Gianni Morandi remains in the race at the Sanremo 2022 Festival.
The 77-year-old singer from Monghidoro was the protagonist of a small inconvenience that could have cost him the disqualification at the festival to be held from 1 to 5 February.
Despite the strict rule of bringing rigorously unpublished songs to the Ariston, his song "Open all doors" signed by Jovanotti was partially published in a video released on social media from the singer's Facebook page.
The Artistic Direction of the Festival in agreement with Rai1 has decided not to exclude it: "It was a pure technical inconvenience - writes Rai - due to Morandi's need to wear a brace on his right hand which has undergone several interventions following the accident which occurred a few months ago ".
“This time I made it big - explained Morandi -. I was wrong to inadvertently post a video on Facebook with fragments of the song I have to sing in Sanremo. I insist on doing it alone but I'm really a clumsy! As soon as I realized I deleted it but someone had already seen it. I am heartbroken, sorry and I apologize very much to Rai, with the artistic direction of the Festival, with my record company, with the musicians, with the producer Mousse T, with Jovanotti and with all the people who are working on this project. Perhaps from today it is better that Anna takes care of social media ".
