The Apulian singer at the center of fake news. «My fake videos created with artificial intelligence have been spread». And to Cecchetto who tells young people to make room he replies: «Typically Italian attitude»
He didn't laugh about it. In fact he got angry, making the necessary entreaties. Al Bano, who yesterday (January 22) intervened with a reel on his Instagram page to have his say on the fake news that has circulated in recent days about his state of health, has decided to sue those who defamed him. The Cellino San Marco singer who will blow out 82 candles on May 20th confirmed that he is in excellent shape.
Al Bano, explain what happened.
«I can't stand these wretches any longer: it's already the third time they've left me for dead. Some time ago they released images and videos of me in a wheelchair speaking, created with artificial intelligence.”
And what does the false Al Bano say?
«They told me that I am very sick, that I have a very strong form of arthrosis, that I took the drugs wrong… Everything, more. Then followed the story of the liver transplant I would undergo and then my death. Do you think that me, Roby Facchinetti, Romina, Celentano died that day. All on the same day.”
Who notified her?
«Many people showed me the links, I showed them to my lawyer who has already filed a complaint. We must exterminate this wave of fake news. How could my children who stay away react? And if my mother had been alive, how would she have felt?”
Who is behind these sites?
«The news of the transplant was launched by Dillinger News, Fabrizio Corona's website; we will also discover the authors of the other fake news.”
What is the point of spreading falsehoods about his health?
“I would also like to know what the benefit is.”
Another lie concerns the dates with Romina.
«We are agreeing on them. For now, two evenings have been scheduled, one in Sofia in May and one in Austria in July. There will also be some evenings of mine. However, I had to give up “Io canto senior” on Canale 5 because I was convinced of going to Sanremo.”
Will the festival watch it?
“Surely. And the most beautiful song will win, rarely the singer.”
Next year he will try again.
“We will see”.
Claudio Cecchetto is of the opinion that it is important to make room for young people.
«This is typically Italian. In the United States, the news of Frank Sinatra's death brought the country to a standstill. Only in Italy is it thought that those of a certain age have no right to live. Today I visited a music high school in Potenza. An orchestra of 200 students welcomed me. And should I stop singing?
