Biography

[edit | edit source]

De Filippi was born in Milan, Lombardy, but grew up in Pavia where her family moved when she was ten years old.[2] She was married to talk show host Maurizio Costanzo until his death in 2023, and has an adopted son.[3][4]

Career

[edit | edit source]

She has hosted numerous shows (mostly talent shows and reality tv) broadcast by Mediaset's Canale 5, such as Uomini e donne and C'e posta per te.[5] Since 2001 she has been a host and producer on the Canale 5 talent show Amici di Maria De Filippi, which was originally titled Saranno famosi.[6][7] Similarly to the American series Fame, it features a school of young aspiring singers and dancers. The artists are divided up in teams, and compete against each other, performing before a live audience and a panel of judges and instructors. Albanian-born dancer Kledi Kadiu was a regular performer on the programme.[8]

In 2001 she hosted the Telegatto with Gerry Scotti.[9] Since 2009 she has also been one of Italia's Got Talent's judges and producers.[10][11][12]

Marco Carta, Valerio Scanu and Emma Marrone participated in the programme Amici, which launched their singing careers. All three of them went on to win first place in the prestigious Sanremo Music Festival in 2009, 2010, and 2012 respectively.[13][14]

The TV shows supported by Maria de Filippi and Fascino PGT's productions include Amici, Uomini e donne, C'è posta per te, Italia's Got Talent, Coca-Cola Summer Festival, Temptation Island, Tú sí que vales, Pequeños gigantes, Maurizio Costanzo Show, L'intervista, Selfie – Le cose cambiano, House Party and Ultima fermata.
