Are you ready for the new season of Striscia la notizia? The first Tapiro d’oro of season 37 goes to Maria Rosaria Boccia for her involvement in the case that led to Gennaro Sangiuliano’s resignation as minister. This Tapiro is no ordinary one – it’s personalized to perfection. With infamous spy glasses that Boccia used to wear even in Parliament, a scar on the forehead similar to the ex-minister’s, a golden ring on the nose (a nod to Sangiuliano’s missing wedding band that he claims Boccia stole and hid), and a Golden Key from Pompeii on the back (given to Sangiuliano while Boccia was by his side during the ceremony) that plays the melody of “Passion Flower”, reminiscing their time together in Sanremo, the city of flowers.
Caught in Rome by Valerio Staffelli, Boccia denies taking Sangiuliano’s ring: “I didn’t take it, but this will be clarified in due time.” When Staffelli, astonished by the length of Boccia’s nails, asks about the scar on the ex-minister’s forehead, seen on Tg1 a few days ago, she replies, “Shall we try it out? Let’s simulate with you…” She also denies any romantic involvement with the Minister of Agriculture, Francesco Lollobrigida. Another rumor debunked is that Sangiuliano’s hair transplant, carried out months ago, was to conceal head wounds from a fight. The full report will air tonight on the first episode of Striscia la notizia – the voice of conspiracy.
