Antonella Elia, who turns 60 and celebrates them like Barbie

I’m a Barbie girl in a Barbie world: the famous phrase from Aqua’s hit has always been a perfect fit Antonella Elia. Sixty years and the demonstration that a young and youthful soul is absolutely reflected on the outside.

Many years ago, as she herself said last summer in an interview with Republic, Corrado said to her: “Keep acting stupid, that will be your success.” And Antonella, clever and stubborn, followed the advice of a great TV personality, thus managing not to disappear from the showbiz. In the hearts of those who grew up on bread and It’s not Rai, it seems incredible that that eternal little girl with the blond bob blew up on November 1st 60 candles. Antonella is identical to decades ago and time doesn’t seem to pass for her. Always “on the mark”, she organized a megaparty for the important birthday, bringing together many VIP friends at the Saxò Ristorante in Rome. The theme? Barbieof course!

Wrapped in a one-shoulder dress with totally pink plastic doll-style draping, the showgirl spent an explosive and all-pink evening. Next to her is her inseparable partner for years, the 49-year-old actor Pietro Delle Piane and many well-known faces from the entertainment industry: Miriana Trevisan (former colleague at the time of It’s not Rai) Vera Gemma, Maria Monsé, Nathaly Caldonazzo, Pupo, Adriana Volpe, and Roger Garth among others, all surrounded by the magnetic and dreamy world of Barbie, super pink and bubbly, including the multi-tiered cake and balloons. Toasts and laughter galore for everyone.

“My birthday was fantastic… thank you friends for all being with me… on this beautiful day” wrote a beaming Antonella Elia, thanking those who shared this important birthday with her on Instagram. A come en rose for her who, at 60, still has a long way to go.
