Alba Parietti shared a video on Instagram wearing a bikini without filters at age 65, directly addressing public scrutiny regarding her age and appearance, according to Libero Magazine. The television personality and showgirl defended her right to vanity and stated she has no intention of changing to satisfy critics, declaring on social media that she remains an unrepentant free spirit.
Age Scrutiny and Social Media Backlash
According to Libero Magazine, Parietti’s post featured the direct quote: “65 years old and the ‘old woman’ won’t resign… Resign yourselves too, you will never educate me. Abandon all hope, I will remain vain as long as I have breath. And not even a little filter for you to cling to… darn it. What can I do, I don’t relent, I am truly unrepentant, a free fox in a free henhouse or better yet ‘free chicken in a not-free coop’ (cit Karl Marx).” In the video, Parietti reflected on aging, noting that if someone had told her at age 20—when she considered 30 to be old—that she would handle 65 this way, she would have been satisfied.
This appearance online follows a separate viral video from the previous week, reported by Libero Magazine. During that prior broadcast, Parietti addressed users who focused on her physical appearance while she attempted to discuss the serious topic of the femicide of Lorena Isceri. At that time, she responded directly to critics by stating, according to Libero Magazine: “I’m without makeup and I look like crap, but I don’t care at all.”
