Less than a month after the death of his brother Evan, who died in an accident, Andrea Delogu back on track Dancing with the stars. Difficult choices, made to breathe, to “live in the world”, as he himself said in one of the most exciting episodes of this edition of the program Milly Carlucci.
One night where even Martina Colombari she shared intimate parts of her life and her fragility, Delogu’s story hit the public like a punch in the gut. A confession hurtfulheld up with great difficulty, arriving just before the show.
“My life ended with that phone call”
“My sister suddenly died and my life changed forever“, says Delogu in the introductory clip. The news was given to him by Fatherwith words which, he said, protected him from shock: “I can never thank him enough because he used the right words“. The voice broke and tears flowed: “My little brother is really cool. He is a part of me, he was and is“.
Then his promise, almost like a request for respect: “This was the last time I talked about my sister on camera. There’s nothing to say. I hope anyone who hasn’t tried it never does“. The real truth, said without rhetoric: “My life ended with that phone call, and now another call has begun“.
Personal pain and return to work
Delogu explained that sorrowfrom now on, it will be something to be grateful for: “This grief should be personal and I experienced my own pain“. And he explained why he decided to return to dancing: “I went back to work because the pain couldn’t be controlled at home. Being in the world is good for me. I went home tired from the choreography, but with my mind full of other things. I know I made the right choice and I know I want to smile again“.
Performances and tears
On stage, Andrea danced a waltz with the maestro Nikita Perotti. The performance ended with uncontrollable tears and thunderous applause from the audience, moved by her fragile strength, by the humility that became courage. The jury can only recognize it. Selvaggia Lucarelli he told her: “You celebrate the scary normalcy that lives on. No one will find your sincerity inconsistent.
This politeness is brave.”
The words that accompanied Andrea outside from the trackin a way that does not erase the pain, but tries to transform it, making it possible to breathe, at least for a few dance steps.
