I like women a lot but I’m not a lesbian», says the influencer who then he makes open advances towards the presenter: «I really like women like you. But you’re straight, right? If you think again, call me back».
Finally the influencer tells a very dark time of his past. «I was in a sick relationship with a guy who beat me», he confides to Francesca Fagnani. «I found refuge in narcotic substances, I used to do heroin. I had demonic visions at that time,” says Mega.
The interview with Jovanotti
Always reluctant to be interviewed, especially about his private life, Lorenzo Jovanotti gives himself this time. In the long chat with the journalist, he talks about his mother’s depression. Francesca Fagnani asks him: «You said that all your life you tried to make her laugh: did you succeed?». «I managed to make her happy, even laugh. She was very proud of this successful son» says the singer.
At that point the journalist asks if there is a memory of his mother that moves him and Lorenzo, holding back his emotion, confesses: «When my brother died in a plane crash, my mother’s tear sacs dried up and for the rest of his life he had to use eye drops because he could no longer produce tears.”

On the serious health problem of his daughter Teresa – a lymphatic tumor defeated in 2022 –, Fagnani asks Jovanotti how he reacted at the time and the singer reveals: «Trying to bring out all the strength I had to be a solid point next to her and next to her mother.”
Still on the subject of health problems, Jovanotti also talks about his physical recovery after the serious bike accident in Santo Domingo which caused him to break his collarbone and femur. «I’m coming out of a difficult year», says Jova. «For me it’s all new and I have to understand how to stay inside this new body. I felt completely disoriented. But I’m working a lot and in March I’ll be ready for the tour».
The memory of Silvio Berlusconi and the (alleged) flirtation with Valeria Marini
During the interview, as usual, there is also no shortage of light anecdotes and funny moments. As a memory linked to Silvio Berlusconi when Lorenzo took his first steps in his career in the 1980s. «Berlusconi proposed that I host children’s TV in Bonolis’ place. We met and then went to see Milan by helicopter from Arcore. Then he said to me: “We have to pee together otherwise Milan will lose!“. So Berlusconi and I peed next to each other.” “Was it a good time?” the journalist jokes. «Beautiful, memorable. But he also told me read, read books, read everything. And I then followed that advice».
Finally, the alleged flirtation with Valeria Marini. The journalist, jokingly, asks: «Valeria talked about a flirtation of yours. What does it cost you to admit it?” and Lorenzo, laughing, replies: «I’m an elegant man, we don’t talk about these things here in public. She shouldn’t do it either.”

Vittorio Feltri guest at Beasts 2024
Last guest of the evening, the journalist Vittorio Feltrifor once in the shoes of the interviewee and not the interviewer. Feltri immediately tells about a private meeting with Pope Francis: «I was received by the Pope and he, when he saw me, he told me: “I know her. We have the same thoughts about many things.” Then I started laughing and said: “About what, about fagotism for example?” He spoke out against fagotism.”
In the studio of Beasts, Feltri also recounts the most significant moments of his long journalistic careerbut also of his childhood, of death of his father when he was only six years old and the loss of his first wife after the birth of their first two children. The former director of Libero also talks about long marriage, 55 years, with second wife Enoe Bonfanti.
«I have never cheated on my wife. Every now and then she tells me: “You betrayed me”, I reply “Sometimes I diversified”. Betrayal means a knife stuck between the shoulder blades, but I have diversified. I was distracted for a moment, a month, five years. I have always diversified to make life less boring».
Finally, always pressed about his private life, Fagnani asks Feltri about his “special” bond with Melania Rizzoli: «For years you have been very close to Rizzoli which, in turn, is here at Beastssaid she was very close to her.” Feltri explains: «Me too. Why she is the only best friend I have ever had and she is the only one I have had in my life». Intrigued, the journalist asks if it is a form of love and Feltri comments crypticly: “I have great affection for Melania.”
