Fedez and Selvaggia Lucarelli dispute
Overview
The public dispute between Italian rapper Fedez and journalist Selvaggia Lucarelli has expanded from legal battles to social media confrontations regarding content censorship.
Initially, the conflict involved legal proceedings after Fedez filed a lawsuit against Lucarelli, alleging ‘abuse of the journalistic profession.’ While a judge had previously archived the case, Fedez’s legal team filed an opposition to that decision. This tension follows Lucarelli’s prior investigations into the ‘pandoro gate’ controversy.
Following the release of the second season of the Prime Video show ‘Roast in Peace’, the dispute shifted to the entertainment sphere. Fedez claimed that certain jokes, including one directed at Lucarelli and another regarding Jeff Bezos, were omitted or edited down due to ‘editing requirements.’ In one instance, Fedez suggested that future guests like Marco Cappato would be ‘already seen’ because Lucarelli had already appeared on the show.
Lucarelli dismissed these explanations on Instagram, asserting the segments were cut because they were ‘simply poorly written’ and failed to receive laughter from the studio audience, characterizing the reaction as ‘weak and embarrassed.’
Fedez further escalated the dispute by alleging that participants in the first season, specifically naming Lucarelli and Francesco Totti, imposed ‘vetos’ on sensitive or uncomfortable subjects. He contrasted this with the second season, where he claimed no such boundaries existed. Lucarelli has denied these allegations, stating she never requested any constraints or conditions from the production regarding the show’s content.
In a recent podcast appearance, Fedez also addressed allegations regarding political influence, denying that his business activities are tied to political parties or state contracts.
