The conductor retraced the stages of his life in an interview, dwelling among the memories on that of the premier as a classmate. Both attended the high school Massimo in Rome, with the Jesuits.
“He especially has changed. I was already doing the shows ”, Magalli joked. "He was never a nerd", he said, "but he won all the Latin and Greek competitions, and he also won the gymnastic ones".
"Draghi was intelligent, nice and a very correct person: he was not one of those who spied on the professor - he added - In short, he was an extremely pleasant person".
"As a kid he was like now", he later specified, "with his parting, combed like now and always with that smile that was his business card. My fear is that politicians realize that he is better than them" .
Giancarlo Magalli then recalled Raffaella Carrà with whom he was linked by a strong friendship. "Nobody knew," he said about the disease that took away the queen of Italian television in a few months. "She had understood that it was a road of no return, she had left indications on his funeral".
"I did not go to the Quirinale - he then added about his alleged and controversial candidacy for the Quirinale - but now I aim for the papacy, I will be bishop in Don Matteo", the joke about his new role as an actor in the famous TV series of Rai 1.
