Fans of Anitta, 29, continue to honor Marília Mendonça, who would have turned 27 this Friday (22). They remembered when the funkeira won the category of Best Singer of “Domingão do Faustão” (Globo) in 2016, but made a point of sharing the award on stage with the sertaneja, who died in a plane crash in early November 2021.
“I’m very happy to have won this award, but I want to share it with Marília. It’s a happiness to be elected by my fans, but I can win today, tomorrow it can be Marília and the day after tomorrow, me again and so on. I love her very much”, began Anitta, declaring herself to the sertaneja
“It’s very difficult to conquer things with personality. Marília is like that and those who liked it, liked it and those who didn’t like it, didn’t like it. I love that and that’s why she is so successful. She writes very well and gives her compositions as a gift to friends. Marília is not a selfish person. I won, but if she won, she would also be happy”, continued Anitta.
“I heard Anitta call me and I came back! The shoe was hurting me”, said Marília, in a good mood and who arrived barefoot on stage. After hugging each other on stage, the countrywoman sang a snippet of “Infiel” a cappella. “First of all, I want to explain why I’m barefoot. I have a show and I took off my shoes to go there. I really want to thank you. We have something very beautiful. said Marilia.
She also left a message for all women in the country, whether artists or anonymous. “This year is for women. We are conquering our space every day more and that’s what I want: this union. I always want to build this union between the singers”, declared Marília at the time.
