Singer Ivete Sangalo, 49, who has already been criticized for not taking a political stand, started dancing while the audience cursed President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) during a concert in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, on Wednesday night (29) . A video from that moment of the presentation was published on social media and went viral.
In the recording, you can hear the audience scream “Hey Bolsonaro, go take your ass”. When Ivete hears the curse, she provokes: “I didn’t hear. It’s quiet.” Then the singer starts dancing while people scream louder. “[Ele] will end up hearing it so loud it was,” he says.
The singer’s reaction to the public’s protest takes place after rains intense that hit Bahia in the last days leave at least 24 dead and the president continue on vacation in Santa Catarina. He sent four federal government ministers to the region. But Fábio Almeida, the singer’s manager, said that “she only gave voice to the people”.
In June, when Brazil surpassed 500,000 deaths by Covid-19, Ivete uttered her indignation on Instagram. “It is appalling to think about the thousands of lives taken and the irreparable pain surrounding these losses,” she wrote. “It’s not about parties, it’s about humanity.”
The singer also published a statement on social media in which she said that the current Brazilian government does not represent her, but that this will be resolved in the next elections by the power of the vote.
“My zamuris, I understand how necessary it is at this moment not to establish doubts about what I believe. This government that is here does not represent me even before its idea exists. And that will be resolved when we join forces in the next elections, through the power of the vote,” he wrote.
