Judging the couples, as always, are the five jurors Ivan Zazzaroni, Fabio Canino, Selvaggia Lucarelli and Guillermo Mariotto, led by president Carolyn Smith. Renato Zero was the dancer for a night who inflamed the atmosphere of the Rai Auditorium of the Foro Italico.
Dancing with the Stars 2025fourth episode report cards, Barbara D’Urso wins, no one eliminated
At the end of the fourth episode, Barbara D’Urso confirmed herself as the protagonist of the evening, taking first place in the rankings together with Pasquale La Rocca. In second place are Andrea Delogu and Nikita Perotti, followed by Francesca Fialdini and Giovanni Pernice. For now it is clear that the race for the final victory is a three-way affair, although Martina Colombari, paired with Luca Favilla, continues to surprise and improve week after week.
This time the treasure does not alter the ranking of Dancing with the stars
The treasure of the episode, 50 points in total, further ignited the challenge: 25 points went to Andrea Delogu from the prince of the treasure Alberto Matano, and another 25 points to Barbara D’Urso thanks to Rossella Erraprincess of the treasure and voice of the public together with Sara Di Vaira and Matteo Addino.
At the bottom of the final ranking, read as always by Massimiliano Rosolino, there are always the usual names: those of Beppe Convertini and Mrs. Coriandoliwho danced decidedly worse than the others. But there is also that of Marcella Bella, too penalized by the jury’s votes. Here are the pass and fail winners of the evening.
Renato Zero dancer for a night in his own way. Rating 5
Heralded as the Beyoncé of the best times at the Super Bowl final, Renato Zero enters the scene with all the masters of Dancing with the stars. He sings, he moves, that is, he moves his arms and legs with a certain rhythm, but there’s no question of dancing (really). Around him, the dancers build a musical choreography. All beautiful, for goodness sake: Renato Zero is Renato Zero, and his presence alone is worth the evening.
In terms of dance, though, the vibes were more Bruno Vespa-hosted passed off as a dancer for one night, exactly the one in which he promotes his annual book and takes two careful steps while two dancers bustle around him to save what can be saved. Ok the promotion of the new album Zero Hourbut dancing, the real one, is another story. Renato, however, had a showman’s flair: he made the 19 tracks of the album available, inviting two couples a week to use them for their choreographies. Press office and marketing manager himself, now he has to wait until next week to find out whether his offer has been accepted or not.
Paolo Belli and Anastasia Kuzmina (IPA)
The “wickedness” of Anastasia Kuzmina. Rating 8
Paolo Belli’s teacher in the introductory clip to their performance is furious about last week’s low grades: she takes it out on Guillermo Mariotto, guilty of having snorted a “how boring”. And he also takes it out on Paolo Belli, guilty of not getting angry enough. He wants to see him naughty.
Given that it’s easier to see Milly Carlucci disheveled than to see Paolo Belli angry, the itch with which Anastasia defends her VIP dancers (and therefore also her work) is something from times gone by. Fabio Canino confirms it. When he meets her in the corridors with Paolo Belli she is much less smiling than in the studio: «She is very strict». Nevertheless, when she dances, she never steals the show from her partner, a rare quality among the professionals of the program. It is no coincidence that Chiquito, Marcella Bella’s current teacher, when he was competing in Dreaming… Dancing with the stars to obtain the post of master right at Dancingwere paired with her. So, after last week’s decline, last night’s tango also brought Paolo Belli back to get the applause he deserves.
Andrea Delogu #nofilter competitor. Rating 9
He speaks with the awareness of someone who has learned to know himself fully and with the fragility of someone who is not afraid to show himself. In the clip she confesses that she is a resolved woman, except in love: when he talks about the pain of the end of his last story, it’s clear that he hasn’t gotten over it yet. If he admits that he has been in analysis for eleven years, he does so with a sincerity that is surprising.
Then he takes to the dance floor with a tango, and there Andrea Delogu transforms. In a black lace dress she could have paraded in at Victoria’s Secret Fashion Showdance to the tune of Heartbreaker by Samuele Bersani, sensual and centered like never before. She and Nikita Perotti perform before midnight (miracle!) and the dance floor catches fire: the standing ovation for them is interrupted only by Matteo Addino, tribune of the people on the edge of the track, who comments: «A crazy storytellinga tango that becomes a story of how to let go of a love.” But Andrea Delogu doesn’t just dance: she puts herself on stage and does it without filters.
Barbara D’Urso and Pasquale La Rocca (IPA)
Water on the fire of the controversy over Barbara D’Urso «who is not Barbara D’Urso. Rating 2
In the fourth episode, they still reproach her for not having “exploded”, for not having told her truth about Mediaset’s departure, for not having “been like D’Urso”. At 68 years old, she says she has chosen to take a different step. On the dance floor with Pasquale La Rocca she dedicates the quickstep to her native Naples, she dances very well and looks like a professional, but for some it’s not enough. Alberto Matano recognizes that he dances well, yet “something is missing”. She avoids confrontation, but the solicitations continue. Selvaggia Lucarelli presses her and Barbara then asks bluntly: “What do you expect from me?”.
A question and answer begins and when the controversy begins to mount, with the “accused” D’Urso going so far as to say that her two-year removal from TV was unfair, the tone quickly rises. But Milly intervenes to lower them, despite herself (according to her): it’s advertising time. Which extends until midnight Tg1. Upon returning to the studio, the temperature has already dropped and Carolyn Smith says: “How boring.” Nobody was bored at home, at all. The fuse, meanwhile, has been lit.
