This lifestyle is probably being celebrated too much in popular culture. But when you think about it, they are basically also just criminals. Maybe better organized with a cooler image, but still criminals. Her Northern British accent is a bit confusing, you wouldn't expect that haha, but I understand because she is half-British and lived there most of her life.
You're spot on. The mafia ran my family out of Calabria because we just wanted to work on the farm instead of be apart of the crime - we're from a small valley town with less than a few thousand people, yet the mafia's infectious reach still got to us. Worst part was that it was from our own direct family members, too; my nonna's brothers and first cousins. Peace was kept between my nonno and nonna's family because of the patriarchs of both families having a good relationship. It wasn't until my great nonno on my nonna's side passed away that things broke down, and things got more nefarious and open with the mafia dealings. Mafia are scum, and just because they're glorified and are a little bit more 'prestigious' and 'classy' than gangs like Crips/Bloods, MS-13 (because of all the movies) it doesn't change the fact that they're criminals. I have mafia in my family, but at the same time, my cousin can't open up a chain restaurant because it would "cause trouble for the locals" and they'd need to pay a cut in order to keep the 'neighborhood' happy.
@@connorspiech309 not really. Had a friend called fabio when I was a teenager. He was born in Milan but moved to London when he was 3 years old. Spoke just like me and all our friends. He was quite a bit richer than most of us and his dad had a lovely ferrari. My family lived in a council flat and had an old rusty vauxhall. 😂
This is a weird one, I'm not sure how much one can trust her. It seems more like she is boasting about that life then anything. Most of the things she said where stuff that you can read on wikipedia anyways.
Imagine your daughter goes to Italy as an Au-Pair only to fall in love and have a child with a mafia boss. I mean, this is pretty much the worst case, isn't it?
@@atide_and1175 I didn’t embarrass myself, it’s a valid comment. Many European women dated Muslims and went to live in the Islamic state! Pure crap! Islam is pure evil!
I don't think she's trying that hard. The street drug trade (which ruins millions of lives every day), police being paid off to protect criminal businesses, none of that should seem normal to anyone. It says more about us, the worship so many have for this criminal element and the over-saturation of media about them which normalises it all, that we don't find any of this surprising.
Not exactly, seems like she just inherited the title from her father being locked up. Yeah she’s the “boss” but I’m willing to bet the capos/underboss run the crew.
@@keithlukeswanson9345 I agree. Of course different mafia-style organizations across Italy have women as bosses but this woman was something like 21. How many 21 year olds could run an entire mafia-type clan/family, male or female? I'm sure she passed messages on via prison visits and the like and was probably a convenient tool for the family given that the authorities would be less suspicious about a 21 year old woman visiting a mafia boss in prison but I highly doubt that she controlled logistical operations and delegated tasks to underlings. It is more likely that she was relaying messages to one of her father's underlings and was perhaps supervising to learn how things worked but a boss? I doubt it. At that age, man or woman, they are more likely to be told to pass on tiny bits of paper to some "general" or whatever who would delegate down the line to get things done and as she grew up and observed, she will have learned much about how the organization worked, hence being able to write and talk about it. Or I could be wrong and she had been groomed since a child to learn the complex inner-workings of a family in one of the most powerful organised crime syndicates in the world.
Women and children might not be targeted by other clans but its different if they want to escape this life. Like the case of Lea Garofalo, who was murdered by her own family after she tried to leave with her daughter. There's a TV series about this called The Good Mothers (based on the novel) which also depicts how poorly those wives and daughters are treated within these families. And for those who dont have the attention span to check out or listen to her story; born in Italy, English mother and Italian father. Came back to UK (Blackpool) aged 9. Hence the northern English accent. Went back to Italy as a young adult and became part of the 'family business'. Came back to UK later on and convicted of money laundering, spent time in Durham prison while Myra HIndley and Rose West were there.
She had a princess status so for sure she’s very very fare away from that reality that keep hostage children, women and men who doesn’t want to be a part of that reality of the maffia families. It’s a real thing the family pression indeed. Thank you for reminding it to all. ❤
@@robertlee9712who did she grass on? Look up the court records and show me 1 person that went to prison because of her. You can't because it didn't happen.
