Singer Anitta, 29, who has just released the album “Versions of Me”, criticized her ex, businessman Thiago Magalhães, with whom she was married for less than a year and from whom she separated in 2018.
To Nylon magazine, the Brazilian gave her version of the old relationship. “[Ele] was not really a husband. It was just because I needed it [ele] sign a prenuptial agreement,” she said.
At the time, she wanted to keep their financial lives separate. “I arranged it. I was in love, but I wanted to separate my money – I was rational. I knew he wouldn’t sign if I didn’t put the love thing together,” she said.
“If you’re in love, make sure you sign a prenuptial agreement. No matter what,” he amended to the publication, the same one she vehemently criticized because of a headline that linked her to a sentence about Brazilians adoring sex.
Assumed bisexual, Anitta also talked about it. “I hate hiding things. I fuck girls too,” she said. According to the magazine, Anitta is currently in an open relationship. “I have 15 million boyfriends.”
The Brazilian artist also criticized machismo in her interview. “It’s crazy how people need to describe [mulheres]. ‘This is a woman to marry; this is a woman to enjoy’. Screw this. I want to be ‘the married woman’ and ‘the party girl'”, he added.
Anitta also highlighted that “girls don’t need men for shit”. “We have vibrators, we have friends. We have gay friends, which is so much better,” she concluded.
Among the 15 tracks of “Versions of Me”, Anitta’s recently released album, this is the one that best represents the balance of these versions of the singer – one aimed at the United States, the one that is in greater evidence, and another aimed at Latin America. , is in the background, in addition to the Brazilian one, which works as a kind of backdrop.
“The challenge I set myself, when I embarked on an international career, was to work with Brazilian, Latin American and American audiences at the same time, non-stop”, she tells this reporter, in responses by email.
“I confess that it’s not always easy, but ‘Versions of Me’, a trilingual album, with multicultural and diverse references, is the consolidation of this three-way work, you know? In this project I don’t try to embrace the world, but I embrace all the my facets.”
The album ties this plan together, of working on three fronts to extrapolate the borders of Brazil. It’s an unprecedented move in which the singer pleads — and sometimes gets — a place in the top division of pop music in the world.
“I’ve been working on this record for about three years. It’s had another name, another face. But it’s always been a reflection of who I am as an artist. And, like any human being, he’s changed along the way.” “Versions of Me” features Anitta working on American pop based on EDM, electronic dance music. There’s “Boys Don’t Cry,” a single she sang with Miley Cyrus on the latest Lollapalooza, the title track, a Katy Perry-style pop, and “Ur Baby,” an R&B song reminiscent of Drake, in collaboration with Khalid.
