The ongoing edition of the Italian Song Festival in Sanremo is delivering more and more emotions, extending beyond the musical competition itself. The central point of contention has become Gianni Morandi's performance with his son, which provoked a sharp reaction from actor Alessandro Gassmann. Simultaneously, the Ariston stage has become a place for deep social reflection thanks to Vincenzo Schettini. In the background, Rai is conducting an investigation into a possible hidden advertisement by Malika Ayane, while streaming statistics show Fedez's dominance on streaming services.
This year's Sanremo festival has entered a phase of intense disputes over equal treatment of artists and their families. The spark was a guest performance by Gianni Morandi, who appeared on stage alongside his son, Tredici Pietro. This event triggered an immediate and bitter reaction from Alessandro Gassmann. In a later-deleted social media post, the actor accused the organizers of applying double standards. Gassmann claims he was repeatedly denied the opportunity to support his son, Leo, on the festival stage, citing strict regulations prohibiting the appearance of close relatives of competition participants. This dispute casts a shadow on the transparency of the rules of Italy's most important music event. The Ariston Theatre, which has been the festival's permanent home since 1977, has frequently hosted multi-generational artistic clans, regularly sparking discussions about nepotism in the Italian entertainment industry.Alongside political-family tensions, the festival offered moments of deep contemplation.
