospital due to internal bleeding due to two anastomotic ulcers, but rather the stormy relationship with Viale Mazzini. More precisely, the “rivet” of public service seems to be related to the events of the Concertone on May 1, 2021, when the rapper sued the then director of Rai3 Franco Di Mare, who had accused him of “manipulating” the recording of a telephone to have a call for support for Rai having suffered an attempt to censor his speech against homophobia.
The Sanremo 2023 issue also probably weighs heavily behind Rai’s decision, in particular the kiss (and simulated sexual intercourse) with Rosa Chemical and the Milanese singer’s freestyle against two representatives of the Fratelli d’Italia (undersecretary of state Galeazzo Bignami, whom Fedez ripped off). . a photo in Nazi outfit and Family Minister Eugenia Roccella, who was attacked on the abortion issue) on the second evening, an appearance that forced the then head of prime time, Stefano Coletta, to distance himself on behalf of the television audience.
The malaise of the last few days would have “eliminated” the problem of a possible guest appearance by the rapper on the Rai2 show, at least for the time being.
The invitation last February
Fagnani’s invitation to Fedez
it was released last February while the rapper was busy with the Sanremo Festival. During this time, Muschio Selvaggio, the podcast of the singer and (ex-)boyfriend Luis Sal, content creator and YouTuber (who abandoned the project in March of this year), had “moved” to the Riviera, where he would be there for the entire duration of the podcast The singing competition was broadcast on Rai2 at 6:45 p.m. and on RaiPlay from 7:00 p.m. Francesca Fagnani was among the guests who came to the studio. Fedez asked the journalist and presenter who she would like to interview. Fagnani replied: “You, but you didn’t really say no to me.” You said to me: ‘Let’s see’.” “If you go to Belve – Fedez replied – you can’t come out well.” Then one Twist: Fedez had backed out and agreed to take part in the broadcast.
The kiss with Rosa Chemical and the crisis with Chiara Ferragni
Just at the last Sanremo, Fedez was at the center of controversy because of the kiss he exchanged with his colleague Rosa Chemical on the Ariston stage on the last night of the festival. Kiss that caused a deep crisis for Chiara Ferragni and which the two explained in detail in the behind-the-scenes episode “The Ferragnez: Sanremo Special” available on Prime Video.
Not only. Live from the Costa Smeralda cruise ship, Fedez had violently attacked two Italian politicians, the deputy infrastructure minister Galeazzo Bignami, of whom he showed (and tore up) a photo in Nazi uniform during a party in 2005, and the family minister, birth rate and equal opportunities Eugenia Roccella is in quoted in her freestyle with the lines: “Unfortunately, abortion is a right.” I didn’t say it, a minister said it. Sometimes I spew nonsense from the rooftops, but I don’t do it at the taxpayer’s expense. The singer referred to the words of the minister’s guest on the show, “Today is another day.” During the interview, host Serena Bortone asked Roccella, “Is abortion part of women’s freedom?” The answer: “Unfortunately yes, unfortunately yes, that’s not a good thing.” And I didn’t even think it was a good thing when I was one Law fought. 194 is a good law, a very balanced law. But women are not happy about abortions. Today it seems that this is women’s highest right. This is a way out and certainly a thing that ensures freedom from unwanted motherhood. The final escape from unwanted motherhood.”
