An almost two-hour chat during which Benjamin Mascolo talked about everything, starting from his love life. Which, in this specific case, means his three years of love with Bella Thorne, half of which characterized by threesomes, which – according to the singer of the former duo Benji and Fede – led to the end of the story with actress, met at the American music festival Coachella. «She is bisexual, she likes girls as well as men – Mascolo tellsl podcast “One More Time” by Luca Casadei – . She was often alone in America and she suffers a lot from being alone, so there were calls on the phone for hours in which she was crying and telling me “I’m alone”. One day she asks me if she can go out with a girl. At that moment I say yes. I wanted to make her happy, but I realized later that I suffered a bit of this as jealousy. There was a time when she went with other girls while I was in Italy. Then it happened that we had sexual relations together with other girls. At first one thinks “How cool. I’m engaged, in love and moreover I sleep with other women: models, actresses…”. You feel cool. I didn’t realize that that thing was slowly eroding our intimacy.”
The two even got engaged, but then the relationship fell apart and Benji admits that it was also his fault. «As an immature person, I didn’t know how to handle the situation – he explains -. I started seeing girls at parties and thinking “I wonder what she’s like, maybe we could take her to bed together”. I had entered that loop, very wrong. This made the relationship toxic, largely through my fault. I felt like a kid in a chocolate factory, so I gorged myself on everything. We have suffered our very intense lifestyle.” The breakup was accompanied by a period of great personal distress, which led the singer to use drugs. «I started using amphetamines and methamphetamines. Two or three times a week I took psychedelic mushrooms. I started with ecstasy. Bella told me “Until you solve your drug problems, we can’t live together anymore.” I went to live in a hotel, in Beverly Hills, with a friend with a drug problem. Many times I was afraid of dying. I almost died of an overdose. At that moment I was repeating in my head “I want to live, I want to live”».
The last meeting with Thorne takes place under the influence of ecstasy and does not go well at all: Benji strips naked after climbing over the fence of the property, scaring the actress to death. Back in Italy, he decides to throw everything away and clean himself up. «I have been sober since June 19, 2022. Right choice.” Today he has a new girlfriend and has started making music again, but far from Fede, because the duo broke up in 2020 due to differences of opinion (“I was trying to carve out a space for myself also as a singer, but Fede didn’t agree”), but Benji’s hope is to return to work with what was first a friend and then a brother. «He is a special person – he confesses – and I owe him a lot. Without him I wouldn’t be where I am today, I love him with all my heart, even if we argued.”
