AI-generated summary
Such and such show is an Italian television program in which contestants perform imitations of famous singers, judged by a jury. The program is hosted by Carlo Conti and broadcast on Rai 1.
Competing in the new edition of Tale e Quale Show are Jasmine Carrisi, Maddalena Corvaglia, Roberta Morise, Paola Perego, Anna Pettinelli, Selma Ezzine, Stefano Meloccaro, Max Paiella, Andrea Perroni and Vladimir Randazzo.
They are joined by the couple formed by Flavio Insinna and Gabriele Cirilli, who returns to the program by popular demand.
Among the most anticipated names is Paola Perego, a presenter who over the course of her career has spanned television, entertainment and reality shows. After his debut on the Mediaset networks, he worked for a long time at Rai hosting programs such as Mattina in famiglia, Mezzogiorno in famiglia and Scomtiamo che...?. Over the years he has also hosted La Talpa, Citofonare Rai2 and The Floor. It is not his first experience in a television talent show: in the past he also participated in Dancing with the Stars.
Roberta Morise also knows the world of entertainment well and, above all, that of Carlo Conti. After participating in Miss Italia in 2004, she was a chorister in I recommendation and worked on L'anno che come. She subsequently became one of the teachers of L'Eredità and participated in programs such as The Best Years, I Fatti Vostri and Camper.
Among the competitors there is also Selma Ezzine, a singer of Moroccan origin born in 2004, winner of the fourth edition of Dalla strada al stage. For her Tale e Quale show represents a new opportunity to measure herself with the repertoire of great performers and with the mechanism of imitations.
Anna Pettinelli brings her long experience in radio and television to the stage. Speaker, presenter and commentator, she began working with Gianni Boncompagni at Discoring and then became one of the most recognizable voices on RDS. From 2019 to 2024 she was also a singing coach on Amici.
Then there is Jasmine Carrisi, daughter of Al Bano Carrisi and Loredana Lecciso. Born in 2001, he embarked on a musical career in 2020 after a first film experience and also participated in The Masked Singer and Dancing with the Stars in Georgia. In 2025 he joined his father as a coach on The Voice Senior.
Among the competitors there is also Max Paiella, singer, imitator and author of radio characters, best known for The Rabbit's Roar. He has worked on television on A Fistful of Books, Talk to Me, Aniene, The Show Must Go Off and Gazebo. He is also the singer of the Blue Willies, the band of Claudio Gregori, aka Greg.
Finally, a couple now familiar to the audience of Tale e che show returns: Flavio Insinna and Gabriele Cirilli. Insinna, actor and presenter, has been the protagonist of programs such as Affari Tuoi and L'Eredità, as well as numerous Rai dramas. Cirilli is instead one of the veterans of the show, in which over the years he has tried his hand at some of the most original and surprising imitations.
The revolution also concerns the jury bench. Cristiano Malgioglio is the only one confirmed from the previous lineup. At his side arrive Elettra Lamborghini and Alessandro Siani, who take the place of Alessia Marcuzzi and Giorgio Panariello.
Lamborghini thus once again enters the group of leading faces of Rai entertainment, while Siani brings an openly comical component to the show.
Furthermore, the mechanism of the surprise judge remains: a different presence in the various episodes, called to express their ranking and participate in the game with personal judgments and preferences.
For the first episode, the special judge will be Fabio Fazio. His presence had been announced by Carlo Conti a week in advance, also as a sign of collaboration between different programs and networks. In fact, Fazio will return from 11 October with Che tempo che fa on NOVE and discovery+.
The competitors will perform strictly live, accompanied by the orchestra directed by maestro Pinuccio Pirazzoli. The choreography is entrusted to Fabrizio Mainini, while the dance troupe will accompany the transformations of the protagonists.
The work done during the week will also be fundamental. The competitors will be followed by vocal coaches Dada Loi, Antonella Pepe, Matteo Becucci and Antonio Mezzancella, while the actor coach will be Emanuela Aureli.
The objective will not only be to reproduce the voice of the assigned artist, but to reconstruct his movements, stage presence, look and interpretative characteristics.
