After Amadeus's farewell to the Sanremo Festival, Rai is looking for someone who can live up to the expectations and continue the positive trend set by the host in recent years. The pop turn of the event has definitely favored a younger audience's approach to the Festival, making it more social and youthful also in terms of the singers invited to compete. With the position of artistic director left vacant, many on social media and the web have started to speculate about who could be a worthy successor. During an interview with La Stampa, Morgan stated he would be ready to take on the role of artistic director at Sanremo 2025. «When do we start?» he joked.
Shortly before the start of the proceedings regarding the famous BugoGate at Sanremo 2020, Morgan also stated how, in his opinion, his action «benefited the career» of his colleague through a spectacle. «Bugo, who has just released his album or is about to, I don't know, is promoting it and forgets that that evening at the Festival I did him a favor by making a spectacle; I found the kindest way to make him realize that he was really behaving very badly towards me,» explained the former Bluvertigo.
The opportunity to talk again about Morgan and Sanremo arose after the monologue Bugo made on Le Iene talking about his career and how it changed him. «Bugo has not gotten over what happened. I don't hate him and never have, so much so that I formally apologized to him but it was not enough. Not being able to see what happened at Sanremo as a spectacle highlighted his limitation,» Morgan explained during the interview.
