Roberta Bonanno

Italian singer and talent show contestant, Roberta Bonanno (Milan, October 22, 1985) became known to TV audiences as a contestant in the 2007-2008 season of the extremely popular talent show Amici di Maria di Filippi(formerly known as Saranno Famosi). One of the most visible members of the cast, she eventually ended up second, losing the final to favorite Marco Carta. Still, Bonanno attracted considerable attention from the entertainment industry and was offered a recording deal by Sony BMG Italy. Her first EP Non Ho Più Paura was released in July 2008, to moderate success. ~ Mariano Prunes
