Italian organization surprises again

The Eurovision Song Contest has been going on for almost a whole week now. We have started with the dress rehearsals of the final. But the Italian organization continues to surprise.

Presenter Laura Pausini was not present at the start of the rehearsals. Her colleague Alessandro Cattelan told the press that the singer and presenter is doing well, but she had to take some rest. Mika was present, but left before the rehearsal had really started. Someone from the production had to replace him. It has never happened in recent years that one of the presenters did not rehearse. Most notable was one of Petra Mede’s rehearsals. She hosted the festival in 2013. She appeared on stage with curlers in her hair.

And believe it or not, the participant from Sweden struggled with technical problems again. Cornelia Jakobs started singing “Hold me closer”, the music started, but the sound cut out again. That makes the singer the unluckiest person of this year towards the end: for her so far no rehearsal has gone without problems.

It has been a week since Sanremo 2025 has come to an end. With a total of 23.8% Olly won the whole show with his song “Balorda Nostalgia”. Usually most Sanremo winners accept the offer to represent Italy at Eurovision, however during a press conference on Sunday afternoon Olly stated that he wasn’t sure and needed some time to think about it. Italian broadcaster RAI gave him one week to think about his desicion. Today Olly has chosen not to go Basel.  Olly shared this statement on his social media: “For days I have been asking myself and asking everyone’s opinions. The answer is always the same: ‘In the end, you have to do what you feel.’ I firmly believe that I need to connect with everything that is happening to me before looking even further.” Lucio Corsi, the runner-up of this year’s Festival Di Sanremo, was very positive about representing Italy if Olly would decline. Lucio came second in the competition with a total of 23.4% together with his song “Volevo Essere Un Duro”. Rai announced that Lucio will wave the Italian flag at Eurovision with his Sanremo song. Italy is already in the Eurovision final, as it is one of the big 5 countries, but will still vote in the First Semi-Final.  This is Lucio’s song: Share
