Carlo Conti reveals Raye was considered for Sanremo Festival

During the premiere of the television program ‘Tale e Quale Show’, host Carlo Conti revealed that British singer Raye was considered as a potential guest for the Sanremo Music Festival. The revelation occurred following a performance by contestant Selma Ezzine, who performed a song by Raye.

Conti noted that while the opportunity to have the international artist appear on the Ariston stage was seriously discussed, the collaboration did not ultimately materialize. The segment also included lighthearted banter regarding the simultaneous broadcast of ‘La Ruota della Fortuna’ on a competing network, featuring Gerry Scotti.
