Raffaella Carrà, the testimony that moves everyone: “Without her I would not be here”

Sweet words about the late Raffaella Carrà, from those who loved her and had an excellent career thanks to her

It has now been over a year since his sudden and shocking disappearance. But Raffaella Carrà is still in the hearts of all her fans, of those who appreciated her qualities, both artistic and human.

A real loss for Italian television, because Carrà, in addition to being an excellent and brilliant stage presence, created great television programs (also becoming a heroine in Spain and South America) and also cast excellent protagonists in the world of entertainment.

One of these “creatures” recently returned to talk about Raffa. We refer to the famous television and radio host Alessandro Greco. A talented character who owes his fame and career to Carrà, who started him practically from scratch.

Alessandro Greco remembers Raffaella Carrà: the testimony is tearful

Just Alessandro Greco, interviewed by Pierluigi Diaco during the Bella Ma program broadcast on Thursday, wanted to remember his godmother in the world of entertainment.

Raffaella Carrà launched a very young Greco on television at the time, giving him space and confidence with his playful presenting skills and powerful, warm voice. A confidence that Alessandro will never forget. Alessandro Greco (Rai screen)

“The fact that I feel emotional remembering her stems from a deep affection and a feeling of gratitude towards her. I wouldn’t be here today without her. I believe Raffaella saw my sensitivity and that she understood from the first times I was tested the fact that with my limits, my faults, my bad inclinations, I am nevertheless a good person”.

Alessandro Greco then told a sweet anecdote about Raffaella Carrà and the affection that ran between the two: “When Lorenzo, my second son, was born in 1998, Raffaella immediately wanted to know him, meet him, hold him in his arm. He took it with incredible kindness and asked my wife Beatrice and me if she could change it”.

The testimony of a brilliant, courageous person, but at the same time also gentle and full of feelings. How much we miss a Raffaella on our TV…
