He became famous in the mid-90s by appearing in the famous Italian
cabaret show "Mai dire Gol" ("Never Say Goal"), playing the already
legendary characters of the Earl Uguccione (a Tuscanian aristocratic
man with a passion for other men's wives) and Alfio Muschio (a
Lombardian worker who hates Southern Italian and African people, and is
made into a black man by a sourcerer, so he is always angry and
aggressive).
