Did you or did you not have oral sex? Yuri Meirelles, 23, bursts out laughing and soon kills the curiosity about the controversial scene he starred with Anitta in a clip recorded in the community of Tijuquinha, west of Rio, last Thursday (26).
“There was no intimate contact. She didn’t even touch me over my shorts. It was all a simulation, a game of scene”, says the model who, despite the pressure, swears he wasn’t nervous. “I just needed to concentrate because it was Anitta, right? She had to be professional, like everyone else there”, he explains.
A marketing student, Yuri recently started working as a model, and the invitation to participate in Anitta’s video was a surprise. Not to mention that the call came at the last minute. “A producer called me the same day, I had to fly there. I arrived at the location and waited a while because there were other guys waiting to find out what our role in the clip would be”, she summarizes.
In Meirelles’ mind, he would be a mere extra in the production, even for the fee he had initially been paid. But everything has changed. “A person from her team called me aside and said that they had chosen me for the oral sex scene. I was a little dizzy with the information, but I agreed at the time”, he says.
Yuri does not reveal figures, but admits that for practically having “become the protagonist” of the clip, he won triple what was initially agreed. “I can only say that it was more than R$500 and less than R$1,000.”
Anitta, by the way, was the one who broke the ice when the two approached to find out details of the scene. “She asked my name, what I did and, then, the conversation started to flow. She is very simple. We even talked a little more later, we exchanged. But nothing happened”, assures the boy , who doesn’t have a girlfriend and only told his parents and friends that he was the model for the trelelê with Anitta when the repercussions on the networks were already big, because of a leaked video.
“Nobody believed it”, he recalls, laughing. By the way, the repercussion of the clip left Yuri impressed. Work meetings arose, he became the subject in the neighborhood of Recreio dos Bandeirantes, also in the west zone of Rio, and in less than 24 hours he gained more than 100 thousand followers on the networks.
“[Foi] crazy. Everyone wanting to know who I was, everyone curious to know me”, justifies the model, who did not delete his profiles on the networks. In fact, he was hacked. “A crazy person entered my pages and changed all the passwords. He even charged me money to return everything. I’m trying to get my profiles back,” he says.