I took a gap year to work in Sicily teaching English, and even at my little level, wow, what I saw. I'd see burnt cars while walking to work, or burger vans who hadn't paid 'pizzo'. My school owner am sure was one of them as I was quite outspoken to her about not doing things for her like driving to dangerous villages on the roads etc and she swiftly got rid of me for no real reason when covid hit. I used to feel ok in some cafes but others had this dark and ominous presence. I had a student too who I just couldn't get rid of for 2 years with a big business and it was very scary, so I am glad I came back. Even at my little level you sense it.
I come from the gargano area which is that little peninsula that sticks out in the Puglia region. There are several families (blood related families) that have been fighting a vendetta fueled war since 1979 that began over grazing rights. Now they're fighting over territory. You can't do anything or open a business or anything without going thru these families first. They are known for shotgun blasts to the face so that their family members can't see them in the casket.
Right?? Everyone is saying things like "she's seems like she's boasting" or "she's trying to make it look not bad" when I feel like the previous interviews were more or less the same 😭
Dayum I hadn’t even considered it, surely it’s not that simple right? Surely something in those 9 months happened that offers a logical explanation…..right?
Mussolini had all these pricks gaoled.. but then America came in and released "the political prisoners", because they needed strike breakers after the war ended
Yes she was involved in it, she's well known and was arrested famously in the late 90s and extradited to Italy, her story is real. She's not saying women run the Mafia at any point, she says the opposite, she just points out that from the sidelines they influence what the men are doing because of course they do, as they do in all other aspects of life outside the mafia, even when it's all men making decisions there's always women behind them influencing them and it's obviously no different in the mafia. Some women will have more influence others will choose to not get involved but there is always a degree of influence. She ran the family in place of her father who was in prison, she was effectively a spokesperson for him, ran the logistics of the operation and reported back to him in prison. She did however run it, and people did follow her instructions because again she was speaking on behalf of the boss
The Italian American Mafia hasn't been relevant in the streets since the 80s and 90s. The Italian Canadian Mafia on the other hand is still pretty active. Not enough people talk about that.
@@realtalk6195yeah because Canadian law enforcement and the Canadian justice system can’t and won’t do any about it. The US government instituted Rico and created agencies to deal with the American mafia because of their power and influence.
It seems like she realized she can't go back and therefore could make money talking about her old life. However, given the opportunity back then without a daughter, she would have continued
@@SS-hg6yu RIGHT. This isn't new, y'all just have more to say because she's a woman. But like she said in the beginning, it's the American Mafia that didn't let women join.
Guys in the comments have watched too many gangster movies lol It’s quite funny, surely you realise criminals don’t look or act like the Corleone’s but sculk people from hard backgrounds
So... she's out there, speaking internal stuff, doing interviews on YT, writing books... something there isn't right. Either she's not what she claims or mafia is far less deadly the way they are portrayed in the media and films.
Look at Michael Francesze, if it’s in the court documents it’s public and the polizia already know. You don’t kill someone who has settled in Britain either, the backlash would be monumental
@@vanguardanon4979 I think with cases like Francesze and her it's probably more trouble than reward to kill them, so they don't do it, but if a golden opportunity would come along, I think they would strike.
Or, like she said, she only talks about what she is permitted to talk about. At 5:17 on, she's all, you know, there's just stuff we don't address/mention... She hints or implies a couple of things, but mostly seems keen to discuss the BROADER aspects of the Mafia and how it works, not specifically who, what, or how, and the conspiracies/money changing specific pockets, or specific controversial crimes; that OR her personal acts in the Mafia, that specifically involved her. I'm sure she's naturally careful with her wording and language, you have to be, in a society and organization like that. You watch your tongue, or, even potentially, you could lose it.
I would like talk with this women as I had a friend who was a trafficking victim who managed to get out and was told about the ometra the code of silence. She had never heard heard of it before. The people who tried to recruit her said they were soilders. She was very much manipulated and brainwashed at one point into sex trafficking but managed to fight her corner and ended up receiving death threats because she was a police informant and was called a rat and a stool piegion.
There are like 4 main crime syndicates in Italy. When just Mafia is used, that mostly means the Sicilian Mafia which is also called the Cosa Nostra. The specific one that she is talking about mainly operates in the Calabrian region of Italy.
Its curious how some people go to crime "for the family" example breaking bad. This story she got out of crime for her family- her daughter even though its her family that led her to crime. take this to rumble.
