0At 24 years old and with more than a million followers on social media, Ana Zortea divides her work as a model, consultant, content producer and 'number 1 fan' of the Knicks, at least for Miles McBride, also a point guard known as "Deuce" or simply "blessed", as he is called at home.
What little is known is that, long before being recognized on the streets of New York, Ana left good memories in her country, representing Flamengo, the Brazilian national team and even starring in prime time television soap operas.
In an interview with ESPN.com.br, she spoke about her past as an actress and swimming athlete for Rubro- Black, the relationship with the star of one of the main NBA franchises and the new reality in the United States.
"I have always been an athlete, since I was a child. I started swimming when I was three and a half years old and, at seven, I already trained every day in Criciúma (SC). I also worked as a model and actress. I had an Olympic dream, but I also loved acting. So, at the age of 11, I had the chance to do 'Avenida Brasil' and I really liked it. But, with the routine of recording, I no longer had time to train", he recalls.
By leaving the world of dramaturgy aside, after the famous production in which he played a girl abandoned in a landfill, the girl The prodigy put sport back as the protagonist of his career. Still, the script had other surprises in store for him in real life.
"In less than a year, he was already on the Brazilian swimming team. I was competing for Flamengo, when I received an opportunity to go to the USA with a 100% full scholarship to swim at Florida State University. I came here when I was 16, I didn't even speak good English, but I started college and graduated", she says.
Miles McBride entered the Brazilian woman's life about three years ago, when she started an MBA course at West Virginia University, former college of the then 2021 Draft prospect. The relationship would turn into dating in the North American summer of 2022, winter in Brazil, changing, once again, Zortea's plans.
< With the move to New York, the Brazilian found another passion: the New York Knicks, whose feeling even shortened her longing for her favorite club. "It's the best fans in the NBA. Everyone talks, no matter where they play, you can hear the Knicks screaming. It was like that with Phily (Philadelphia 76ers) and, when it's at home, no one has a chance to hear anything else. They crowd inside and outside the arena. I think that, after them, it's just Flamengo", he said.

At 39 years old, Bruno was seen performing his new role in Rio das Ostras, a city on the coast of Rio de Janeiro. The information was released by CNN Brasil.

0Created by Flamengo and considered one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, Lucas Paquetá does not hide his love for Mais Querido. Now, the player tries to pass on this red-black passion to the next generation. Thus, the athlete appeared in a video on social media teaching his son to sing the Mengo anthem.
In images published on social media by Lucas Paquetá's wife, which were reposted by the athlete, he appears at a moment relaxing with his family and helping his son sing the Flamengo anthem, even joking: “you have to sing it all”.
It is worth remembering that Lucas Paquetá was one of the names desired by the Red and Black board in the last transfer window. The midfielder is linked to West Ham (ING), but is experiencing a turbulent situation in England. This is because the midfielder is being investigated by the English Federation (FA) for "misconduct in relation to betting" in four Premier League matches.
Thus, Mais Querido even tried to convince the English team that a change of scenery would be positive for the player. However, West Ham did not accept the values proposed by Flamengo and the negotiation did not progress.
DECISION AT LIBERTADORESMost Querido is focused on the confrontation against Peñarol, in the Libertadores quarter-finals. Therefore, Flamengo faces the Uruguayans this Thursday (19), at 7pm, at Maracanã.
