Alba Parietti replies to Lorella Cuccarini on Sanremo 1993: “Telling this story sounds like an attempt to ridicule me”

Sanremo is Sanremo and the controversies that are born on the Ariston stage (and surroundings) sometimes return. The last case has triggered a sentence of Lorella Cuccarini, that in a long interview with Corriere della Sera On the eve of his 60 years (he will turn them on August 10) he retraced his career and also remembered some behind the scenes, including that of Sanremo 1993, when he joined Pippo Baudo at the Festival while ad Alba Parietti The conduction of the after -festival went.

She was indelicated, made controversy in the newspapers to reiterate that we were two first -ons on par. I was sick: “Alba, if you have a problem with me, let’s talk about it” “, the words of Lorella Cuccarini who have unleashed the reaction of Alba Parietti.

Lorella Cuccarini, (almost) 60 years old, noticed in 1985 to a convention of ice creams by Pippo Baudo: «My original sin was taken the place of Heather Parisi a Fantastic”

«At the time I was the” network woman “of Raiuno, at the helm of Sunday inwhile Lorella held the same role in Mediaset, leading the Sunday afternoon. Brando Giordani and Fuscagni wanted me to support, after the success of the year before, Pippo Baudo on the Ariston stage, but wanted Lorella, relegating me to the after -festival that I accepted goodly because I like challenges, “he began Parietti. The presenter immediately comes to the point: “I was made to understand that my presence was not appreciated in any of the five evenings of the festival – an anomalous fact, because those who lead the after -festival has always been invited at least one evening. I was systematically excluded also from all press conferences with Lorella, while Lorella was invited to the afterFestival. In the meantime, an image of me was built as “the bad witch” and Lorella as “Snow White”. Pippo mi zettiva, dominated me and that game at the massacre created the success of the after -festival. It was not easy but a professional must be able to manage the difficulties ».

Alba Parietti specified that he accepted the role that had been designed for her, so much so that the program had a great success of listening. And again: «I remember that, on a rare opportunity, during a press conference from which I had not been excluded, Lorella got up in front of all the journalists with a smile and make maternal:” At least we hug us “. A gesture that, given the circumstances, found frankly hypocritical ». Parietti then underlined the uselessness of returning to the subject after a long time: “I would never have told this episode, because I am used to having respect for the roles that are entrusted to me – also that of the” bad witch “. I therefore find curious that, after thirty years, Lorella pulled this story out, especially considering that at the time our roles were absolutely joint. Tell it today, in the way it does, It sounds almost like an attempt – absurd – to ridicule me. I’m sorry because it is a colleague that I have always admired and esteemed a lot ».

The rivalry between the two, at the time, was also very built, with that vice common to a lot of press to always contrast women, especially when they are different from each other. As mentioned by Alba Parietti, in fact, she led Sunday inwhile Cuccarini was the landlady of Happy Sunday On Canale 5 together with Marco Columbro (the 1993 edition also won Telegatto). Parietti’s career was equally winning and It was easy to contrast thema diversity exploited also in that edition of Sanremo.
