MILAN, Italy — Rocco Siffredi has revealed two new upcoming titles for the Italian and U.S. markets, “Rocco e Malena, Su e Giù per l'Italia Scambista" (“Rocco and Malena, Up and Down Swinger Italy”) and “Rocco's Sex Clinic: Treatment 2," the latter for Evil Angel.
The global superstar revealed the projects this week through a lengthy feature for Italian lifestyle magazine MOW, one of the few local mainstream publications to provide up-to-date coverage of the adult industry.
The feature, penned by Niccolò Fantini, is titled "Rocco, the President of All Italian (Porn Actresses)” after his recent announcement that he was running for President of the Republic.
As XBIZ reported last week, Siffredi told his fellow Italians via a social media video, “I will be your candidate. For a hard Italy. For an Italy that can go back to the way things were. Guys, you know it — to make things fun, who better than me?”
Siffredi, a household name in his native country, where he has achieved first-name-alone recognition status, ended up receiving at least two votes from the parliamentary electors, before President Sergio Mattarella’s appointment was renewed over the weekend.
“I may have gotten more, but the politician in charge suddenly decided to read my name as ‘null’ because it’s an artistic name and not a legal name,” Siffredi, who was born Rocco Antonio Tano, told XBIZ on Thursday. “They are saying that some of the ‘null’ votes were probably also for me.”
As for the new project, Siffredi told MOW he is excited to be introducing a new Italian performer, Marika Milani. “Her smile reminds me a little of Moana [Pozzi],” he added, comparing the newcomer to Italy’s legendary Golden Age (1980s-1990s) megastar.
Siffredi also sang the praises of the three Southern Italian actresses who joined him for Evil Angel’s "Rocco's Sex Clinic: Treatment 2," Valentina Nappi, Malena and Martina Smeraldi.
