Is called The Pandora’s Boxthe rise and fall of the Ferragnez and it is the book of Selvaggia Lucarelli out May 14th for Paper First. Rich, very rich. A writing that, as he underlines Serena Mazzini in the preface, “intends to explore the broad media impact of Ferragni and Fedez in the Italian context, highlighting how their communication models have evolved in response to the needs of rapid and pervasive consumption“.
On FQMagazine one of the initial passages of the book which concerns the first date between Fedez and Chiara Ferragni. It’s gossip, some will say. But it is a dynamic that tells several things, in light of what happened today after the Pandoro Gate and the separation between the two. Galeotta was a bar that the rapper sang in a song: “Chiara Ferragni’s dog has a Vuitton bow tie, and a collar with more glitter than an Elton John jacket”. “(…) Chiara is flattered by the quote and she decides to live the moment privately: she posts a video in which she sings on her social networks I would like but I don’t post with his sisters, Fedez lives the moment with equal modesty and asks them on Snapchat: ‘Chiara, shall we make out?‘”, says Lucarelli The Pandora’s Box. And she continues: “Then they write to each other, he asks her to see each other, but it’s summer and ‘our agendas didn’t coincide’, Chiara said years later in a live Instagram. For the record, the agendas included a trip between Cuba, Tulum and the Hawaii for Ferragni and a private jet holiday to Ibiza with a famous YouTuber for Fedez. In short, it was a question of finding space between a meeting on environmental sustainability and an Ayurvedic retreat. To make a long story short: early September shifts their respective institutional commitments, their agendas finally coincide and they go to dinner together overcoming her perplexities who, as she will explain later, ‘She was terrified that the paparazzi might photograph them‘. Moreover, his fierce attachment to privacy is well known. Or rather, it is known how little she loves having her privacy violated by someone other than herself in an obsessive and obstinate way, and for a very simple reason: Chiara Ferragni, from her distant beginnings in the 2000s when her name was Little devil87 on Netlog until his participation in Sanremo 2023, he filtered every news…”.
What happens next? Do the paparazzi accidentally catch the couple on their first outing? Not exactly. “Chiara’s fear, however, materializes a few days later – writes Lucarelli – when the photos of that dinner in the restaurant of the luxurious Palazzo Parigi hotel in Milan were published in the gossip magazine ‘Chi’ on 13 September 2016. Not only that, she and Fedez are photographed from behind even when they go up the hotel stairs to retreat to the fashion blogger’s room. Hot night in suite?, Fedez, a night with Chiara Ferragni, Caught by the paparazzi, Chiara and Fedez surprised together in Milan, Scoop of ‘Chi’; the newspapers write. What Chiara doesn’t know (and perhaps never knew) is that those photos are not the result of the intuition of a paparazzo or a lucky stakeout. That day, Fedez alerted his press office who alerted a ‘Chi’ journalist by telling him the location and time of the meeting. The journalist in turn instructed a photographer, AF, to go and photograph them at the hotel. Fedez who was singing on the radio at that momentEvery memory is more important to share than to live it / I would like but I don’t place‘, he can’t wait to share, before living. To let gossip lovers know that he went out with the most famous fashion blogger of all.” The rest, as they say, is history. But not only. It is also a set of revelations contained in the Pandora’s Box, by Selvaggia Lucarelli.
