Sanremo 2021: the announcement of the duets and the controversy for Barbara Palombelli, on stage with Amadeus

The fourth woman to walk the stage of the Sanremo Festival 2021, alongside Amadeus, will be the journalist Barbara Palombelli. Together with her, Elodie, Matilde De Angelis and Naomi Campbel. “I received a phone call from Amadeus … and I will be in Sanremo with him on Friday 5 March!”, The presenter wrote on social media, recalling how much Sanremo is home and family, a bit for all of us. “It is our memory, they are my father and my mother who watch TV with us children … this year, then, will be a special edition! The thought will go to all those who have suffered and it will be even more important to show a united country that will be able to find in music, as it has always been able to do in its history, a great energy to be reborn !! Thanks Amadeus! And thanks to my wonderful company, Mediaset, which authorizes me to go! ».

And it is precisely on this last point, namely the fact that Barbara Palombelli is an established Mediaset television face, that the controversy broke out. «Among the information professionals of #ServizioPublic, this year, we have not found others equally deserving. At this point I expect the Telegatti award ceremony on # Rai1. Obviously under full contract, ”Riccardo Laganà blurted out on Twitter, followed by the councilor Rita Borioni. “Were Botteri, Sciarelli, Bortone, Giandotti not doing well?” Evidently the Rai journalists are not up to par according to the top management of Rai ».

At the moment Amadeus has not responded to any of the controversies arising from the announcement, after all it is not the first time that a Mediaset face plows through the coveted stage of the city of flowers. And if it is true that the controversy, like any self-respecting Sanremo, never fails, it is not lacking either the great duets.
