Biography[edit]

Stefano De Martino takes his first steps in the dance sector at the age of ten. In 2007 he manages to win a scholarship in New York City, at the Broadway Dance Center, thanks to which he has the opportunity to get in touch with modern and contemporary dance. After working in the Oltre Dance Company with the choreographer Macia Del Prete, in 2009 he participated as a competitor in the ninth edition of the talent show Amici di Maria De Filippi, on Canale 5, being eliminated in the semifinals and finishing first among the dancers. He wins a contract with Complexions Contemporary Ballet which allows him to take part in a tour that takes him to New Zealand, Australia and Hawaii.

Since 2010 he has been back to Amici di Maria De Filippi, this time as a professional dancer. Meanwhile, he works as a dance teacher and choreographer. In 2011, in Luciano Cannito's ballet Cassandra, she plays the role of Aeneas alongside Rossella Brescia. In 2015 De Martino became a supporter and host of Amici di Maria De Filippi's daytime. In the same year he is one of the protagonists of Pequeños gigantes, a program hosted by Belén Rodríguez aired at the beginning of 2016 on Canale 5, captaining the Gli incredibili team. Starting from 2016 he joined the cast of Selfie - Le cose cambiano, conducted by Simona Ventura on Canale 5, in which he is one of the mentors.[1]

In 2018 he was chosen as correspondent of the thirteenth edition of the reality show broadcast on Canale 5 L'isola dei famosi, hosted by Alessia Marcuzzi.[2]

Since 2019 he has hosted the comedy program Made in Sud on Rai 2, supported by Fatima Trotta, with the participation of Elisabetta Gregoraci and Biagio Izzo.[3] In the same year he always leads on Rai 2 with Belén Rodríguez the Notte della Taranta, the final of the Castrocaro Festival 2019 and, replacing Amadeus, he presents Tonight everything is possible, a program that he will also conduct in the following years always on Rai 2. In 2021 he returns to Amici di Maria De Filippi, with the role of judge, together with Stash and Emanuele Filiberto, to then be confirmed together with them also for the following edition.

Since December 2021 he has hosted his variety entitled Bar Stella in the late evening on Rai 2.[4]

In the summer of 2022 he hosted Tim Summer Hits in prime time on Rai 2 together with Andrea Delogu.[5]

Personal life[edit]

In 2009, within the Amici di Maria De Filippi school, he began a relationship with Emma Marrone, which ended in 2012. In the same year he became engaged to the Argentine showgirl Belén Rodríguez, marrying her on 20 September 2013[6] and with whom he has a son, Santiago, born on April 9 of the same year.
