Xuxa spoke more about the death of a fan of hers in 2018. The event was portrayed in the second episode of the artist's documentary series, which came out on Globoplay this Thursday (20).

The Queen of the Little People explained that the young man, Hernan Mondragon, had sent her a message on social media a few days ago, commenting on one of her photos, stressing that he would die when he saw her. This line, made innocently, turned out to be a premonition.

On a trip to Argentina, Xuxa was welcomed by her fans at the airport. Among them was Hernan, who eventually suffered a heart attack. He died in the midst of the uproar, even after the former singer's team tried to rescue him. She even tried to help him, but was banned, to ensure her own safety in the midst of confusion.


At the time, the case caused commotion and Xuxa even paid homage to him on the internet. And in her Documentary she vented: "It's scary how human beings can love someone they don't know so much. Who often gives their lives for me. I'm sure that some give their lives, some have even said that and fatalities have happened, people who have died".

Journalist 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.

Planet 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."
CONTEXTUALIZATION AT ROCK IN RIO

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.



IMPORTANCE OF THE COLLECTIVE

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.

Presenter Xuxa Meneghel participated in the launch of the documentary produced about her former assistants, in Rio, this past Tuesday (10). Happy to see some of the paquitas again, she revealed how happy she was with the result of the production.

“Yes. I was surprised. It was a great surprise to discover impactful stories that I had not even imagined”, revealed the eternal queen of short people to the F5 portal. The relationship between her businesswoman and the girls was also addressed in the production.

Ana Paula Guimarães, Xuxa's ex-paquita, directed the documentary alongside Ivo Filho, and exposed the assistants' jealousy, sorrows and fights of the presenter. The difficult relationship most of them had with director Marlene Mattos, who at the time was Xuxa's manager, was also discussed: “She was a sergeant,” said Ana.


Another former stage assistant, Priscila Couto, who is now a lawyer, said how much pressure she was under from the former director: “I couldn’t gain weight. I was under a lot of pressure. For a long time this bothered me. I took this with me. I resolved it years later in therapy,” she said. “She made life hell for many of us”, endorsed Priscila’s colleague, who was also a paquita.


According to screenwriter Paulo Mario Martins, Marlene Mattos was approached by the production team to give her version, but she didn’t want to record interview. The documentary "Para Smepre Paquitas" premieres on Globoplay next Monday (16).
