The 5 most absurd moments of the third night of Sanremo

Yesterday may have been one of the strangest evenings in Sanremo ever. Teresa Mannino did whatever came to her mind, and the competing singers as well, abandoning all inhibitions in favor of their position in the Fantasanremo rankings. Even the international guest of the third night, Russel Crowe, surprised everyone, bringing one of the most bizarre moments live on television. As always, we've gathered for you the 5 most unforgettable moments of Sanremo, this time including the final rankings.

Russel Crowe mocks the John Travolta gag

Both Amadeus and Fiorello realized the shallowness of the "gag" of the Ballo del Qua Qua with John Travolta from the previous evening. However, no one would have ever expected to find the second international guest, Russel Crowe, mocking it during his appearance on Eurovision. The actor referenced Travolta by mimicking the dance and saying, while looking at the audience, "What the f**?", eliciting laughter from the entire audience and Amadeus, who gave him a high five. How many points does this iconic moment score at Fantasanremo?

Emma Marrone kisses Giuliano Sangiorgi

Last night in Sanremo, the absurdities were on full display. The challenges launched by Fantasanremo were the protagonists, and all the singers took control of their scores yesterday evening, bringing out heavy artillery. Emma Marrone, in sunglasses and a pink dress, handed a pencil to Amadeus before introducing Negramaro and, as if that wasn't enough, kissed Giuliano Sangiorgi. The group La Sad stole Giulia Salemi's bag, who was sitting among the audience, while Dargen D'Amico continued his campaign for points undeterred. The singer, competing with "Onda Alta," brought pencils, swore, all while wearing his iconic sunglasses. If these were last night's crazy levels, we dare not think about what will happen during the final.

Angelina Mango's incredible performance

In a miniskirt and platform heels, with the braids and confidence of a singer who knows the Ariston like the back of her hand, Angelina Mango delivered a frightening performance at the Festival. Apart from her impeccable voice, what convinced the Sanremo audience, which gave her a partial standing ovation, and the televoting, was also the choreography, a free and unscrupulous dance to the tune of "La Noia". Not bad for her first Sanremo.

The Teresa Mannino show

She's been making headlines since she entered the press room hours earlier. Teresa Mannino brought to the stage a show completely out of the ordinary, honest, and light-hearted. She quickly picked up on Il Volo, danced, threw jabs at the "useless" sketches, typical of the event, exasperated Amadeus, and gave a biology lesson to the entire audience. One of the most beloved co-hosts in recent years, she left a smile on the face of the entire audience.

The audience's strong reaction to the third rankings

Tonight, after the performances of all the singers, Amadeus and Teresa Mannino presented the updated rankings. It took into account the televoting and radio voting, but despite being a partial result, the audience in the room and online had strong reactions. At the top appeared Angelina Mango, praised by those present at the Ariston who called out her name, while the announcement of the following positions (Ghali, Alessandra Amoroso, Il Tre, and Mr. Rain) received discontented shouts. According to the audience ratings, the most popular continues to be Geolier.