She is clearly a high-level criminal and as the CHIEF of a criminal organisation involved in killings, drug dealing, corruption etc., she wasn't simply "led to crime". I really don't want to know the horrible things she did behind her beautiful face, good manners and nice accent.
It’s good to hear, in many interviews of this calibre , that the families are in decline. I realize they’re not gone, but consider the horrible things they do ?
Exactly! But I fear that though the European ones may be declining if not dying, the ‘emerging markets’ nations may be taking it over? It’s just sad the things people do when they could do better 🤷♀️
My grandpa Mastio di Pappino was a Mafia Don in NJ in the 70’s. He was fat and bald but no one messed with him. He was the fattest man you ever seen but he was tough. Lived by the code of honor and went to prison for life. Rest his soul Lord JESUS

There are levels of "criminality" that aren't as risky as others. The appeal depends upon what level is "comfortable" for the individual. Also.. there are crimes committed against the individual and those committed against the state. If the state was structured to truly protect & serve, yet allow freedom to those who can manage that freedom well, THEN there would be much less need for normal crimes (everything not including murders). But, in our world, when the state commits a criminal act it goes unpunished 95% or more of the time, while the average "nobody" is in danger of getting an excessive penalty for a crime, yet while other dangerous criminals go through the revolving door of what many self-righteous people consider "justice".
I thought that a lot too. Also thought about becoming a gold digger. 10 years, $2500 for World’s most developed technology that I invented. Thats the money the whole f*** world thinks I deserve for Building it.
“Omertra” was observed not even once during the recording of this interview. For someone in as deep as she was she is talking and talking and talking! You’d think she would be slightly more discreet when discussing certain things like a lot of ‘ex-cons’ out there on RUclips
😂😂😂 go figure an eyetalian who doesn't butcher the english language unlike the english who basterdise the eyetalian language because it has too many vowels
She's basically just talking about their viewpoint and how respect should be...I mean honestly they are just businessmen who had no choice but to stick together bcuz of their ethnicity, they didn't ask for this, they shouldn't want to success as a group? Like others? I don't agree with all of their tactics, but I understand why it happened. Their govt kind of made it happen in the 1st place
They earn billions from human trafficking, literally one of the worst crimes there is. If you don't think they have a choice, you're absolutely delusional
What people don't understand is that all Italian families have family businesses and some are legal and some are not , they are multiple crews of illegal business that regionally pay respects to a leadership , it's a economic problem that spreads out very fast when they find fast money , I grew up watching the family do bad things but I got educated enough to not need that life ,thou shall not kill
When my Grandma lived in Acerra, italy her grandpa had lost his leg because her uncle had a gambling debt he couldn’t pay and the guy shot her grandpa and he lost his leg
"I'm not a snitch because I'm only talking about what I did myself. Anyway, so here's how we smuggled drugs.". Was this woman really a boss? The remark about not killing women or children is highly insulting.
This hypocritical comments section pretty much sums up how misogynistic society is. In the last mafia video, people were positive towards the guy who was saying similar things. But people respect when guy criminals talk about their exploits, and all of a sudden get moral when it's women. For the record, I don't think she's a good person either, she was terrible like all mafia people. But people's hypocrisy in the comments is shameless.
Yeah you obviously did miss something. you must not really pay attention when watching. Her mother was English and she herself has lived in England far longer than she ever lived in Italy.
@@saxpayne4302 just from this comment, i can tell your only knowledge of crime is the sopranos or the godfather lmao. Plenty of evidence on her and her from police investigations, she also served time
it's pretty easy and enjoyable to get pulled into that I wouldn't watch half the videos otherwise. Peaky blinders is a great program based on the same pull. I guess it's just don't get pulled all the way in.
I will admit: this is one of those things that I could never get into. But it is interesting to see other folks get wrapped up in it, because we all know that they wouldn’t appreciate it if it was happening in their communities.
Just some information that italian would not put mafia and italian in the same sentence so already this is Sicilian indigenous programmers trying for a connection So this is why we have european law Help and support sent all avenues Action immediately all areas AFFA angels never die nffn HMS council
Honestly she threw me off at the beginning I thought she was Australian or maybe South African, then as she went on you can clearly hear her Northern English accent with a tinge but I can’t put my finger on what that is 🤔
I watch these but don't believe half of what they say in them. How they live with themselves is one thing, but sums it up that these people destroy lives and still hide behind lies
Whenever she says American clans don't involve women and how men are made and what a capo is and how the waste disposal business works, it always feels to me like she just watched The Sopranos.
