The previews of the episode offer a look at the different topics at the center of the episode but also on some funny moments such as when Francesca Fagnani mentioned Carmen Di Pietro and Jovanotti thought she was dead. The presenter reminded Lorenzo Cherubini when Silvio Berlusconi wanted him as a TV presenter of the boys instead of Bonolis: “We went to see Milan with the helicopter from Arcore. He showed off his entire repertoire, then told me: ‘we have to pee together otherwise Milan will lose’. So we peed one Berlusconi and I also said to me, read books, read everything.

In the interview Jovanotti spoke about mother who suffered from severe depression. Francesca Fagnani asked him if in the end he managed to make her laugh as he had promised to do: “I managed to make her happy, even to laugh. She was very proud of this successful son. I noticed some sadness in her that made me very well formed”. The singer also remembered his brother Umberto, who died in 2007 in a plane crash with an ultralight in Latina (the other, Bernardo, is now in the house of Big Brother). “When my brother died, my mother’s tear sacs dried up, she wasn’t able to cry. For the rest of her life she used eye drops, she was no longer able to produce tears, they probably would have been too many” said Jovanotti, saying he had held the Bible of his brother, finding it all underlined. “The first time I opened it, I found an underlined phrase from the book of Joshua that says ‘be strong and resolute’. I tell myself this every day.”

Valeria Marini he said several times that he had a flirtation with Jovanotti, al Corriere della Sera he said they were together a year “Wonderful, sunny, playful, he taught me to look at the stars in the sky on the night of San Lorenzo”. Pressed by Francesca Fagnani, Jovanotti however neither denied nor confirmed: “I am an elegant man, we don’t talk about these things here in public, neither should you.” Getting more serious, Lorenzo Cherubini also spoke about his daughter’s illness, who faced Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a tumor of the lymphatic system, and the way she reacted by trying to “bring out all the strength I had to be a solid point next to her and next to her mother.” However, it hasn’t been an easy year, also considering the accident he suffered: “Everything is new for me, I have to understand how to stay inside this new body.” On July 15, 2023, he was on holiday in Santo Domingo when he had a bad cycling accident that resulted in a fracture of his femur and collarbone. “I felt completely disoriented. I had lost my colors, my fundamental instrument which has always been my body. I’m working hard and in March I will be ready for the tour.”
