‘My name is Vittorio. I’m a (tenor and) sex addict’
mainSignore Grigolo has been talking to Italian Vanity Fair. Indiscreetly.
I’m difficult to be with. I believe in fidelity, but that’s easier said than done. I like women. Yesterday I went out with a friend and he asked me how was it possible not to fall in love and become imprisoned by a woman; I told him, “Fall in love with another.”
The comments were intended light-heartedly, say Team Grigolo.

Disarming candour from the tenor. I’m left admiring him for the lack of pretension.
Not a sex addict, necessarily–but rather a PR flak’s idea of a hausfrau’s “dreamboat.”
Omnis vita artis imitatio.
Not for nothing is Grigolo an outstanding Duke of Mantua, and it would be great to see him cast as Don Giovanni.
Don Giovanni:
È tutto amore!
Chi a una sola è fedele,
verso l’altre è crudele:
io che in me sento
sì esteso sentimento,
vo’ bene a tutte quante.
Duca di Mantova:
“Questa o quella per me pari sono
a quant’altre d’intorno, d’intorno mi vedo;
del mio core l’impero non cedo
meglio ad una che ad altra beltà.
La costoro avvenenza è qual dono
di che il fato ne infiora la vita;
s’oggi questa mi torna gradita,
forse un’altra, forse un’altra doman lo sarà,
un’altra, forse un’altra doman lo sarà.”
Perhaps Vanity Fair should interview Lorenzo Da Ponte and Francesco Maria Piave? They make great copy.
Finally! A tenor who admits what everyone already knew!
Yes darling, and women are angels… absolutely innocent in every conceivable way….
Women too, lying pigs.
No man ever threw his undies onto the stage at a pop concert.
That you know of.
They wouldn’t be a man if they did.
This is open to discussion
Perhaps this is what destroyed his marriage.
Unfortunately someone or some company is managing his Wikipedia page so that no “Personal Life” section is allowed.
I can’t help thinking of the great Anna Russell …
“Yes darling, and women are angels… absolutely innocent in every conceivable way….” – My comment was in response to someone who said “Men are pigs…”, which seems to have disappeared from this forum…
