Ex-BBB Vanessa Lopes said she suffered harassment in her career as a digital influencer. In an interview with Ela magazine, Vanessa also spoke about the judgment she suffers on social media. The influencer reveals that harassment goes beyond the screen, citing situations in which her body was touched without consent.
"Harassment through social media and in person is something very frequent in my life, especially from men. I have had episodes of men passing their hands on my body without my permission, such as on my face, legs, hands and even my butt, and unfortunately in situations like this I had no reaction", remembers Vanessa.
The digital influencer accumulates 30.9 million followers on Tik Tok and over 15 million followers on Instagram. She says she realized that there was sexism in the dynamics surrounding the visibility she built on the internet when followers began to harass her personally when following her content. "I started to be harassed by men who thought that by following me on social media they could take liberties with me, or because they simply judged me for my dances and clothes, and at times I was known for being someone's 'affair'", she reports.
The former BBB reveals that she considers that social networks can function as a showcase for dialogue and also as an educational space. "We all have our flags and we must defend them and express our ideas with knowledge. I am a very reflective person and I like to think a lot before taking a position, taking into account how people will interpret my words and , as you mentioned, the internet has a very selective 'court'", he says. Vanessa also says she refrains from talking or posting about certain topics when she feels that she is not sufficiently informed. "Although I don't speak on every issue, I try to align myself with the causes I believe in and where I see I can make a difference."
Vanessa says she feels that judgment on social media seems to be selective. "Women are always being reproached for something, when men are being 'acquitted' for the same thing. Furthermore, women's bodies are a constant social debate, they are sexualized and we are still placed as rivals, because it seems that these are the things that sell." The influencer was confined with model Yasmin Brunet in the edition of BBB 24. Brunet is the ex-wife of professional surfer Gabriel Medina, with whom Vanessa has already been identified as having an affair. Both talked and created a friendly relationship during and after the program.

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.
The club is accused of using "Clube da Esquina nº 2" without authorization in the advertisement for the number 9, in a video published on social media in January 2025

Singer Milton Nascimento and record label Sony Music filed a lawsuit against Cruzeiro Esporte Clube, alleging the improper use of the song "Clube da Esquina nº 2". The work, written by Milton, Lô Borges and Márcio Borges , was allegedly used without authorization in a video posted on the club's social media in January 2025, during the announcement of Gabigol's signing from Flamengo.
According to information published by the newspaper O Globo, the video was produced and released by Cruzeiro without the proper authorization of the artists involved in the song's creation . Sony Music , which represents the copyright of the work, is seeking compensation for material damages, while Milton Nascimento and the Borges brothers are seeking compensation for moral damages.
The court order stipulates a sum of R$50,000 for each of the songwriters involved . Despite the good relationship between the artist and the Minas Gerais club in the recent past, the lawsuit remains ongoing due to the dispute between the parties.
In 2022, after announcing his retirement from the stage at the age of 80, Milton Nascimento was honored by Cruzeiro at a concert held at the Mineirão stadium in Belo Horizonte. On the occasion, the singer received a personalized jersey from the team and a letter describing him as " Cruzeiro's international ambassador ."
The lawsuit highlights the importance of respecting copyright when using musical works, especially in advertising materials and highly visible social media content . Despite the history of tributes, the composers claim that the lack of formal consent for the use of the song violates their rights and compromises the recognition of the intellectual property involved.
