Don’t say I’m a racist, it’s a heresy


Less than twenty-four hours from his disqualification from Big Brother Vip, Fausto Leali reached by Adnkronos vents on what happened. And he expresses all his disappointment at having passed through the homes of millions of Italians as a person racist, after calling Enock, Mario Balotelli’s brother, “We * ro ‘. Words that cost him the expulsion from reality a few days from the start. “But how can you say I’m a racist?”, the singer is justified.

I was wrong because the term I used, ‘negro’, is now considered offensive. But the truth is, I’ve spent so much time with African American musicians that I’ve always joked with that term as one of them.

Fausto Leali’s words on the relationship with Enock

That his intentions were not racist, the public perhaps sensed. But as Alfonso Signorini wanted to explain to him during the live broadcast, using that term lightly means underestimating the historical and social context in which we live. To Enock, anyway, Fausto Leali he promised to meet again soon in Brescia. He confirmed that relations with him are good at Adnkronos:

We had a wonderful relationship with Enock. We often played and joked together. However, I unintentionally broke the rules and accept the verdict. Also willingly because I am happy to return to my wife and the rest of my family. But don’t say that Fausto LEALI is a racist because it is a heresy.

Fausto Leali on the experience at GfVip

“The problem is that after two days of having the microphone 24 hours a day you forget it and end up talking without much attention, as if you were relaxed at home. But if you say shit at home with friends, you have time to say: I have wrong. Not there “, admits Leali toAdnkronos. Already during the live broadcast in the house, the singer had expressed his discomfort and had shown almost regret having taken part in the reality show:

It’s hard. More than I thought. There it is full of young people who do gymnastics from morning to night but after 10 minutes of stretching I don’t know what to do. In short, unfortunately I was not at ease.

Leali clarifies the sentences about Mussolini

But there is a proceeding. To weigh on him were not only the sentences directed to Enock in fact, but also the speeches on the Mussolini regime and on what good it would do for our country. On this too, Fausto Leali clarified: “There was a misunderstanding, I explained myself badly also because I made a wrong interpretation of a documentary I had seen. And I also understand the reactions because it is a historical period that is better to forget”. But on his political opinion he did not unbalance:

The vote is secret. Politics is not my field. I’ve never lined up and won’t start now.
