One hundred Iene (Iene) gathered tonight in memory of Nadia Toffa, one of their most beloved. It was the tribute from the family of "Le Iene Show," whose new season premiere airs tonight on Italia 1 at 9:25 PM, to the host who died last August at the age of 40. From Luciana Littizzetto to Simona Ventura, Claudio Bisio, Alessandro Cattelan, Geppi Gucciari, Luca and Paolo, Enrico Lucci, Fabio Volo, Enrico Brignano—a long list of everyone who collaborated on the program over 23 years—they gathered for a big hug, wearing their Le Iene uniforms. During the first episode of the show, airing every Tuesday and hosted by Alessia Marcuzzi and Nicola Savino, accompanied by the vocals of Gialappa's band, Nadia Toffa's last video was also broadcast. "Le Iene" creator and project manager is Davide Parenti. Directed by Antonio Monti.

“We thought a lot about how to start this episode without her,” Alessia Marcuzzi began with tears in her eyes, “many here knew her better than me, I hope I can say what I think, as best I can. We wanted to be here and somehow – I know it’s impossible – celebrate life. This is what Nadia wanted. She always said that. She always smiled. She always had a smile plastered on her face. Her smile was genetic. We will try but our smile will never be the same as our heart. Nadia had told everyone that she had the most terrible of illnesses but she always had hope of making it. Even though some of us knew, when the news arrived, it was a huge blow. For you too. Your affection was a huge thing and that was important. Thanks to that you gave us.”

Nadia knew that her cancer – she called it by its name – would not give her another year to live and even when she was playing she said 'go to Google and type in the disease that came to me', the only thing that happens is that you are short of breath and you have to know, We all see Nadia as a fighter, the one from the investigations, a fighter. But she cried too. She never showed it to you. Her head was spinning too and she was missing her smile. What did that warrior decide to do? She decided that she had to go on smiling and not give life to the tumor. So she started working and not feel ashamed. She wanted to remember that many fight, with great dignity and strength, this disease. She always said that it is not how long you live that matters but how you live. Nadia has always done what she wanted to do in her life. She wanted to be a hyena since she was a student. She wanted to wear this jacket and this tie”. Marcuzzi is crying. He hugs Simona Ventura. He looks back at the camera and adds, “She’s looking at us now, and she’s laughing, saying ‘look at what these idiots are doing!’ I know you’re looking at us. You’re a magical girl. It filled our hearts. We salute you, Nadia.”
