cclosed the press conference, that of the first evening, for San Remo 2023 now all that remains is to leave. Appointment therefore at 20.40 on Rai 1 with Amadeus And Gianni Morandi and the first co-host, Clare Ferragni. In the race there are 14 singers with as many songs that will be voted by journalists divided between print, radio and web. No televoting but a provisional ranking at the end of the evening. Meanwhile, the wait for this edition is palpable, there is the pressure of audience figures after the feast without competition of the past years; first time of the influencer billing like a multinational inside the TV and off the cell phone (“I’m not a presenter but I’ll give it my all”); and partly for everything else. On all the last two guests announced this morning: Sergio Mattarella and Roberto Benigni.

Special guests are also Mahmood and Blancothe winners of the 2021 edition will sing Chills.

Amadeus says theirs will be a performance to remember. In connection with the Nave Costa – advertising space – there will be Psalmand from Columbus Square – alternative stage at the Ariston – Achilles Lauro.
Space also for Elena Sofia Ricci for Rai’s promotion Flowers above hellnew fiction in which the actress plays Teresa Battaglia, profiler based on Ilaria Tuti’s books (Longanesi).
