Damiano Romano

Damiano Romano is a thirty-year-old man from Salerno, Italy, who gained unexpected fame after attending the Sanremo Music Festival to support his friend Rocco Hunt. During the festival's opening night, he spontaneously shouted a compliment in Campanian dialect, 'Si' 'na preta!', directed at rapper Rose Villain as she descended the stage in a stunning red dress. His enthusiastic remark, which translates to 'You are a stone,' celebrating her beauty, quickly went viral, leading to widespread media attention, social media buzz, and even the creation of merchandise by the artist. Despite the sudden popularity, Damiano has expressed a desire to return to his normal life, managing a family bar near the Arechi Stadium in Salerno.
