Friends 21: all crazy for Gabriele Rossi

Despite appearing for a few minutes during the afternoon of Friends 21 aired on February 27, everyone seems to agree that Gabriele Rossi deserves a place in the permanent cast of the school of Maria De Filippi regardless. Called to judge the students of the dance circuit in the Modern category – the other two colleagues at his side were Emanuel Lo for Hip Hop and Massimilano Sodini for Latin – Gabriele Rossi, 33, actor and choreographer, managed to impress himself in his memory of viewers not only for the beauty that has led thousands of users to crowd Twitter with memes and impromptu declarations of love, but also for his polite and ironic way of occupying the stage and to judge honestly and truthfully the performances of the boys who are struggling to get the jersey that will lead them to the evening.

For all those who remember Gabriele Rossi in fiction like The honor and the respect And One step from heaven wondering why it was ad Friends to judge the dance, it is logical to explain to them that, in reality, Gabriele was born just as a dancer. He began to take his first steps at the age of 7, winning 8 years after a scholarship with Maestro Mauro Astolfi and, subsequently, the competition Dance Yes which will take him to Merce Cunningham School in New York. From there the return to Italy, the training at the school of the Teatro dell’Opera in Rome, the victory at Rieti Dance Festival first as best soloist and then as best choreographer and a career as a dancer together with the etoiles of the Rome Opera: a passion, that of Rossi, who managed to join that of acting on the occasion of his participation in Carla, the TV film directed by Emanuele Imbucci dedicated to Carla Fracci in which Rossi lent his face to the great Mario Pistoni.

In short, the artistic potential is all there, without counting the stage presence, the reassuring smile and the ready joke. So why not try to bet on him by entrusting him with a seat, if not at the Evening as a judge, at least in the daytime of Friends as a consultant or professor? We believe in it. Gabriele Rossi, familiar to the Canale 5 public for having participated in the very first edition of Big Brother Vip, has all the credentials to carve out a niche within the talent show of Canale 5, a hotbed of talents who have come to perform on international stages thanks to the careful and loving guidance of the professionals who followed them along the way. Rossi, companion of the winner of the eleventh edition of X Factor Lorenzo Licitra and former flame of Gabriel Garko – label that seemed to obscure its merits for a moment to put it in the meat grinder of gossip – has a lot to say and to give, and we hope that Maria and the production of Friends realize it before Milly Carlucci takes it off.
