Maria De Filippi and the secret ‘alter ego’ in Belve. The TV presenter returned to the Rai 2 studios for a new face-to-face meeting with her friend Francesca Fagnani, taking the opportunity to reveal a hobby that had been kept secret.
De Filippi arrived at the studio with his tablet on which he admitted he had spent the entire evening playing burraco online, obviously under a fake identity. “I call myself ‘Cattivik’ and can play for up to two hours in a row, especially at night,” ironically, referring to the nickname inspired by the comic book character created by Bonvi in 1965 and drawn by Silver.
A fun little scene also involves the landlady, Fagnani, who approaches De Filippi and his tablet to interact with a “virtual friend”. Maria De Filippi in perfect ‘Mr Robot’ style played without revealing her true identity. At that time Fagnani provoked the presenter: “Write to him that you are Maria De Filippi”. The presenter did. The answer on the other side? Frosty: “Yeah, and I know his dad.”
