Rafa Kalimann says that Casa Kalimann program ‘wasn’t good for the public’

Former BBC presenter Rafa Kalimann, 28, spoke about her career in a corporate lecture this week and commented on the program Casa Kalimann (Globoplay), which she debuted in 2021 at the invitation of Boninho and was not well received by the public .

“The name of the program was what 12-year-old Rafa created, and it could have been a ‘no’, because it wasn’t good. I needed to take risks, learn from that moment to value the opportunities that opened so many doors for me” , began Kalimann.

She went on to say that the attraction did not please the audience, but that it was an important step in her personal life. “The program was not good for the audience, but it was good for me, for me to put my feet on the ground. Like that Rafa back there, and take a step back, when that same Rafa did when she went back to her parents’ house “, completed the ex-BBB.

In May of this year, she even commented on the criticism she received for the program. “Because criticism is okay as long as they are with the intention of seeing an improvement. They are welcome because I know there is a lot to happen, it’s just starting,” he said at the time.

“The problem is when they come to try to discourage you and make you give up, which is what has happened a lot,” added Kalimann. In the series of videos posted, she even displays a sentence that says “I have faith”.

Casa Kalimann debuted on April 28 at Globoplay, under the general direction of Adriano Ricco. The first episode was recorded with comedian Rafael Portugal. As the presenter told in an interview with F5, the proposal came as a surprise, directly from the director of BBB, José Bonifácio de Oliveira, known as Boninho.

Until then, Rafa took acting classes, invested in acting, and was even quoted to play Juma, in the remake of “Pantanal”. “He totally took me by surprise,” she says in an online press chat. “He said that was the same idea, to take me by surprise to prevent me from researching, being influenced. And Casa Kalimann started to be born there.”
