Adriano Celentano has a whole era on stage and cinema – his songs are listened to all over the world and his roles in films are admired by millions of viewers. Although Celentano, who is 85 years old, has given up active concert activity, fans of his talent still have the opportunity to enjoy his work “live”. Adolfo Sebastiani, the official double of the popular Italian, will perform on March 26, 2024 in Riga, in the Great Guild, on March 27 in Liepāja and on March 30 in the Daugavpils Palace of Culture.

In 2002, it was announced that a contract had been signed with Adolfo Sebastiani, the official double of the popular Italian. It was he who had to perform some duties for Celentano, to free him a little from pressing matters. Sebastiani is a true replica of Adriano Celentano. Not only the appearance, height, body structure, weight, but also the voice is identical. Thanks to his musical and acting talent, Adolfo created the group “Adriano Celentano Tribute”, which is very popular. Live sound, bright concert numbers, excellent show ballet and, most importantly, Adriano Celentano’s magnificent repertoire – all these are undoubted advantages of the “Adriano Celentano Tribute” team, the organizers inform.

Adolfo’s resemblance to Adriano is striking, and not only in appearance and voice. In his homeland, Adriano Celentano received the nickname Molleggiato, which can be translated as “on springs”, for his stage movements. Adolfo completely adopted the singer’s unique mannerisms. The aura of the concert is also created by Sebastiani’s sincere way of communicating with the audience, and at the end of the concert he holds a photo session in the image of Celentano.

Adriano Celentano can certainly be called one of the symbols of modern Italy. On January 6, 2023, the legendary actor and singer turned 85 years old, and despite the fact that the last film with his participation was in 1992, his world fame does not fade. Adriano is loved and known all over the world for his sparkling comedies, voice and his unique sense of humor.

Adriano was born in Milan on Befano Day, which in Italy is considered a day of laughter and jokes. He became the youngest in the family – he has four brothers and sisters. The family lived very poorly. Therefore, at the age of 12, the future actor was forced to leave school and get a job as a watchmaker’s apprentice. From childhood, the boy showed an obvious talent as an actor. For example, he often impersonated the famous American comedian Jerry Lewis. Adriano’s sister once sent his photo to a competition of Lewis’s peers, Celentano won and won a prize of 100,000 lire.

Adriano Celentano himself has more than 40 films to his credit. During his acting career, he managed to appear in front of the audience in various forms. But one of the most unusual tasks was the role of a monkey in the movie “Bingo Bongo”, because the actor did not have to learn the text – throughout the film, his character only makes animal sounds.

Celentano himself considers himself more of a musician and singer than an actor. And in the field of music, he achieved enormous success. For example, he became one of the first to perform rock and roll and rap in Italian. At the beginning of the 70s, Adriano recorded a composition called “Prisencolinensinainciusol”, the text of which was made up of made-up words that do not mean anything. In this way, the singer wanted to show the disagreement of people. The song was performed as a recitative and became one of the musician’s first rap experiments. By the way, “Prisenkolinensinainciusol” topped the European charts for a long time and even entered the American charts. In some of his other songs, Celentano used several times his self-invented “Celentanesque” language, a peculiar mixture of Italian and English.

Throughout his career, Adriano recorded more than 600 songs and more than 30 albums. Celentano’s hits like “Susanna”, “Amore No”, “Il Tempo Se Ne Va”, “Soli”, “Azzurro”, “Una Festa Sui Prati”, “Ciao Ragazzi” and many others conquered the whole world.

He met his wife, actress Claudia Mori, on the set of “Some Strange Guy”. At that time, she was not yet 20 years old – she was six years younger than Adriano. He immediately started flirting with the girl and asked her out, but Claudia was put off by his rather shocking behavior, his reputation as a hooligan and a hooligan. But the result is that the couple has been together for 56 years. Over the years, Claudia has become not only a wife and mother, but also a true mentor to Adriano. She was involved in creating his image, was a producer and muse. She is also the director of the family recording studio “Clan Celentano”. Adriano and Claudia have three children – son Giacomo and daughters Rosita and Rosalind. All three have followed in their parents’ footsteps. Rosita has acted in movies and is now a radio host. Giacomo is an actor and singer. Rosalind is an actress and artist.

Adriano continues to make music. In 2019, he released the music album “Adrian”, which included the soundtracks for his new work of art, the animated series “Adrian”, drawn in a cyberpunk style. Celentano acted as the project’s director, producer and screenwriter. However, the stage legend stopped his active concert activity, especially outside Italy, because he suffers from aerophobia – the fear of flying in an airplane.
