The love of a people

We are Pope! We Germans could not assert this at this year's election. But pop star Semino Rossi (50) can ...

Like many others, the catholic singer was happy in March to decide that Jorge Mario Bergoglio (76) is the new Holy Father. And even more about Francis being Argentinean. Just like Semino Rossi !

In conversation with TV star Alexander-Klaus Stecher (45), the singer is excited about the news that the Pope is coming from his homeland, enthused: "That makes me really proud. My first impression was that he is a very simple person and can conquer the hearts of people. That's a good sign."

And Francis' closeness to the faithful pleases the star: "I think people appreciate it when a pope goes out to greet them."

Semino Rossi also reveals that he always carries a small Madonna figure on tour: "I got it from a fan."
