Marcelly Garcia, one of Mc Marcinho's daughters, paid tribute to her father last Saturday (11), the day the singer would have turned 46 years old. The funk singer died in August, a victim of multiple organ failure, after almost two months in a hospital in Rio de Janeiro.
In a moment of mourning and longing, the 24-year-old was faced with a flood of comments malicious and prejudiced and appeared crying, in an outburst on social media. She said that the comments are horrible about her and that it is difficult to live without her father.
"My life is already difficult without my father. I post a tribute photo for him and when I read the comments the people are saying horrible things about me. For what? Why are people like that?", asked Marcelly on her social networks.
Mc Marcinho's daughter expressed her pain and revealed that the comments became triggers for his biggest insecurities, with references to his appearance: "People were talking about my appearance, which is the thing I'm most insecure about in my life. They said I'm trans, that I look like a man. If I were, what's the problem? What prejudice That's it, how crazy is this?", Marcelly rebelled before completing.
"Nobody thinks that I just lost my father, that I'm suffering. It was a good thing and you managed to turn it into the worst thing in my life. All my insecurity being exposed. I'm crying, totally destabilized. If that was your intention, congratulations, applause to you, you did it. But tomorrow is another day and I'll be fine", she said in tears.
Marcelly's mother, Kelly Garcia also spoke out, expressing concern for her daughter's mental health and reprimanding the cruelty of the comments on -line. She also said that both she and her daughter have already been admitted to psychiatric clinics.
"My daughter is trying to live a dignified life and it is very difficult. She is Marcio's first daughter, she was daddy's little princess and her father no longer has her. Instead of welcoming, you are throwing stones at her" she vented before adding:
"If I paid tribute to him, the internet would be massacring me. Guys, what kind of world are we living in where we can't say anything else? My daughter still has serious psychiatric problems, she is borderline. I was hospitalized and when I left the clinic, he was already dead. Affection and respect remained between us. But it's so much mimimi and clowning that yesterday I decided not to post a tribute because of my mental health", lamented Kelly, who asked for empathy: "I want you to respect our family. You can find and think whatever you want. But don't drink poison for my daughter. She has psychiatric problems and needs to be welcomed, she doesn't need anyone's judgment."
After three months of pregnancy, Camisa 10 do Mengão and his wife, Camila Bastiani, announce the sex of the couple's first child
02 Set 2025 | 21:00 |
Living a special moment on and off the field, Arrascaeta received great news in his personal life : Flamengo's number 10 will be a father for the first time . This Monday (1st), the star revealed that his wife Camila Bastiani is pregnant with a boy.
On social media, the couple posted the news with the caption: "We're waiting for you, son," accompanied by a blue heart, symbolizing the baby's gender . The pregnancy had already been announced on June 30, indicating that the Flamengo midfielder's son is at least three months old.
The arrival of his first child comes during one of the most memorable years of Arrascaeta's career. By 2025, the Uruguayan has 17 goals and 13 assists in 42 games, figures that put him close to equaling his career-best scoring record for Flamengo , set in 2019 with 18 goals. In terms of assists, his goal is to surpass the 19 he recorded in both 2019 and 2022.
Last Sunday (31), against Grêmio, the number 10 shone again. After exchanging passes with Pedro, he gave a subtle touch, almost like a "snooker shot", leaving no chance for goalkeeper Tiago Volpi . Despite the beauty of the goal, the afternoon ended in a draw, as the opposing goalkeeper himself converted the penalty that decreed the 1-1 draw at Maracanã.
Now, Arrascaeta focuses on defending the Uruguayan National Team in the World Cup Qualifiers . The next commitment will be on Thursday (4), against Peru, at the Centenario Stadium, in Montevideo. Next, on September 9, Uruguay faces Chile, in Santiago.
In a comfortable position in the standings, La Celeste needs just one point out of a possible six to mathematically confirm its place in the World Cup. So far, Argentina, Ecuador, and Brazil have already secured their place , while Chile is the only team with no chance of qualifying.

Iconic singer of Rio music and supporter of Mais Querido, master of partido-alto and founder of Cacique de Ramos, passed away this Friday
08 Ago 2025 | 15:48 |
Samba lost one of its greatest references this Friday (8): Arlindo Cruz passed away at the age of 66 in Rio de Janeiro. Recognized for his vast work with 795 registered compositions, the samba singer marked generations with hits such as “Saudade Louca” and “Boto Meu Povo na Rua” . Born in Madureira, the birthplace of Rio samba, Arlindo was also a passionate Flamengo fan.
His retirement from the stage occurred after suffering a stroke in 2017, which impacted his career and health. Family members confirmed his death, without disclosing the official cause, but emphasized the artist's cultural legacy and his love for soccer, especially for the "Mais Querido" (Most Beloved). The wake will be open to the Rio de Janeiro community.
The son of Arlindão, who had meetings with samba artists like Candeia at home, Arlindo Cruz immersed himself in the musical world from an early age. At 17, he began his professional career as a cavaquinho player on Candeia's 1975 album "Roda de Samba." Over time, he became known for his mastery of the banjo, an instrument he helped popularize in samba and which became his trademark.
A central figure in the founding of the Cacique de Ramos samba circle, the musician rubbed shoulders with greats such as Zeca Pagodinho and Jorge Aragão. With Fundo de Quintal, a legendary samba group, he recorded 10 albums that helped cement the genre . From the 1990s onward, he developed a solo career with successful albums such as "Arlindinho" (1993) and important collaborations with producer Sombrinha.
Madureira, a neighborhood that forged its cultural and musical identity, was the setting for compositions that celebrated everyday life, street smarts, and the richness of Rio's samba. A strong connection to Flamengo was present in his daily life: Arlindo frequented the Maracanã stadium, participated in club events, and received tributes on special occasions , cementing his status as a Flamengo icon.
