Ornella Vanoni, 90 years old in September, born in 1934, is experiencing a second youth of popularity, with many invitations and commitments. Sometimes too many. The great interpreter is back from two entire live concerts in Milan, which saw her on stage performing her great hits, in the company of other great artists of all generations. Every Sunday we see her in the studios of What’s the weather likeguest of Fabio Faziobut in the last few hours she was forced to put a stop to this whirlwind of events, officially giving up the concert One None One Hundred Thousand in the Arena, the great event organized by the foundation of the same name chaired by Fiorella Mannoiawhich brings together many artists on stage to raise funds for Cavs across Italy.
The singer was expected on stage, but a few hours ago it was Ornella Vanoni herself who announced the cancellation, with a video on Instagram which initially greatly alarmed fans, given the tones with which the artist expressed herself.
“They told me: you can’t go or you die. And they are right, I would have died!” These are the words of Ornella Vanoni, sitting at a table in her Milanese home. The tones are dramatic, but it is enough to listen to the artist’s message in full to understand that what she wants to communicate to her fans, in a very colorful version, like her style, is that, in the aftermath of the two concerts, the cumulative fatigue (and attic acid) is such that it does not allow you to participate in another event with a high level of adrenaline and energy expenditure. The singer, however, is obviously keen to reiterate her full support for the cause of Una Quale Centomila and she is sorry for the flat rate which she is obliged to give at the last moment to protect her health. On the other hand, i fans understand the message perfectly, and in fact, almost all the comments are of great support and admiration for the artist who, despite the years that pass, continues to spend his talent and energy to be present for the public and even when a cause social, such as that against gender violence at the center of One None One Hundred Thousand, requires it. In fact, if Ornella Vanoni will not be able to be at the Verona Arena, she still wanted to reiterate her support for the initiative.
