Overview

  • Salerno unveiled 'Bollente' this summer in collaboration with producer Ludwig, marking her latest single following her 1986 breakout hit 'Sexy Girl'.
  • She received a breast cancer diagnosis about a year ago, underwent surgery, and is now on a five-year hormone therapy regimen with side effects she mitigates through daily exercise and upcoming medical checkups.
  • The singer acknowledges using her physique as a marketing strategy, emphasizes she has never undergone breast augmentation, and affirms she would disclose any cosmetic procedure openly.
  • Salerno condemns sexist scrutiny of women’s bodies, praises Elodie’s vocal talent, and argues that attacks on female artists often serve as excuses to undermine them.
  • She credits Claudio Cecchetto with discovering her in 1986 and helping launch her into international Italo-disco fame that has endured four decades.
