Mara Venier stars in new self-deprecating promo for Domenica In

Mara Venier is the subject of a new self-deprecating promotional spot for the television program ‘Domenica In’. The sketch features Venier alongside Angelo Mellone, the Director of Daytime Entertainment at Rai, and addresses the long-running joke regarding her frequent announcements that she would eventually leave the show.

In the video, Mellone jokes about the casting process for the upcoming season and questions why Venier continues to host despite claiming for four years that this would be her final edition. Venier responds with humor, stating that she is still present for the time being.

The promotion follows an editorial by Mario Manca for Vanity Fair, who praised the presenter, stating she is ‘a step ahead of many of her colleagues’. Manca noted that despite Venier’s previous interviews expressing a desire to retire and move to Santo Domingo to care for her husband, she remains a consistent and successful fixture of the program.
