She became famous as a Madonna impersonator, but her performances as a dancer were not convincing. She was disqualified by Dancing with the Stars’ Paola Barale but the spotlights didn’t go out. A departure that no one expected since she started as a favorite, but the chapter of dancing is not over yet. “I hope in consolation. I’m afraid I’m a diesel.” Her teacher, Roly Maden, had called her “slow to learn” and she didn’t really agree with that phrase and, live on Domenica In, she brought it up with the sound of “better not to speak ” to silence. Now the porthole that illuminates her is that of the theater where Paola is appearing in “If you have to say a lie, say it big” and from the stage she also relieves her teacher. “Roly had an unfortunate exit, but I think it’s because of his poor command of the language.” But since it takes skill to lie, barking doesn’t come after trying to find conciliatory words towards the Master. “Some slowly learn a sauce in three days and others a language in 20 years”.

Paola Barale, from the beginning until the TV break
Blond, always very blond, her looks (haircuts in particular) have always been among the most copied, Paola Barale was a true icon. She decided to return to television after years of making her absence felt, and she decided to do so on a talent show that put her to the test. “The expectations that there are of me are linked to an image from many years ago that no longer represents me: I still am, but I’ve grown up.” The showgirl, who appeared to viewers alongside Mike Bongiorno and did not make Maurizio Costanzo known, Corriere is told without a filter.
She started out as Miss Ciccone’s double, and although she never felt represented, it helped her a lot. “If Madonna hadn’t existed today, I would have become a physical education teacher. She was unique then, not to mention that she danced very well. It wasn’t easy for me but I made it because at the time my mother was tipping me 5,000 lire a week while she was giving me 1 million (lire) a night to play Madonna.” And the resemblance was obvious , a red lipstick was enough to turn the Fossano showgirl into the queen of pop stars. «Thanks to this work I took my first plane. I found myself with the other doubles, Michael Jackson, Grace Jones, we were a group. My mother sewed my costumes. But once a businessman from Paris, a fan of Madonna, called me to get out of a cake and there I said enough».

The future
Then came television and everyone wanted the Made in Italy Madonna by their side. The stop after 25 years, because now Barale no longer finds us in the television programs of those years. “If you don’t follow the herd, it will be difficult.” And she, who as a little girl would pick her ears alone in the elevator because her parents didn’t want her to, may have shed that rebellious soul, but she will never lose her lightness because Paola Barale is so beautiful.
