On Tuesday (January 14th) the artistic director of the 70th edition of Sanremos Amadeus made the names that will present the festival, including the moderator, official.
"One of the most beautiful days of my life", thus describes Alketa Vejsiu for Anabel.al, this Tuesday, January 14, as she travels to Pristina, receiving the official announcement that she will be one of the co-presenters of the Festival. Sanremo.
The artistic director of the 70th edition of Sanremo, Amadeus, announced the names that will be presented during a press conference at the Teatro del Casino on Tuesday morning. This year Amadeus has decided to be 10 presenters, the 10 most popular names in the world of cinema, fashion, pink pages and spectacle, such as Georgina Rodriguez (Christiano Ronaldo's partner), Rula Jebreal, Antonella Clerici, Diletta Leotta, Emma D 'Aquino, Laura Chimenti, model Francesca Sofia Novello (Valentino Rossi's fiancé), Sabrina Salerno, Monica Bellucci and Alketa Weysiu.
To Alceta, Amadeus said that "is one of the most famous presenters in Albania and after Italy, Albania has been Sanremo's most loyal viewer for years."
A few weeks ago during the presentation on the first night of the 58th ART Festival, Alketa Vejsiu mentioned Sanremo a little while talking to Italian Eurovision representative Mahmood. "One day I might be there," she said, and many on social networks saw her dream skeptical.
"Sanremo has been a dream of mine since I was little and I have been with my manager there for two years, Lucio Presta (also manager of Bonolis, Begnini, Perego and Belen Rodriguez) working on my entry into the Italian market," she explained. for Anabel.al.
For those with a strong memory, Alketa has repeatedly expressed not only her desire but also her plans to arrive on the Italian screen. During a meeting with Bonolis - after purchasing a patent for "In the Trap of Peter Pan", she wrote on her Instagram that "greater things await us." Then during the November 26 earthquake, Alketa was invited to the daily program " La Vita in Diretta ?, in Rai Uno to talk about the tragedy.
With some statements there, here, and with many behind-the-scenes work, Alketa managed to get his foot in one of the most important scenes of the Italian spectacle, becoming the first Albanian to present at the festival. There will be two presenters each night and Alketa is scheduled to present the third night along with Georgina Rodriguez.
?I don't believe it yet. I'm flying with joy. ?- she continues as she rushes to Valdrin Sahiti's studio in Pristina.
December-January 2020 kept Alketa in the spotlight longer than ever during 2019, citing widespread criticism in the media (one of them anabel.al) of excessive interference with songs and monologues and changing of the dresses, to her statement against Arilene's victory and to continue with the heated statements of the "Class " magazine - which she administers - against the sisters Vjollca and Jamie Shehu. Although she prefers not to comment on post-festival statements, Alketa clarifies that her entire performance at the 58th Festival was a strategy.
?I was struggling to get into Sanremo and the ART Festival was a great presentation opportunity as it was a production of the same kind. So understanding the criticism, I now believe it's time to clarify that I tried my best to be a presenter, show girl and also a presenter; somehow I had enough material to get to my dream. ?
But our question is: "What is the significance of personal dreams for the Albanian public who did not enjoy excessive performances and performances?"
?There I will not only climb as Alketa Vejsiu, but as the first Albanian moderator. Indeed, trying to enter the international market for anyone starts from a personal desire, but when you step into that historic scene, you take with you the responsibility of representing your country better. My trophy today is a trophy for all Albanians and I will try to speak our language in front of millions of Italian viewers as much as possible. ?- she concludes for Anabel.al.
Alketa Vejsiu has 20 more days to prepare for her presentation at the Sanremo Festival starting on February 4th. Until then, the recently created media buzz will fade away, and we will look forward to seeing how all of its multi-year investment will materialize in that scene.
