Shortly after the Minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), Alexandre de Moraes, ordered the suspension of the activities of X (formerly Twitter) in Brazil, politicians and internet users quickly adopted a new social network to share messages: Threads. The platform, launched in July 2023 by Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, emerged as an alternative to X, but until then it had not gained wide support.

BLUESKY'S WELCOME TO BRAZILIANS

In addition to Threads, Bluesky, another emerging social network, also recorded a significant increase in activity from Brazilian users. Through its official profile, Bluesky celebrated the growth and welcomed new members: “Brazil, you are setting new activity records on Bluesky”. The company also provided a dedicated space for new users to clarify doubts about the platform. Since the departure of /p>

The search for Threads on Google has increased exponentially since August 28, when Alexandre de Moraes gave an “ultimatum” to X, demanding that the social network appoint a legal representative in Brazil within 24 hours, under penalty of immediate suspension in the country. With the increase in tensions between the minister and Elon Musk, many internet users anticipated the possible suspension of the platform and began looking for alternatives.

Although Google Trends does not disclose absolute numbers, it uses an index that varies from zero to one hundred to indicate growth trends in searches. Before 08/28, the search index for Threads was between 50 and 55 points. However, as the situation worsened, this number rose to 58 points. On August 29th, the search index reached 91 points, and on August 30th, the date on which the X block came into effect, the index reached the maximum score of 100.

Globo has forwarded an agreement with actress Bella Campos for her to be part of the cast of the remake of "Vale Tudo", scheduled to air in April 2025 in the network's prime time. In the plot, she will be Maria de Fátima, daughter of Raquel, who in the new version will be played by Taís Araújo.

The column found that all that remains is to sign the contract. Globo is not confirming Bella yet because of this and also for strategic reasons. The company should only start talking about the remake in October.


Bella was not the favorite for the role. She only tested last month. Julia Dalavia appeared behind the scenes for the choice. However, she weighed two factors. The first was the fact that Bella was a trusted name for Paulo Silvestrini, the director responsible for the remake. They worked together in "Vai na Fé" (2023).


The second is more logical: Bella convinces the public more as Taís Araújo's daughter than Julia would, because they physically resemble each other. Bella's popularity among young audiences and her performance in recent soap operas also weighed heavily.

Bella Campos is 26 years old and is from Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. She debuted on TV in 2022 as Muda, in the remake of "Pantanal" (2022). Her performance earned her the award for best supporting actress at the 2022 Best of the Year.


Her debut was supposed to take place in 2020. She passed tests to be part of that year's season of "Malhação", which was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The soap opera never returned to the air.

In addition to Taís Araújo and Bella Campos, names such as Cauã Reymond and Paolla Oliveira are also included in the serial's cast. Fernanda Torres negotiates to be Odete Roitman.

In its original version, "Vale Tudo" told the story of Raquel, who is abandoned by her husband and is forced to raise her daughter, the ambitious Maria de Fátima, alone. , then played by Gloria Pires. Its ending was suspenseful thanks to the question that made Brazil stop: "Who killed Odete Roitman?".

In addition to the original airing, the plot had three reruns: one on Globo in 1992 (when standards image quality requirements were not as high as from the following decade) and two others on the Viva channel, in 2010 and 2018.

In 2022, Globo even considered a rerun of the plot in Vale Pena Ver de Novo, instead of the re-exhibition of "The Clone" (2001), but the plans were scrapped.
