Born 1989 from an Italian father and an American mother, he exploded on the web as soon as he was 18, posting phone pranks on his YouTube channel. In 2009 he landed on Le Iene, which he was tied to at length initially as a field reporter, and later as a show host. In 2015 he debuted as a judge for Italia's Got Talent, turning out to be so right for and at ease in the role that he got called back for all six of the next seasons. In 2021 he starred in the first and enthralling season of LOL - chi ride è fuori (Last One Laughing) which airs exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. He already has seven movies on his resume, including Sono Tornato (I'm Back), by Luca Miniero, Tonno Spiaggiato, written by Matano himself together with Matteo Martinez, and the upcoming Una notte da dottore, with Diego Abatantuono.