Your father put you in charge because he can control you from jail and get control back when he’s released. He would have to fight your uncle for power back
Trust me, I'm not jealous of her going to jail for 3-4 years and having a religious gangster cult as a family that has it's members commit heinous crimes on the daily... to me this is like watching one of those ted talks with the amish cult child... she has no clue what she's been through and she's probably delusional about what was actually happening around her while she "reigned" for a year.
When she says " 'Ndrangheta don't touch children women" In 2007 it is estimated that they made around € 2.867 billion from Prostitution and human trafficking. So yeah bullshit.

Italian mafia, otherwise known as the mafia
As opposed to the American mafia
There are like 4 main crime syndicates in Italy. When just Mafia is used, that mostly means the Sicilian Mafia which is also called the Cosa Nostra. The specific one that she is talking about mainly operates in the Calabrian region of Italy.
This is true, but after the Nineties, in Italy ‘Ndrangheta has taken the leader role by far among the 4 (3?) main crime syndicates.
@@ilsommodante5636 True that. Since Sicily and Calabria are close in location and language, it made it easier to take on the head role
@@irinagevorgyan9121 I’m Italian and that WAS NOT the reason why it happened.
Its curious how some people go to crime "for the family" example breaking bad. This story she got out of crime for her family- her daughter even though its her family that led her to crime. take this to rumble.
She is clearly a high-level criminal and as the CHIEF of a criminal organisation involved in killings, drug dealing, corruption etc., she wasn't simply "led to crime".
I really don't want to know the horrible things she did behind her beautiful face, good manners and nice accent.
Amazing story
Any chance of doing a video on our corrupted government?
It’s good to hear, in many interviews of this calibre , that the families are in decline.
I realize they’re not gone, but consider the horrible things they do ?
Exactly! But I fear that though the European ones may be declining if not dying, the ‘emerging markets’ nations may be taking it over? It’s just sad the things people do when they could do better 🤷♀️
My grandpa Mastio di Pappino was a Mafia Don in NJ in the 70’s. He was fat and bald but no one messed with him. He was the fattest man you ever seen but he was tough. Lived by the code of honor and went to prison for life. Rest his soul Lord JESUS
Please say that nobody in your family picked it up 🙏 that post WWII generation was really messed up in different ways and no wonder!
Why not show how government crime works? Also show how rich people get away with murder.
Don't hate the game just cos you can't play it bro
May all sentient beings be liberated from suffering and from the causes of suffering.🕉☮️☮️☮️
Read her book, you can’t really see she s repentant or thinks this is bad, she s more like proud of her past
She is also lying quite a bit too
@@gaia7240 you think?
@@missthunderstormable i think so like about " 'Ndrangheta don't touch children women" In 2007 it was estimated that they made around € 2.867 billion from Prostitution and human trafficking. someone commented about this in the comment section so idk man
@@lakshmimahajan6388 i could be wrong but thats with women who come from africa too work on the tomato fields... they have african people do the work for them...
@@landonbrowne6250 their main activity was drug trafficking, but also deals with arms trafficking, money laundering, racketeering, extortion, loan sharking, and prostitution. idk dude i could be wrong too ig and anyway thx for the info. apprecite that.
I would love to be a criminal. Can't even get a mortgage playing by the rules
Lol
dm me i have a very lucrative business opportunity. It's called selling crack
do you think bezos doesnt pay taxes on amazon a huge corporation by playing by the rules?
There are levels of "criminality" that aren't as risky as others. The appeal depends upon what level is "comfortable" for the individual. Also.. there are crimes committed against the individual and those committed against the state. If the state was structured to truly protect & serve, yet allow freedom to those who can manage that freedom well, THEN there would be much less need for normal crimes (everything not including murders). But, in our world, when the state commits a criminal act it goes unpunished 95% or more of the time, while the average "nobody" is in danger of getting an excessive penalty for a crime, yet while other dangerous criminals go through the revolving door of what many self-righteous people consider "justice".
I thought that a lot too. Also thought about becoming a gold digger. 10 years, $2500 for World’s most developed technology that I invented. Thats the money the whole f*** world thinks I deserve for Building it.
She is genuine.
Genuinely wicked
Godfather film series got this moments.
