AGI – The twist of the last episode of X-Factor 2020 selections arrived yesterday at the end, when Emma, the new judge of the Sky show, chose not to bring Roccuzzo to the lives, broadcast from next Thursday. Giuseppe had presented himself at the first selections, among other things, expressly declaring himself an avid fan of Emma herself, who was struck up to the emotion for his interpretations and for his story as a Sicilian boy who moved to Switzerland to find work and a way to help your family.
The public was also very fond of Giuseppe, returning a disproportionate amount of likes on all social networks, not to mention the video in which he reinterprets “Promettimi” by Elisa, which is currently the most viewed in the history of XFactor Italia on the platform Facebook with over seven million views and eight hundred thousand visits.
It all seemed written, one of those characters who are identified in the selection phase and that the public is waiting for nothing but to see inside the cauldron of the show, grappling with the challenges proposed every week by the judges, as happened in this edition with Casadilego, Lpom, Melacholia and NAIP, all regularly inside distributed in their respective teams.
The story of Roccuzzo, on the other hand, is interrupted at the starting line, something that did not go down at all to the public of X-Factor who yesterday flooded Twitter with messages shouting the hashtag #RoccuzzoGate, entered in a few hours among the trend topics. We reached him on the phone to let us tell his feelings.
No roccuzzo no X factor! Fish it out !!!!!

“For me it is really strange because I had the result a month ago, so I had time to metabolize everything, but yesterday, when I reviewed my performance, I felt like… .in default. I said ‘man, they didn’t understand me’, my vulnerability was passed off as a problem, when in reality I believe it is my strength; after the episode, in fact, the asylum happened, among the trends on Twitter, on Instagram 20 thousand people followed me in 10 hours, I’m shocked “
But this story of vulnerability in your opinion was Emma’s excuse that she preferred others?
“I reiterate that I respect Emma, even if she did not take me into the team, I respect her precisely as an artist and I really wanted to work with her, precisely because of her strength. I think she did not understand my character, because I cannot match the logic: she told me that I am very sensitive and very fragile and there is no time to work with me, while she told Blind that it is very frail and would like to work with him because frailty is beautiful, so I got into a kind of paranoia. Why was I eliminated? I do two accounts. I saw that my videos were the most viewed on the web and then I find myself outside. I felt as if you are climbing a mountain, you are about to see the summit to jump and fly with a parachute and instead someone then takes me by the feet and drags me down. It’s all strange, obviously I have to accept it even if, I’ll tell you the truth, I didn’t understand it “
Raga but why didn’t they take Roccuzzo? But let’s joke #XF2020

Did you have the global vision of what happened, even with respect to the guys in your category, yesterday?
“Yes, the global vision yesterday, then, I’ll tell you the truth, the Last Call moment was very special, because just at the very moment I was entering the villa for the outcome my brother-in-law called me to tell me that my the owner was firing me from my job, because according to him I was going to live at 100% so he thought ‘instead of waiting for his resignation, I’ll fire him’; so I was there in panic for all my story, because in any case I have to support myself, I have to help my family, I have so many things to do, so already there I felt completely displaced. Then I had that premonition that Emma had already told me at bootcamps that she did not know if I was ready for the live, and it was a thing that I had already carried, plus there was the moment when she said no and I was there I didn’t understand anything anymore. Yesterday I started to realize everything, I thought that it is actually really strange, I realize it too “
Right after the elimination were you able to talk to her again, to get more explanations?
“Yes, she was very kind afterwards, in fact I appreciated her. She came, hugged me, told me to continue, not to give up, to come back next year. She encouraged me by telling me that in her opinion I have one of the most beautiful voices in the program, but since times are tight she couldn’t work with me … boh … “
But you, in all honesty, instead of who would you have seen inside?
“Everyone tells me they would have kept me inside instead of someone else but nobody tells me whose! – and laughs – I tell you that at that point they are all good, if there is someone I have to compare to me in terms of artistic path I think I would compare myself with Santi, the red-haired boy, because he makes pop music like me ; he brought a lot of songwriting, but in reality I write even if no one has ever heard my stuff. In fact, I’m sorry not to have gone to live for this, what I showed is 10% of Roccuzzo. Anyway, I would have challenged Santi, many told me they would have wanted me instead of Blue Phelix “
Now your single is out, right?
“It has been out for two weeks on Spotify and now we are doing the video clip, which is a nice video I would add, because it turned out very nice”
