0:48Now PlayingItalian TV presenter Paola Ferrari went viral after many thought she’d accidentally flashed the whole of Italy.
The face of Italian Euro 2020 coverage has been compared to Sharon Stone in “Basic Instinct” after an X-rated leg-crossing incident — but she denies that she wasn’t wearing underwear, unlike Stone in the blockbuster movie.
Rai presenter Ferrari was dressed in a long black gown with her legs crossed on the show.
At one point, she switched legs, and some viewers suggested the 60-year-old had gone commando.
But the experienced journalist has quashed the rumors, explaining she “prefers health and hygiene.”
“It has gone viral, they are using more VAR (for this incident) than on the field at the European Championships,” Ferrari said. “It happened but it’s nothing serious.”
