The gaffe and then the apology: «That's what my uncle jokingly called my aunt (of Sardinian origin) when I was a child».
Thus Fabrizio Moro , in concert yesterday for the feast of San Simplicio at the Fausto Noce park in Olbia, replies to the negative comments that arose from his social greeting to the Sardinians, called «sardegnoli» .
After the live show, the Roman singer-songwriter greeted and thanked the audience with a story on Instagram and Facebook: "Thank you Olbia, thank you Sardinians. See you soon," he wrote, using a word that for Sardinians has the flavor of an insult.
While some, trusting in the sure good faith of the former winner of Sanremo, did not take it badly, many were offended and asked for an apology.
Apologies promptly arrived with a story on social media. As was easy to understand, it was a misunderstanding: «Sardegnola was the way my uncle, jokingly, called my aunt (of Sardinian origins) when I was a child. Being very close to the two of them, this thing has remained with me. I didn't remember in the slightest what it meant to you and in the throes of post-concert euphoria I greeted you and thanked you in that way. I'm sorry if anyone felt offended, but the intent was confidential and above all friendly. I love you».
