Laura Pausini's 'slap' to Adriana Lastra at the expense of Bella Ciao

• TV Controversy in networks why Laura Pausini did not want to sing the Bella Ciao in El Hormiguero

When this Monday

sat in

with the rest of the

of

, surely at no time did she think that her refusal to sing the

was going to place her on the target of criticism and controversy.

It was a request from

, who I don't think he thought about the mess he was going to cause his great friend.

The

returned with

and Spain became a

, but the Bella Ciao has a lot of history behind it, much more than the script of a group led by The Professor to rob the Bank of Spain.

Lets start by the beginning.

It all started when

proposed a game to the

of

.

The interviewees were divided into pairs:

with

and

with

.

The game was called

and consisted of the ants saying a word and each team had to sing a song that included it.

At one point in the test,

and

began to sing the

.

"No, no, no, no. It's a very political song and I don't want to sing political songs," justified the Italian interpreter.

Seeing her reaction,

quickly went on to another song and it seemed that she was going to stay there, but no.

's refusal

to sing the

provoked a barrage of criticism on social networks, for a change too, which was further inflamed when the socialist deputy and former deputy secretary of the PSOE,

, wrote a tweet referring to

in these terms: "Refusing to sing an anti-fascist song says a lot about Mrs.

, and nothing positive".

Why do we want more?

There is nothing we like more on

than a politician, whether from one side or the other, getting involved in the controversy of the moment to fuel even more those desire for Twitter war to which we should already be more than accustomed.

3,729 likes and counting.

Although also thousands of responses from

fans (and also from those who don't) standing up for the artist.

And in the face of such a stir,

could have let the storm pass, but no, either.

decided to respond and explain again in case it wasn't enough to say that she didn't want to sing a political song (it seems that no, it wasn't enough).

Laura Pausini's response to criticism for not singing the Bella Ciao

So just as

and thousands of others used Twitter to attack

, the Italian artist used it to explain herself again.

He did not quote

, but in the face of the stir created by

's explanation

became more of a direct response: "I don't sing political songs, neither on the right nor on the left. What I think of life is I've been singing for 30 years. That fascism is an absolute shame seems obvious to everyone.

. Don't invent what I'm not."

Clearer water.

First, the fact that

and

sang the

and invited

to join them, in no case had any political intention behind it.

did not choose the

with the original meaning of the song, but with the meaning that

has given to a song of which there are actually two versions.

The version that has nothing to do with the struggle, nor with the resistance, nor with the Italian partisans, the one that responds to

, composed by composed in 1951 by

and that talks about how beauty is lost when working in such a hard 'lavoro', and that goes like this:

Alla mattina appena rise, or beautiful ciao, beautiful ciao

In the morning, barely up, oh bye-bye beauty, bye-bye

beauty, bye-bye beauty, bye-bye, in the morning just up,

I must go to work.)

(To work, to the rice paddy, oh goodbye beauty, goodbye beauty beauty

goodbye goodbye goodbye. To work, to the rice paddy,

under the stinging sun).

And the version of

and that it is political.

The version of the Italian partisans, made up of socialists, communists, liberals and anarchists, between 1943 and 1945 who were part of the

, the resistance of Italians

occupying Italy.

Yes, the anti-

, the version of the struggle, the version that in Italy is part of history, the

and the version for which

said no.

Not because she is anti-fascist and not because

is quite the opposite, but because

knows what the

.

Because yes, the

, for many

l behind it, is a political song, and

does not want, she did not want to sing a political song in

because she does not sing political songs from one side or the other.

Do you mean that Laura Pausini is a fascist?

Well, look, no.

It means that

does not sing political songs from one side or the other, period ball.

Una mattina mi son svegliato,

(This morning I woke up,

oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye beautiful! (

)

This morning I woke up

and discovered the invader).

(Oh partisan, I want to go with you,

oh goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye beautiful!

oh partisan, I want to go with you.

Because here I feel like dying.

The curious thing is that the song is Italian, it talks about the Italian resistance, it was a fight cry of the Italian partisans, and it is in Spain where

has been branded as a fascist.

In fact, with the two explanations that

has given , the one from the live show at

and the one afterward on Twitter, I risk my neck that if

and

had sung the version of the rice cookers,

would not have had no problem singing that

.

What would have happened if Laura Pausini sang the Bella Ciao in El Hormiguero?

But then, since that version is not a popular voice, the hymn to the loss of beauty would not have been understood, and today we would be talking about Twitter throwing itself on top of

because she sang an anti-fascist version.

Because the story is not whether

is an anti-fascist song or not, but rather that an internationally recognized artist sang an anti-fascist song without paying attention to whether it was the version of the rice cookers or the version of the partisans, because the case is to stir up.

And since

is stupid, she doesn't even have half a hair, she thought this.

If she sang the partisan

she was going to get the octopus for singing an anti-fascist song.

What she did not think at any time is that because of her refusal they were going to turn her into the new image of fascism.

In her attempt to not position herself, she ended up being positioned and where she didn't want to be.

This summer, at a festival in a town in Spain -after the one where he got involved with

The

They could be images of the Spanish Civil War as they could be images of the Italian fight against the Nazis.

Neither red nor blue.

Images from a Netflix series mixed with images from who knows what war.

And then beeps began to be heard, many stopped dancing and others began to jump absorbed by the force of that moment from

The performance ended and the singer was forced to blurt out "good people of XXXXX, I'm sorry."

Is it now understood why

refused to sing a political song?

This happened in a town with no more than a hundred people, imagine in the most watched program on television, live and with hundreds of fingers waiting to post the tweet that would sink

The problem is that she didn't care if she said she didn't or if she would have sung it because the point is to show off that division.

did not sing it because

knows its meaning perfectly, she knows that division that is increasingly present in Spanish society and she did not want to enter that war that neither goes nor comes to her.

Does anyone believe that yesterday in Italy the one that got mixed up here got mixed up because

refused to sing the

?

Well no.

And nothing more is needed.
