Big Brother VIP, Carmen Di Pietro and the breast prosthesis "exploded" on the plane: "I heard a boom"

A few hours after his entry into the House of Big Brother VIP, Carmen Di Pietro has already given the roommates one of the most particular stories of this beginning of the adventure. The showgirl recalled an episode that occurred almost thirty years ago, when during a flight to Spain she had a sudden problem with one of her breast prosthetics.

Carmen Di Pietro: “Suddenly I felt… boom!”

At that time Carmen often worked in Spain, where she participated in television programs and performances. That day she was headed to Madrid for a commitment with Telecinco.

The trip seemed to proceed normally. Carmen was sitting in her seat reading Mickey Mouse when she suddenly felt something.

"I was on the plane, I had to go for an evening on Telecinco, I was singing for Spanish broadcasters, even on Antena 3. At that time I was singing and performing with all the dancers. At a certain moment I was calmly on the plane, reading Mickey Mouse. Then suddenly I felt... boom!".

The showgirl immediately understood that something was wrong and rushed to the plane's bathroom.

The discovery in the bathroom and the scream that calls the hostess back

Carmen noticed that her right breast was lower than the other.

"I go to the bathroom and say: 'My breast burst'. What does burst mean? That went boom, it really burst inside. Nothing could be seen from the outside, that breast was just falling apart compared to the other, nothing came out."

In front of the mirror, Carmen got scared and started screaming.

"I see this right breast down, down, down. And I screamed. A Tarzan scream. I got scared."

The screams attracted the attention of a stewardess, who reached Carmen to understand what was happening. After showing her the problem, the flight attendant also became concerned and informed the captain.

The phone call to Cristiano Malgioglio once he arrived in Madrid

The plane arrived regularly at Madrid, but for Carmen the idea of appearing on television after what had just happened was now out of the question.

Once she landed, she called CRISTIANO MALGIOGLIO, asking him to warn Telecinco.

"Tell Telecinco right away, because I can't go to work, because my breasts burst on the plane, you know?".

Malgioglio's response, at least according to Carmen's account, was decidedly different from what she would have expected:

"Wretch, go to television anyway!".

Carmen, however, decided not to follow the advice and returned to Italy.

Carmen Di Pietro: “It was bad”

Behind the almost surreal aspects of the story, however, there is an episode that, for Carmen, was far from funny. Once back in Rome, she turned to the surgeon and had to undergo a new operation.

“Questa cosa non fa ridere, certo, voi ridete, ma è stato brutto. Questa cosa ha fatto boom dentro di me, io l’ho sentito, gli altri non l’hanno sentito, ma io sì”.

Carmen ha spiegato ai conquilini, che il problema fu, secondo il suo racconto, un “calo” della protesi.

“Io sono andata dal chirurgo e mi hanno dovuta operare nuovamente. Ho subito un intervento d’urgenza e poi sono tornata come prima”.

And about the plane journey he responds with his usual irony

Raccontando l’episodio agli altri concorrenti, Carmen ha anche parlato delle differenze che, secondo lei, esisterebbero tra le protesi utilizzate all’epoca e quelle attuali.

Quando qualcuno le ha chiesto se fosse possibile viaggiare tranquillamente in aereo con una protesi, la showgirl ha chiuso il racconto con una battuta perfettamente nel suo stile:

“Amore, non è che quando mi hanno messo la protesi sono andata a leggere il bugiardino”.

Tra paura, incredulità e una buona dose di ironia, Carmen Di Pietro ha così riportato alla luce uno degli episodi più curiosi della sua vita, proprio mentre nella Casa del Grande Fratello Vip cominciano le prime confidenze tra i concorrenti.
