Even the most “uncomfortable” questions.

Where do you find the energies?
“I was born like this, I’m very hyperactive. I don’t like going on vacation, in fact. More than a week I can’t get away from it because I always feel the need to do things, to get moving, to feel useful ».

This hyperactivity brought her good, as she was the most searched female character on Google in 2020.
“It was a joy to know.”

Why do you think so many people have searched for it on Google?
«Because I am a marvel! Seriously, I think it’s because I’m a very special character, and people are looking for information about me. “

What makes it special?
“Perhaps the fact that I am very sincere and do not seek answers: for me everything is normal and nothing is. That must be why children like me: they don’t see me as a person capable of doing harm ».

We will find this sincerity in the series Electra and the rest disappear?
«I would say yes, because between artist and person there is no difference in my case. If that had been the case, I would have changed the name and chosen a more artistic one. The name has always been a bit of my bad luck: they immediately understand who I am ».

Do you agree if I tell you that you have managed to free yourself from this bulky surname?
“Thank God, yes, even if it was certainly not my fault. I’m still working on it, it’s all a work in progress, but for now I would say yes ».

What will we see of his life in the series?
«The year of change, the year of marriage, but also the one in which I lost my horse. You will find my passions, periods of stress, a bit of everything ».

How long did the cameras follow you?
“Enough, several months. I don’t remember how many, however. “

We will see her struggling with household chores. How are you doing?
«Very well, I’m a great precision woman, once I start everything must be so clean as to eat on the ground. I do a very meticulous job ».

At some point in the series we will see her choose servants.
“There is a scene where I do a casting to look for the caretaker: they called them servants, but in reality they are caretakers.”

And how many do you have today?
“No one at the moment because I haven’t moved home yet.”

During her bachelorette party, driven by nervousness, she preferred silence. Is this something that often happens to you?
“It depends on the situation, sometimes I just want to be with myself.”

What makes her angry?
“The infamous people, the ones who take your energy. I am very naive and often people take advantage of it: if a person treats me well I generally trust me because I take it for granted. I trust more in what I feel, rather than in the things that others tell me to warn me ».

Can you recognize those people today?
«It takes time, I go to the skin a lot. If there’s no feeling, I’m not there trying too hard ».

Now that she is a married woman, does she still have the fake profiles to map her husband’s fans on Instagram?
«No one tries with him, I never had any doubts because he never gave me reason, he’s a horse with blinders. In fact, I’ve never been jealous because I know he’s a golden boy. Every so often, however, I enter Instagram with another profile to be able to follow certain people without creating gossip ».

Gossip has always followed her.
“That’s why I need to stay on track and see what certain pages publish, I just don’t want to do it with my profile because I only use that for work, there I only follow people who work with music.”

Now she is a married woman: did you feel different the day after the wedding?
“No, nothing changes, just paperwork.”

But the ceremony went as she wanted.
“It couldn’t have come better. It was a beautiful day that I will always remember ».

In addition to marriage, many goals have arrived this year …
“But there were also many bad luck, like the death of my mare which was everything for me: I’m still trying to metabolize the grief, I carry it with me for a long time, it’s not easy”.

His mare, Lolita, had had it since she was little, right?
“That’s right, it was given to me at a difficult time and it saved my life. When I separated from her I realized that I had to deal with my first real bereavement: I had never experienced one before. It’s been two months since she left, but it’s as if everything was still fresh ».

What particular period did you live when they gave it to you?
«I don’t feel like talking about it, I just tell you that I was not very well. I was 11 years old ».

Do you have fond memories of adolescence?
“Yes, although I have removed everything since Lolita died: she was my adolescence. Everything is becoming dull in my memory, and it’s not a nice thing. ‘

At a certain point in your life you got on the “merry-go-round” of TV and success: what led you to throw yourself in?
“It was a challenge I found myself in. I knew I was interesting: at school, even without wanting to, I was the most popular, I think it was for the character, a mix of things. I got on that merry-go-round because I knew where I wanted to go. In some ways, on an unconscious level, it was a kind of involuntary marketing that brought me this far ».

Has everything you dreamed of come true? What is left out?
“A Grammy wouldn’t make me sick. One hopes for it, does everything possible, but I’m Italian: it’s difficult. Together with the satisfactions in music, I dream of taking my children to Disneyland one day and opening a beauty center, a clinic, any structure that allows women to feel good about themselves, in their stretch marks, in their cellulite. Another thing I would like to do in the future is to adopt or, in any case, do something for the children of Africa ».

In this regard, on Instagram he shared a post where he talks about “the luck of being born in the right place”.
“That’s why I try to be more and more grateful thinking about what I have: there are people who have nothing and who are happy. Seeing the smile of those children helps you to understand many things ».

Let’s talk about Sanremo: would you see a new competitor in the future?
“Why not? It is not something I would like to do every year, at most just another. Then, maybe, I’ll go back as an international star ».

Would you propose a piece with your husband?
“Who knows. Why not? Or why yes? ».

You owe a lot of your luck on TV. Will we ever see her again as a competitor or as a judge of something?
“As a judge I would like it because it motivates me to be in contact with people. As a competitor I should think about it because it always takes a lot of time. Staying inside a house for 3 months, for example, is something that keeps you dry, I could go crazy… ».

She was there at Big Brother Vip in 2017.
«And in fact I am crazy about it. In the future who knows. For now I only think about music: I am very Zen, I would like to do what I like. For the rest we will see. Life is long, I still expect a lot of memes and a lot of satisfactions ».
