At the age of fifteen and a half, the first audition for 'The Last Kiss'. 'Muccino had just made 'Like no one ever', for us kids it was a myth. Mom couldn't, so dad accompanied me. He didn't trust it: 'If you don't come down within a certain hour, I'll go up, huh'. What anxiety, I was afraid he would make me look bad. Fortunately, he didn't go up. Until then some advertising and nothing more. But it didn't matter. Martina Stella was perfect for the movie.
The audition with Muccino
'We were left in two - she told Corriere della Sera - I had to act out the seduction scene with Stefano Accorsi. Before arriving I had been to the restaurant and I had spilled the tomato sauce on the white shirt, I was all messed up. I didn't have a change. The waiter tried to stain it with talcum powder and made things worse'.
Martina Stella in The Long Night, who is the actress? Age, separation from husband, children, private life, hot photos and the (talked about) relationship with Lapo Elkann
But it went well despite her strong Tuscan accent. Then a misunderstanding. Not a small one. She, Martina Stella did not agree to shoot the sequel 'Kiss me again'. Muccino got angry but for another reason: Martina refused a part that actually never existed, the director told. 'It was a misunderstanding, I'm sorry, I'm very attached to him. Gabriele is a great director and I am very grateful to him, if I made a mistake I still apologize. We met again, he was very nice to me, I think it's water under the bridge now'.
Raoul Bova
Raoul Bova has always been her idol and meeting him on set years later was special. 'I worked with him in I present you a friend. The first day we immediately had to shoot the kissing scene, I was super embarrassed, I confessed to him and Raoul helped me to loosen up. As a seductress I am clumsy, even in real life. I am more ironic, not a panther'. She doesn't like social media but she had to land there anyway. But she does it with a smile. She doesn't feel like an influencer. And her daughter Ginevra teases her, also for this: 'For her I am a hopeless boomer who is denied for technology and always uses the wrong emojis, she doesn't let me pass one. She is very nice and makes me nice too, I don't always seem like it right away, with her I became more sunny'.
The separation
A grown girl, become a woman, then a mother. Or vice versa. A Martina Stella who feels 'to have not had much luck in love'. 'It's so. In work, application and sacrifice count, but also luck. In love it didn't go like that, sentimental relationships are made of encounters, moments'. And last summer she separated from her husband Andrea Manfredonia 'for insurmountable reasons that caused me a lot of pain', she said, some time ago. Now at Corsera she tries to explain herself better: 'I will not add other details, I do not want my children to read things not very nice. This last story made me suffer a lot, however I also keep some good memories'. Now, however, 'I'm fine, my children are my everything, I want to give them the image of a strong and courageous woman'. Among her famous exes Valentino Rossi. ('It was a little story between teenagers, do you still ask me?'). The other Lapo Elkann: 'I remained attached to him, there is affection, but even there, I was very young'.
