The mayor of Naples, Gaetano Manfredi, intervenes in the debate that has taken hold after the participation of the Neapolitan tiktoker Rita de Crescenzo in the program hosted by Massimo Giletti.
Asked about the choice of de Crescenzo as a representative figure of the city, Manfredi clarified: "I don't think Rita de Crescenzo is the face of Naples. Our city is made up of many souls and faces. Folklore, while fascinating, is often what's most popular outside, especially abroad, where they tend to paint us as folkloristic."
The mayor stressed that Naples is much more than what is often shown in the media and entertainment programs. "Naples is something else entirely, and Neapolitans and all those who work and operate for the good of the city know it.", he added Manfredi, referring to the daily reality of those who live and contribute to the growth of the city.
