Heather Parisi, the controversy against Amici and why she chose to pick a fight with everyone

A little sad that a professional like Heather Parisiwhich rightfully entered the history of television when talent was king, decided to put aside her artistic skills to transform herself in the polemical character at all costs. It’s been since Rai offered her a return to prime time with Beloved Enemy which Parisi has, in fact, decided to light a controversial face which over the years has affected everyone: from Lorella Cuccarini, the friend-enemy with whom she chose to share the stage, to the manager Lucio Presta, without considering the misleading and at times inaccurate statements regarding vaccines in the times of Covid. Now, along with the many issues on which he had objections, another is added: the attack on the organizational machine of Friends, with reference to when she was called to judge the children of Maria De Filippi’s school in the evening phase.

In an interview with Everyday occurrence, Heather Parisi in fact implied that the authors of the program told the judges what to say, questioning the seriousness of the talent show: «I put my face to it, always. I can’t keep quiet, I’m spontaneous. This is why I was wrong with Friends. I didn’t understand that in talent shows you have to recite a script: instead I’m a loose cannon capable of only acting myself. I was out of context there. I was very sorry: I was among young people but I wasn’t able to follow the script”, said Parisi, stirring up yet another hornets’ nest that led Mediasetat the clear push of Fascino, the production company owned by Maria De Filippi, to intervene.

«Mediaset has mandated its lawyers to act in the appropriate places against the statements contained in an interview given today by Heather Parisi, in relation to the program Friends. It is unacceptable that the regularity of a program is publicly questioned which for years, under everyone’s eyes, has allowed young Italian artists to express and improve their talent in a clear, serious and demanding way”, was the press release issued from Mediaset after the release of the interview. At this point you have to ask yourself something: why did Heather Parisi choose to abdicate her role as a professional to become one hundred percent a polemicist? Why did he decide not to propose any more ideas related to his work and started spitting venom against the colleagues with whom he worked? That’s what displeases her, and that’s why we hope that in the future she understands that she has much more to say about herself than about others.
