As everyone knows, a few months ago Amadeus said goodbye to RAI to move to Canale Nove owned by the Discovery group
A bolt of lightning from an almost clear sky. This is how it was read by RAI managers Amadeus’ farewell with relative move to Canale Nove owned by the Discovery group. The host and showman from Ravenna left a void that the top management of the Viale Mazzini company subsequently filled with Carlo Conti.
However, the escape from state TV does not seem to be over at all, especially as regards the big names in entertainment. Immediately after hearing the news of the breakup between RAI and Amadeus, more than one person went unbalanced, imagining a subsequent release of another big shot.
We are talking about the king of entertainment, author of highly successful programs and strong point of the public broadcaster. And above all, a brotherly friend of Amadeus. For those who still haven’t understood, we are talking about Rosario Fiorello, known simply as Fiorello.
The Sicilian comedian, who in recent years has brilliantly supported Amadeus in hosting the Sanremo Festival, unlike his great friend does not seem intent on following in his footsteps. The idea of “Fiore” is to remain at RAIwithout even taking other proposals into consideration.
Ama, this time your great friend Fiorello isn’t following you: here’s why
“Long live Rai Due”the program hosted on the streets very early in the morning by Fiorello he achieved sensational success to say the least and just the idea of losing too made the hairs on the heads of the managers of Viale Mazzini stand on end.
This danger, however, does not exist, because it is Fiorello himself who has declared almost eternal love on state TV. This time the golden couple of Italian television is about to split. Discovery’s managing director for Southern Europe, Alessandro Araimoconfirmed Fiorello’s permanence in RAI.
Amadeus, the joke is official: no Discovery for Fiorello
The manager of the American giant underlined the many difficulties that Discovery could encounter in including a talk show like that of the Sicilian comedian in its schedules. Among other things, Araimo himself denied having had contact with Fiorello.
“Fiorello and I have never met, for us a morning show is economically unsustainable, even just four episodes wouldn’t be good: we need greater continuity to attract investors“. No Canale Nove for Fiorelloat least for now.
