Laura Pausini: “Bella Ciao? I don’t sing political songs”

“I don’t sing political songs, neither right nor left. I’ve been singing what I think about life for 30 years. That fascism is an absolute shame seems obvious to me. I don’t want anyone to use me for political propaganda. Don’t invent what they don’t. I am”. Laura Pausini thus replies to the controversy that broke out on social media after refusing to sing ‘Bella ciao’ while participating in a Spanish television program, El Hormiguero, where, as the site davidemaggio.it tells us, she was involved in a musical game in which the contestants had to sing a song that contained the word ‘corazon’. Pausini at that point sang the famous Italian song ‘Cuore Matto’, but no one knew it and that’s how the conductor sang ‘Bella ciao’ wanting to involve those present, but she refused, explaining that she did not want to sing political songs. At that point, there was no shortage of very harsh judgments on the net against her and there are those who gave her the ‘fascist’.
