Alessandra Mussolini (born 30 December 1962) is an Italian politician, television personality, model and former actress and singer. Mussolini has been a member of both houses of the Italian Parliament as well as the European Parliament. She is also known for being a member of the Mussolini family as a granddaughter of Benito Mussolini.[1][2][3][4] Since 2022, she has been a Member of the European Parliament for Forza Italia.
Mussolini first gained fame through acting and modelling. In 1982, as a singer, she released a city pop album entitled Amore. Mussolini starred in her final film in 1990 and left the industry after a producer asked her to change her name.
In 2004, she became the first woman to lead a political party in Italy when she founded the national conservative political party Social Action.[5] She was a member of the Chamber of Deputies from 2008 to 2013 and the Italian Senate from 2013 to 2014 where she was elected under The People of Freedom which later became part of Forza Italia. She was elected to the European Parliament in 2014.[6]
Mussolini left politics temporarily in December 2020 for a reality television career.[7] She returned as an MEP in November 2022, succeeding Antonio Tajani, after he was appointed in the Meloni government.[8]
