0Imagine the 20th edition of Big Brother Brasil without Babu Santana... This could have become reality, at least from a certain point on in the program.

During an interview with OtaLab, Otaviado Costa's program, the artist revealed that his participation in Big Brother was almost cut short. “On the second day I did that miserable race and discovered that I was ultra sedentary. I had ear cramps for two weeks. I didn't even know it caused ear cramps. I was all screwed up. I didn't know I was pre-diabetic”, he described.
“I was almost eliminated because of it. The guy said 'If you can't lower your blood sugar, I'll have to eliminate you from the game'. There I stopped drinking soda during the day”, he added, talking about the habits he had to change in order to continue.
Babu had everything to want to continue in the competition, after all, it was his chance to relaunch his career. your career and to give a better life for your family. He recalled, together with Otaviano, the moment he decided to join BBB:
“It was until the day I decided to accept doing Big Brother. My son was leaving, I had R$5 in my pocket and two rolls with butter and a coffee. I was very sad that that day my son went to school with the only R$5 I had in my pocket, he ate a piece of bread, I offered mine to him, and I didn't know what he was going to have for lunch.”
It's good to remember that Babu had a great journey on BBB 20. The actor was one of the protagonists of the season, with the duo being inseparable from Filipe Prior for several weeks. The Flamengo player even managed to reach fourth place, being eliminated in the last wall before the program's final between Manu Gavassi, Rafa Calliman and Thelminha.
The presenter responds to criticism on social media about audience ratings

0Journalist Rachel Sheherazade used her social networks to vent and launch a hint after another edition of Domingo Record. The presenter, who debuted on the network about a month ago, did not hide her dissatisfaction with the criticism regarding the low audience numbers of her attraction.
In a publication, Sheherazade stated that "whoever gets likes on On top of hate, it's not a good thing", suggesting that the same goes for television ratings. The message was perceived as a response to the negative comments that have been circulating since her debut on the Sunday program.
On social media, many internet users understood the presenter's speech as an indirect dig at fellow presenter Celso Portiolli, who runs Domingo Legal on SBT. The talk show is Rachel's main competitor on Sunday afternoons and has maintained a solid second place in ratings, consolidating itself as unbeatable in the time slot.
Sheherazade's statement came shortly after an episode in which she would have mocked her former broadcaster, SBT, where she worked for several years. The gaffe happened precisely on the day of Matheus Ceará's debut in the Sunday magazine, a fact that also generated comments among the public.
DEFEAT IN THE AUDIENCE
Domingo Legal, once again, surpassed Domingo Record with a significant difference. According to the numbers released, Celso Portiolli's program reached the mark of 6 audience points, while Sheherazade's program had an average of around 3.4 points.
The main agenda of the Record edition was the press conference by comedian Matheus Ceará, who visited the new headquarters of the reality show A Fazenda 2024 and revealed some of the cast, but still failed to attract the necessary attention to beat the competition.

0Planet Hemp's lead singer, Marcelo D2, expressed criticism of the ostentatious theme present in trap lyrics, during a press conference at Rock in Rio 2024. The singer, who took to the stage with Planet Hemp last Sunday ( 15/9) and will return to the festival on Saturday (21/9) with a rap project, stated that the excessive appreciation of luxury and success in music of the genre can be a "trap" for young artists.
< Marcelo D2 was emphatic in his opinion about the recurring theme in trap: "I think it's all shit. This movement nowadays among younger kids, I think there's something that bothers me a little in this new generation, which is ostentation , I think it's a f*cked up trap." The musician warned that the reality of most favelas is still far from what is portrayed in the lyrics, emphasizing that "the favela has not won, it is still starving, without basic sanitation, without health."The first day of Rock in Rio this year was dominated by trap, with performances by Brazilian artists such as Orochi, Oruam and Chefin, as well as American rapper Travis Scott. Trap has been gaining more and more space on streaming platforms, often highlighting themes related to luxury and success. However, for Marcelo D2, as long as favelas continue to face challenges such as lack of infrastructure and essential services, the victory speech will be superficial.
D2 also mentioned rapper Emicida as an example of a more collective and less individualistic vision. "The street is us, it's not me", stated D2, reinforcing the idea that the community's true victory will come when all its members benefit, and not just a few. The musician highlighted that individual success does not represent a structural change in the living conditions of the majority.

His trajectory showed the impact that media personalities can have at the polls.
Another name that made history was Jean Wyllys, winner of Big Brother Brasil 5, who served as federal deputy for Rio de Janeiro between 2010 and 2018. His political career, however, ended in 2019, after receiving threats that put his security at risk, highlighting the challenges faced by politicians in Brazil.
In addition to them, other celebrities also entered political life. Ratinho, famous TV presenter, was a councilor in Jandaia do Sul and Curitiba, as well as a federal deputy. Leci Brandão, renowned singer and songwriter, has been a state deputy in São Paulo since 2010 and was re-elected several times, consolidating her position as an active voice in São Paulo politics.
Romário, Brazilian football idol, also migrated to politics, occupying positions as federal deputy and senator, always with an outstanding performance. Gilberto Gil, music icon, was a councilor in Salvador in 1989 and Minister of Culture in the government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in 2003.
