During the tenth episode of The Island of the Famousconducted by Vladimir Luxuria on Channel 5 Wednesday 22 Maywe witness theelimination of Greta Zuccarello and at the birth of a new leader, Matilde Brandiprotagonist of one clash with Valentina Vezzali, who accuses her of not having defended her when everyone attacked her live, in the Palapa, last Sunday. Also worth mentioning is the comparison between Greta Zuccarello and Artur Dainese, at that moment both at risk of elimination, and then the reaction of the dancer’s mother when Rosanna Lodi attacks her daughter from the studio (again?). During the evening Karina Sapsai she is pointed out as guilty for having risked putting out the fire, a useless contrast given that on that occasion there were 5 people around the fire who could have solved the problem without the contribution of the leader, who had left her position to look for snails together to Alvina Verecondi Scortecci.
In the meantime Khady Gueye she is the protagonist of the bridge of emotions, where she talks about her relationship with her grandmother, her brothers, her father (now recovered and back in Italy) and her mother, who reads her letter to her live, the one burned in the last episode (the last week’s controversy must have convinced the authors to give her this possibility). To the televoting goes Karina, Linda, Dario, Artur and Edoardo Franco, who did not use the amulet to gain immunity (here you can find all the nominations with reasons and the summary of the May 22nd episode). Let’s remember that in the studio, as always, they are the commentators Sonia Bruganelli and Dario Maltese to support the presenter.
Island of the Famous, May 22nd episode: the tops
We give the first top of the evening to Khady Gueye, protagonist of a truly moving moment that begins during the emotional journey on the famous bridge that saw other castaways crying their eyes out (Samuel Peron) like our castaway. The influencer and model highlights all her love for her family and her origins, using somewhat banal but sincere and heartfelt words towards her mother, who finally reads her letter to her, and her father, returned to Italy after a long time. What more could you want when love wins?
Well deserved applause goes to Greta Zuccarello for the maturity with which she faces the public’s decision to want her out of the program. The young girl says she is happy with her growth path on the show and then, when Luxuria asks her to do some healthy self-criticism, she replies: “Some people will like me and others won’t, that’s okay“. In short, he takes it well (and then gives the Judas kiss to Dario Cassini).
Passed with flying colors too Edward Franco for not having wasted his amulet – with the object he can save himself from the televoting nomination: he proves to be intelligent and a fine strategist because, with 3 people who have entered the Island of the Famous for a week at risk of elimination, it is easier for someone to leave between Dario Cassini (probably not, but we’ll see), Linda Morselli and Karina Sapsai. Among other things, the former competitor of MasterChef Italy he’s well-loved outside of the show, so why not use the advantage when it really matters? Good boy.
Island of the famous, the flops
We give the first flop to Matilde Brandi, attacked live by Valentina Vezzali (present in the studio), because last Sunday, when everyone in Palapa pointed to her, she didn’t intervene to support her. What disappoints us is the fact that while Valentina tells her, among other things, that her behavior broke her heart on that occasion, Matilde smiles, as if finding her motivations amusing, as if mocking her with only the facial mimic. It’s okay that Vezzali is exaggerated and even wrong – the first to attack was the champion herself last Sunday, saying that she always takes credit for everything by speaking in the singular in front of the cameras -, but her feelings must always be respected .
Once again, it disappoints Vladimir Luxuriaalways the same, more dull than usual, set: from the first day it has failed to be impartial, and at the same time continues to carry out a slow, boring and devoid of any creative spark: always stuck at the same point, even if at least he doesn’t tell her when there’s something to be angry about, but he always does it in a too calm manner, as if he doesn’t want to expose himself, and this is exactly his problem.
The last flop is for Rosanna Lodi, ready to attack Greta Zuccarello even from the studio, with her mother at her side. After the debate between the dancer and Artur Dainese, both at risk of elimination at that moment, where the two express their thoughts on the other, from the studio Rosanna criticizes her bitter enemy, calling her arrogant and aggressive. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter, but we wonder if – as Greta’s mother says (“You’ve done your show, that’s enough”) – it’s not worth stopping pointing people out and thinking about our own life outside the show. She would be her too now, to be honest, given that since she entered the program she has done nothing but argue about everything.