Thankyou.
With it being families it’s a lot harder to snitch on your own family in Ndrangheta
“Omertra” was observed not even once during the recording of this interview. For someone in as deep as she was she is talking and talking and talking! You’d think she would be slightly more discreet when discussing certain things like a lot of ‘ex-cons’ out there on RUclips
omertà.. at least write it right
@@LaFlame911 thank you for the correction typo
@@Samuel-tc7nf You're welcome
At first I thought this was Mel Robbins
Haha same here🤣🤣
Man, that kind of loyalty to family
'Ey up, I wurra queen in t' mafia'.
Exactly what I thought 🤣 sounds like she's lived in England all her life
If we talk about family and all that. I'm from La Familia, l want to know why we aren't included with the other mafias if it's about family?
Why does she call the Camorra 'Gommorah'?
Accent
because she's a fraud, italian mafia but is british lol. They wouldn't accept a brit into the family
Cu fu tu ciu ciu.
Every province has its distinctive accent.
I wonder how much mafia in Italy respect the ones in USA la cosa nostra vs cosa nostra
There is no "La cosa nostra and Cosa nostra. It's just Cosa Nostra
Such a thick Italian accent 😂
@otc2020 there is no doubt she was an Italian mob boss
As an italian I earn just british accent
Cmon did yall just not read the description. Her mom was english
@@Fierie333 which is a big reason shes spouting bs about things she should have no knowledge of
😂😂😂 go figure an eyetalian who doesn't butcher the english language unlike the english who basterdise the eyetalian language because it has too many vowels
Greetings from Leipzig!
I wonder what she’d think of the Theerapanyakul family
Damn I thought you were talking about some badass family I’ve never heard of
respect
13:05
Can someone please explain what's up with her hair?
This feels heavily edited, almost schizophrenic. She could’ve said this or anything else in the original recording.
This needs a movie
Who else thought this was Mel Robbins from the thumbnail?
Very interesting
Cartels in south America are monsters compared to the Italians Aztec blood 🩸 is real
In them
First and foremost it's a business
So she became a Mafia boss to show her father the power of girl bossing.
Yes! And to then use that power to support all women in the whole wide world;)
And this is why modern world is a mistake. Humanity was not meant to come this far.
COOL!
I will never understand why this sick people uses crosses on their necks.
the misogyny in this comment section, whew
literally 💀
Just because someone doesn't have the same opinion as you doesn't make them a misogynist ffs 🙄
@@ratedRblazin420”I disagree with you” reply: You hate women!!!
@@ratedRblazin420It is literal misogyny though. Compare the comments in the mafia insider videos with men. This is the only one that's negative.
She's basically just talking about their viewpoint and how respect should be...I mean honestly they are just businessmen who had no choice but to stick together bcuz of their ethnicity, they didn't ask for this, they shouldn't want to success as a group? Like others? I don't agree with all of their tactics, but I understand why it happened. Their govt kind of made it happen in the 1st place
no choice? People always have a choice.
They earn billions from human trafficking, literally one of the worst crimes there is. If you don't think they have a choice, you're absolutely delusional
Oh pls 💀
It was like this in the late 1800s and early 1900s, but this hasn't been the case for almost a century.
@@-AxisA- yes. Which I why I said WHAT Happened..( past tense 🙃
I wonder if she had the makings of a varsity athlete?
A woman boss? Wouldn't happen in the States.
@@nicvoid What are you gonna do?
@@nicvoid there have been many actual woman bosses in italy... many bosses got shot and woman as boss wont get killed by anyone else
@landonbrowne625 she said at the beginning that the American Mafia won't allow for women, that's what they're referring to
What people don't understand is that all Italian families have family businesses and some are legal and some are not , they are multiple crews of illegal business that regionally pay respects to a leadership , it's a economic problem that spreads out very fast when they find fast money , I grew up watching the family do bad things but I got educated enough to not need that life ,thou shall not kill
When my Grandma lived in Acerra, italy her grandpa had lost his leg because her uncle had a gambling debt he couldn’t pay and the guy shot her grandpa and he lost his leg
This is the most British sounding Italian I’ve ever seen.
"I'm not a snitch because I'm only talking about what I did myself. Anyway, so here's how we smuggled drugs.".
Was this woman really a boss? The remark about not killing women or children is highly insulting.
