Tiziano Ferro (born 21 February 1980 in Latina)
is an Italian pop
singer, songwriter, producer and author. He broke through in 2001 with his
international hit single "Xdono". Ferro has
released a Spanish version of each of his albums, and has also sung in English,
Portuguese, and French.
Aside from his success as an artist, Ferro is well known
for his personal struggles. Having been overweight
as a teenager, he has been outspoken about his battles with food addiction
and eating disorders, even during his career. In
May 2006, several comments he made during an interview on Italian television
resulted in major controversy abroad, effectively ending his blossoming career
in Latin America. In October 2010, at the height of his fame, Ferro came out as
gay, admitting that he had remained closeted
and near-celibate for a decade, out of fear that his homosexuality was not
compatible with a career as a pop singer.
Since his debut in 2001, Ferro has worked himself up to
becoming one of the best-selling artists in Italy today. Both his third album Nessuno è solo
and fourth album Alla mia età were certified diamond.
Despite his fears, his coming-out did not negatively affect his career, as fifth
album L'amore è una cosa semplice was the
best-selling album of 2012
in Italy, and the tour supporting this album also
