In the last few hours the video of the performance of Antonia Noccasecond classified of the last edition of Friends of Maria De Filippiat the concert of Milan Pride 2025which was held on Saturday 28 June at the Arco della Pace.
Here, the young singer performed on the notes of two of the songs contained in his debut EP, Relax And Romanticbringing home-between the disbelief of those present-two seriously insufficient performances on a technical-vocal level, if we want to say it with a school language. Alternatively … from Karaoke.
In fact, within the school of Friends, Antonia He had accustomed the audience from home to still standard. Or, at least, so it had been made us believe. Because – beyond the technical problems also reported by other artists climbed on the stage of Milan Pride 2025 (Levante: “Unfortunately, base in Cinisello Balsamo and voice at the Arco della Pace“) – The gap between the performances of last Saturday and those on the stage of Friends And Abysmalas he sings Tananai.
Let's go back, therefore, to the much discussed post-production of which the talent show of Maria De Filippi It seems to be abused to guarantee a high -level show. But the truth is that this practice is not good for anyone: neither to the young “talents” who take part – which is often made to believe they have gold uvula, only to be whistled in the square – nor to the program itself, which risks losing the loyalty of their audience, confused by the lack of correspondence between the narrative carried forward on TV and the reality of the facts.
Antonia It is therefore the real voice of Friends 24? The answer is no. And here, you will forgive me, but I cannot fail to consider Nicolò Filippuccieliminated – unjustly – during the semifinal of the program from the jury. Here, to be honest, he is perhaps the real vocal talent of this edition and has shown it even when it was deprived of post-production, contrary to Antoniawhose slips during the talent final (the only episode live and without post-production) have left many speechless.
The fault, however, is not of Antoniawhich is still 19 years old and the possibility of studying and perfectly perfected. The problem is having made the program an apparent happy oasis in which the errors are rattle with post-production, the editorial playlists Spotify and the radio passages come thanks to the ability to recover the landlady and the journalists present up with “Brav*/wonderful*/I have chills“.
We will also be biased, but the comment made by our director returns to us, Massimiliano Longoduring the final of Friends 24:
“Outside here, as Maria says, there is true hell. Many want to sing, even too many in my opinion. Outside here there are the record companies, the radio, the live, the social networks … take example from your colleagues dancers, who are a symbol of tenacity, perseverance and sacrifice. Study every day, every day, because it is only so that you can aspire to remain in this working world”.
Words spoken with Antonia careful e Trigno who, filmed by the camera, laughed at it. But, given this recent live performance a Subasio radiothere is very little to laugh.

Antonia Nocca in the cyclone vortex for the performance at Milan Pride 2025
The answer of Antonia The hundreds of messages and comments received, sometimes the result of excessive repressed anger, was not long in coming:
“Friends was a path of growth. I really came from my bedroom and it was a change of total life. I feel grown on artistic level, very, but also on a personal level.
And, for the first time, I managed to see some things alone and to build things on my own, for the love of music. This is the fourth time I sing in a square and it is beautiful, because I think this is the square where I sang with more people. I always hope you arrive what I mean. Pride for me is love“.