How come she sounds like a Lancashire lass?
english mom, lived in uk as a child, italian dad, came back to italy :)
Ruled by Visconti?
This hypocritical comments section pretty much sums up how misogynistic society is. In the last mafia video, people were positive towards the guy who was saying similar things. But people respect when guy criminals talk about their exploits, and all of a sudden get moral when it's women.
For the record, I don't think she's a good person either, she was terrible like all mafia people. But people's hypocrisy in the comments is shameless.
Its not hostile sexism, it's just benevolent sexism at work.
lol there’s more comments virtue signalling about sexism than sexist comments lol
I really miss Cornation Street.
How much you think a princess really knows anyways
Strange that she has a northern British accent but is heavily involved in the Italian mafia, very unexpected.
I must be missing something here. Why does she have a UK accent if she's born and raised in Italy?
Yeah you obviously did miss something. you must not really pay attention when watching. Her mother was English and she herself has lived in England far longer than she ever lived in Italy.
A licensed criminologist!
Is she really who she claims to be?
Many turncoats wouldn't reveal there faces/identities
True, also she lied about some things
Probably an act. She'd ruin her portfolio talking like this. 100% fake
She didn't rat, when she was arrested
@@saxpayne4302 just from this comment, i can tell your only knowledge of crime is the sopranos or the godfather lmao. Plenty of evidence on her and her from police investigations, she also served time
No, shes talking total nonsense
I’m confused, are we supposed to be applauding her for being a female criminal? It’s not about money or power, it’s about girl power!
it's pretty easy and enjoyable to get pulled into that I wouldn't watch half the videos otherwise. Peaky blinders is a great program based on the same pull. I guess it's just don't get pulled all the way in.
I will admit: this is one of those things that I could never get into. But it is interesting to see other folks get wrapped up in it, because we all know that they wouldn’t appreciate it if it was happening in their communities.
Great video!! I guess mobster in US diff.
Did she see all this from England?
she had an english mother
@@Fierie333 I have an Italian dad but accent english because I grew up in England
Alright time to play Mafia 4
Sensationalizing these criminals. What times we live in!
It’s not sensationalism it’s just informational.
Don't kid yourself the government system and its leaders are corrupt criminals too. Do your history research.
She has dangerous eyes
Strangely, I was looking for the name Gonstabe..
Amo a esta mujer...
Incredible
Just some information that italian would not put mafia and italian in the same sentence so already this is Sicilian indigenous programmers trying for a connection
So this is why we have european law
Help and support sent all avenues

Ohh so you could have titled this basic BASIC Mafia 101 I guess like my Australian friends could tell me this
What is her accent?
Manc😊
Honestly she threw me off at the beginning I thought she was Australian or maybe South African, then as she went on you can clearly hear her Northern English accent with a tinge but I can’t put my finger on what that is 🤔
It's manc, northern England. Manc Hester
I watch these but don't believe half of what they say in them. How they live with themselves is one thing, but sums it up that these people destroy lives and still hide behind lies
First rule about the mafia, you dont talk about the mafia. What mafia? What does mafia mean? Im just a book seller, sir....
Whenever she says American clans don't involve women and how men are made and what a capo is and how the waste disposal business works, it always feels to me like she just watched The Sopranos.
Your father put you in charge because he can control you from jail and get control back when he’s released. He would have to fight your uncle for power back
It's disgusting. Iam Italian and this makes me sick.
The FBI dismantled the American Mafia years ago. Proof positive that Uncle Sam is the biggest gang in all the land 😂
uhh… sure
👍.. Helped by the Italians though ! •̀ | -
I am sorry for watching. No disrespect
It's kinda sad how they started with something, and then slide into being purely just drug industry cartels.
I dont think she had a clue of what was going on 😅
Exactly what I thought, seemed more like a money mule.
@Ich Zitiere You call others 12 year olds while thinking that beeing a mafia boss is something to be jealous about? Grow up man.
Trust me, I'm not jealous of her going to jail for 3-4 years and having a religious gangster cult as a family that has it's members commit heinous crimes on the daily... to me this is like watching one of those ted talks with the amish cult child... she has no clue what she's been through and she's probably delusional about what was actually happening around her while she "reigned" for a year.
Yeah😂
Mr. Salieri
Fortunatly he didn't kill his daughter to keep his identity a secret nor donut her to pass his enemies's heads
Was that a jojo reference
