“I didn’t take it personally.”

Ercole tried to minimize the impact of the case. In a statement to the Italian press, the Brazilian said that he spoke with the singer at a later time. “However, I can say that I didn’t take it personally, didn’t feel offended, and at the end of the broadcast, he did come clean with me,” he said.

Amaral is a model, rapper, and actor. He made a cameo in the film “House of Gucci” He gained notoriety in the hip-hop community in Azzano, a small town in rural Italy.

The singer who made the racist speech is going through a downward phase of his career and, recently, in an interview with La Reppublica complains about the Italian broadcasters. the reason? Lippi is no longer assigned to talk shows. I wonder why?
