Damiano David Drugs
Maneskin lead singer Damiano David was accused of drug use at the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest. During the live broadcast, a camera shot of the Italian pop-metal band seemed to capture the Maneskin frontman lifting his face from the table surface, prompting a rush on social media to suggest he was using a drug, and that he should be disqualified.
When asked at the Eurovision winner’s press conference what he was doing, David said that he was bent over because his guitarist, Thomas Raggi, had broken a glass. He added, “I don’t use drugs. Please, guys. Don’t say that really, no cocaine.”
The band later also reacted to the allegation in an Instagram story, saying they were shocked and did not condone drug use: “We really are AGAINST drugs and we never used cocaine. We are ready to get tasted [sic], cause we have nothing to hide.”
The European Broadcasting Union (EBU), organizers of the Eurovision Song Contest, issued the following statement: “We are aware of the speculation surrounding the video clip of the Italian winners of the Eurovision Song Contest in the Green Room last night. The band have strongly refuted the allegations of drug use and the singer in question will take a voluntary drug test after arriving home. This was requested by them last night but could not be immediately organized by the EBU. The band, their management and head of delegation have informed us that no drugs were present in the Green Room and explained that a glass was broken at their table and it was being cleared by the singer. The EBU can confirm broken glass was found after an on site check. We are still looking at footage carefully and will update with further information in due course.”
