Genoa – The Festival of Black. Apart from the host, total black is on display at the Ariston. Amadeus wants to play his last cards, there are a few days left and then goodbye Sanremo. So off we go, after the metallic effect jackets tonight it is in a gold tuxedo with geometric patternalways Gai Mattiolo. Rating 6.
Loredana Bertè halfway between Wednesday Addams and Salir Mercury in Valentino reminds us that age is just a number and that if you have charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent (cit RuPaul) you are a winner (vote 8).
Presents The Three in a black glittery suit: he evidently wants to make the most of his gym membership money by showing off his tattooed abs. Again. At the end of the performance he goes to his mother, she is moved, “You are beautiful ma”. Score 6 and a half.
Alpha he's been dressed the same way for three days, but there's a reason. He wants his song to speak for him and not his clothes (Miranda Priestley would say “Pure avant-garde”). He even covered the shoe logo with tape. Directly put a pair with no logos to cover? 6 minus minus.
Introduces Maninni who took a liking to this gypsy mood, with soft high-waisted trousers and a lace shirt, all by Antonio Riva Milano and Salvini jewels. Ready for flamenco. Rating 7.
Fred De Palma (with an outfit that we prefer to overlook, also in black with white garter belt peeking out, perhaps stolen from Annalisa?) presents Bnkr44: they are the boyband we didn't know we needed, Beehive without Licia, they have a crazy look: tonight country, dressed like Sheriff Woody from “Toy Story”, simply adorable. Rating 7 and a half.
Clara she gives points to everyone in terms of style (and how good she is at leading!): the competition is about the songs but we know that it's not Sanremo without the votes on the looks and she has been surprising for three evenings. In black (but has everyone agreed?) by Andre Adamo with a one-shoulder cut, he takes out his glasses and wins the elegance award hands down. 8 and a half. Presents The French Saints again in Dolce&Gabbana. Twitter (or rather, X) is in a frenzy for the singer Alessandro, who is increasingly revealing. Calm, calm, calm: dreaming costs nothing, but his heart is already linked to that of Lidia Poet's actress Matilda De Angeles. I rate them 8 too.
Teresa Mannino in Roberto Cavalli by Fausto Puglisi, ready to be plucked like your butcher would do. Wide sleeves, feathers, transparencies. Ready to fly: 7 and a half. The second turquoise suit was less successful.
The Flight they arrive directly from the New Year's Eve party, all in velvet with shiny lapels (always Emporio Armani), they present Mr Rain in Fendi, this evening with a satin suit and lead gray pullover, with all due respect to all the armochrome artists in the world. 6 and a half
Gazelles with the inevitable cap and pencil in the buttonhole to get points at FantaSanremo introduces Rose Villain, in a tight black one-shoulder jumpsuit (by Balenciaga) and wet-look hair. 7 and a half
Raise your hand if you haven't googled “Sabrina Ferilli age” when the actress arrived on the Ariston stage. She is 59, for the record, and tonight in Alberta Ferretti in silk and velvet she is very elegant. 8 and a half.
In black with maxi slits and necklines too Alessandra Amoroso in Roberto Cavalli (welcomed on stage by Dargen D'Amico), increasingly towards the transformation into Taylor Swift. 6 and a half
Big Mama with the crown on his head he presents The Rich and the Poor: but how much fun are they having? We already see Angela, the legendary brunette, on Pride floats throughout Italy: a born drag queen. Their stylist Rebecca Baglini has created a deliberately camp style for him, this evening they replicate a look similar to that of the second evening, but in fuchsia. How can you not love them? And above all: how do you get “But not all my life” out of your head? Rating 8
Irama happy like someone who has just received a folder from Equitalia, dressed as if he were going to perform an exorcism, introducingand Angelina Mango delicious in Etro, styled by Nick Cerioni. Rating 8 +
THE The Kolors in imitation leather they act as Godfathers to Diodato, in a burgundy Zegna suit and shiny shoes. Try again, you'll be luckier. 6 minus minus
Mahmood and Ghali together on stage in 5 minutes they give us the most beautiful male looks of the festival: braids and style in spades. The first in Loewe, the second in Casablanca, with a stone-studded bolero, white socks and moccasins. A not-so-subtle tribute to Michael Jackson, complete with gloves. Twitter gone crazy, rating 9 both
Emma in velvet pink, in full Barbie-core, welcomes the Negramaros: given the time, Giuliano Sangiorgi is already in his pajamas, so he carries on. 6 minus minus
Annalisa she doesn't give up on the stockings, but at least she has abandoned the sexy nun cosplay and isn't in black: the combination of white shirt + sparkling microdress is beautiful. Fiorella proudly presents Mannoia in green velvet, but Amadeus hadn't banned that color from Ariston (along with purple?). So so 6 minus minus
RengaNek seem like the proud fathers of Sangiovanni, who stole the outfit directly from his friend Aries' wardrobe. 6
To close Geolier in silk pajamas like Sangiorgi, who presents La Sad, the nightmare of all grandmothers: there is everything from furry handcuffs to bras hanging from trousers, passing through Cicciolina on the t-shirt. All he needed was a purse to steal from the audience to complete the outfit. 6 and a half just because they made a splash at FantaSanremo.
