The singer Anitta accused, last Sunday night (24), the journalist Leo Dias to blackmail her.
In a video on Instagram, Anitta reported that for “years” she has been threatened by the columnist for UOL and SBT presenter of having old messages, exchanged between them, published.
According to the singer, the blackmail began when she denied an article published by Dias about the alleged departure of Anitta's mother from the house where she lived with the singer because she did not live well with her daughter's lifestyle.
Anitta said that the journalist was angry and since then, has threatened her with making public messages that could harm the singer's career; These messages would involve other famous singers, such as Ivete Sangalo, Preta Gil, Pabllo Vittar and Marília Mendonça.
“I prefer to deal with the turmoil of having audios and conversations leaked by you, Léo Dias, than living in constant fear of blackmail of what could happen to my career or my life,” he said. “You can release anything you have on me. I will continue to be the person I am.”
Anitta mentioned Dias' drug addiction, a subject that the journalist had already spoken about openly in the past. “I even helped him write a book about me, I talked about treatment. However, I really felt lost several times”, said the singer.
