Il Giornale, the Milan-based Italian daily newspaper, has made a rough estimate of how much Sanremo 2020 presenters can pay.
Referring to past figures, Amadeus, presenter and artistic director of this year's edition, is thought to be paid 500,000-600,000 euros.
His co-presenters on stage, 11 famous Italian screen characters , but not only, are thought to be paid 20,000-25,000 euros. Rula Jebreal, an Arab foreign policy analyst, writer and screenwriter, has said she will donate the money to charity. It is thought that the same amount, ie 20/25 thousand euros will be paid other presenters.
According to Il Giornale, other names, such as Antonella Clerici, an Italian presenter, can be paid double the amount. Mara Venier, a veteran of Italian television, knows nothing.
Costs for the Sanremo 2020 should be close to those of previous years. The budget is thought to reach 18m euros.
