Shortly after confirming the end of his relationship with Lorena Maria, MC Daniel attended a wedding last Sunday (13), his first public appearance since the separation. The funk artist participated in the ceremony of digital influencer Buzeira , alongside well-known names in the music scene, such as MC Ryan and Oruam.
Known as "Falcão do Funk," Daniel documented moments from the party on his Instagram profile , where he appears smiling, posing with the newlyweds and colleagues. He displayed a lighthearted demeanor throughout the celebration, even after it ended, which gained attention on social media and in the specialized media.
FUNKEIRO SURPRISES WITH R$81,000 SUIT
For the occasion, the artist chose a striking suit by international designer Philipp Plein, valued at approximately R$81,000. With silver logos all over the piece, the expensive look caught the attention of those present and internet users.
During the traditional "tie" moment— where guests make symbolic donations to the bride and groom — MC Daniel made an unusual gesture. He tossed and turned between offering a gold chain, a designer watch, or a pair of luxury sneakers. In the end, he chose to ditch the sneakers and walked barefoot through the party. The funk singer also shared photos and videos of himself having dinner, being approached by fans, and interacting with friends in a relaxed atmosphere.
MC DANIEL AND LORENA MARIA SEPARATION
Daniel 's presence at the event comes just days after he officially announced his split from Lorena Maria on social media. In the statement, he praised his ex-partner, with whom he has a son, and asked for respect: " I don't want anyone to speak ill of Lorena. She is an incredible woman and will always be defended by me," the singer wrote in a post.

Cruzeiro achieved an impressive 4-1 victory over Grêmio this Sunday (13), in a duel valid for the 13th round of the 2025 Brazilian Championship. Playing at the Independência stadium, the Minas Gerais club had a great performance from striker Kaio Jorge , who scored three goals, and defender Villalba, who also scored.
With Gabigol, the former Mais Querido striker , on the bench, Raposa confirmed its strength playing at home. The result puts the Celeste team in second place in the competition with 27 points – the same number as leaders Flamengo, who still have a game in hand. Grêmio, meanwhile, remains in 12th place with 16 points.
DOMAIN OF THE CRUISE
From the opening minutes, Cruzeiro demonstrated superiority. Kaio Jorge opened the scoring with precision, and shortly after, Villalba took advantage of the opponent's defensive fragility to extend the lead. The first-half statistics also reflected the dominance of the Minas Gerais team: they had six shots on goal to Grêmio's one, in addition to having greater possession (54%) and six corners in favor of the Raposa.
KAIO JORGE SCORES HAT-TRICK
After the restart, Kaio Jorge kept up the pace and completed a hat trick, cementing his position as the man of the match. Grêmio even pulled one back through André Henrique, but couldn't overturn Cruzeiro's lead.
Although Gabigol put the ball in the net in the final minutes, the goal was disallowed due to the striker's offside position. The Minas Gerais team's consistent performance secured an undisputed victory in front of their home fans, further boosting their lead in the Brasileirão.
FLAMENGO'S NEXT CHALLENGE
Flamengo returns to the field next Wednesday (16) to face Santos at 8:30 pm . Cruzeiro travels to Rio de Janeiro to face Fluminense next Thursday (17), at 7:30 pm.
