70 - One Year Celebrating
On February 2020 Loredana resumes her role as judge of the evening for AMICI19, unfortunately participating only for the first 2 episodes out of the 9 planned due to the global pandemic of Covid-19 which saw the region of Lombardy, where Loredana is a resident, particularly affected by the pandemic.
