Life after Helsinki 2007 Eurovision

Last night's fourth night was a..... yes, you guessed it, a record breaking fourth night. With a share of 60,5%!!! and nearly 11,4 million viewers it is the most watched since 1995, and only third time the magic 60% has been broken. Streaming on RaiPlay has grown 90% (well, that's what you get when you lift the geoblock!), 7,4 million contacts on social medias and 4,4 million plays on demand.  But let's leave all those figures behind and concentrate on tonight's final and a few comments on last night's karaoke night.  As much as I am not a fan of that covers night last night it was rather enjoyable. Some covers were far from good, some were nice, some were prettygood. The most talked one was of course Gianni Morandi enrolling Jovanotti next to him to belt out their biggest hits. Or not quite as they started of with Morandi's Euroviison entru Occhi di ragazza, not exactly a major hit for him. The controversies aside if that was fair or not as Jovanotti is a megas...

A week to go for the announcements and there are more rumors and pretty much oonfirmed guest stars. Laura Pausini is already certain, Eros Ramazzotti has confirmed himself on Twitter his presence and the duet Andrea Bocelli and Ariana Grande seems to be happening live on stage as well following their duet single and video As for the co-hosts next to Carlo Conti there seem to have been a plan to hire the guys of Il Volo but they are unavailable as they are in the middle of their American tour then. So, the solution? Go back to the classic and hire models or actresses so Conti seems to be dealing with classic Italian movie star beauties Sabrina Ferilli (she's done this already) and Monica Bellucci.  Non singing international stars he seems to be after are Julia Roberts and George Clooney, just like last year wasn't it?
