POP STARS CREATING INTERNATIONAL INCIDENTS
Meet Tiziano Ferro, an Italian popstar who has managed to get himself into a bit of bother.
He suggested that Mexican women (except Salma Hayek) have moustaches:
In an interview given to Italian media he stated that in Mexico it is completely impossible to find beautiful women because "they have moustaches".
It seems the only one not guilty is Salma Hayek: "It's impossible to say that the most beautiful women in the world are in Mexico. No offense but...they have moustaches...I'm sorry, but they know it. Maybe not Salma...”, he said on the Che Tempo fai show on Italian network RAI.
After his mention of Mexican women's moustaches on Italian TV, the program's host warned Ferro that his insulting comment could offend all Mexican women, to which the singer replied "They know it".
Now, this would be a slightly smaller storm in a teeny-tiny cup were it not for the popularity of Italian pop in Latin America: indeed, about the only place outside of Italy where Italian-language artists sell in registering numbers is the Latin America market. So insulting Mexican women, and by implication, their lovers and sons and brothers, isn't exactly the smartest move.
Tiziano's response? A strangulated moment of panic, and then a desperate "ha! it was all a joke!":
'I was part of a broadcast in which, in a comedic tone together with the host, I did a sketch based on sarcastic jokes', said the singer.
'I didn't make a statement, it was just a joke in which sarcastic comments were made about different country's customs, including Italy and myself. I am really sorry if anyone was offended by this', he added.
Sorry, Tizzy. The only way out of this is to start dating a Mexican woman, preferably one with a giant, bushy moustache that catches the pasta from soup.

The person who said this ...is such a small person...and insulting like Tiziano Perro both should not even think about coming to Mexico...losers!
to the person that claimed that tiziano ferro was the man for dissing mexican women, it is quite sad that you bring in your own prejudices to something like this. Tiziano also made comments about colombia and el salvador. when he poked fun at mexican women, i think he showed what a superficial person he is. the mustache remark should make all women mad, for it claims that if you have a mustache, you are ugly. dont bite the hand that feeds you!
what this tiziano dude did, is equivalent to getting a loaded gun and shooting yourself between the eyes. he will be kicking himself for the one remark for the rest of his life. his explanation/apology is equaully immature and bizarre. man, how stupid can u be?!
He knows Best to apologize! To bad it's not going to work. He just recognized that he has lost his audience. I will not EVER purchase a cd or music by him. How dare he!
BIG! MISTAKE!
BIG MISTAKE
As always, good looks equals no brain $$$ He is done in the Mexican market, for life $$$$
Hahaha... Tiziano tha's so true!!
Perdon chavitas per si es verdad... uds "no son muy guapas"
ciao ragazzo :) and.. maybe next time... you should be more carefull... they are ugly but they buy CD'S
tizzi, don't go to Mexico anymore. Your not welcome....
Para el que escribio "chavitas" primero aprende a escribir en español antes de empezar a escribir en el idioma de Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra .. oopsss seguro que pensaras que es un idiota cantante Italiano.. poor ignorants those what follow Tizzano Perro and his thoughts..
i will not NEVER EVER buy a cd by this PERRO
i just want to start by saying CANT ANYONE TAKE A JOKE??? even if it wasnt a joke,mexican women should know that they are not ugly ...they really shouldnt get so upset about what one person says! anyways hes a really sweet guy and his music is great!!! try to forget this, everyone makes mistakes. i love you tiziano and i will always support you.
