Emma Marrone backs Stefano De Martino ahead of Sanremo 2027

Emma Marrone told Vanity Fair that she frequently speaks with television presenter Stefano De Martino about his preparation for hosting the 2027 Sanremo Music Festival. She said he calls her often to discuss song choices and rehearsal plans, and she urged him to focus on authenticity, thorough study and performing with heart. Marrone noted that criticism is inevitable for high‑profile hosts, citing other personalities who have faced similar media scrutiny, and stressed that success will depend on the quality of the songs rather than personal reputations. She also referenced differing media treatment for figures like Belen Rodriguez, but declined to confirm any personal involvement in the festival herself.
