It's impossible to look back at 2008 without mentioning the celebrities. They are the ones that, unfortunately, more than just a tragedy in Santa Catarina, attract the attention of the media.
Most of the time, celebrities just want the spotlight and, almost always, they get it. From there, it's a step towards success. Many become presenters, singers, actresses, models, dancers… Anyway, as someone else would say, to be on the cover of a magazine, all you need to do is be on the dance floor!
Heath Ledger
A big loss. At least we're lucky that Ledger was chosen to play cowboy Ennis Del Mar in Brokeback Mountain
Marcelo Arantes and Thati Bione
Who? Guys, don't do it. They are the ex-BBBs! Obviously we couldn't talk about celebrities without mentioning them. One made us afraid to go to psychiatric offices and the other showed us that after a night of drinking... no closet can hide us.
Thiago Mendonca
He played Bernadinho, a homosexual character in the soap opera "Duas Caras", and generated controversy in his scenes with Carlão (Lugui Palhares). The only thing missing was the gay kiss, but we're already used to Central Globo de Produções!
Aguinaldo Silva
Speaking of 'Duas Caras', the author's blog was a separate chapter in the plot. There were even those who wondered which was getting more audience: the serial or the controversial posts published by Aguinaldo. In fact, the author recently posted that he suffered sexual abuse as a child. In this revelation, his blog received 87 thousand visits in a single day.
rogeria
Perhaps, 2008 was one of Rogéria's best years. The actress made an appearance in the soap opera 'Duas Caras' which got people talking, but no less than her statement that she would be embarrassed to give a gay kiss. Whoa.
Ronaldo Phenomenon
'What would green be if everyone liked yellow', right people? Ronaldo ALMOST showed that this saying always makes sense, in the case of involvement with transvestites.
Matthew Mitcham
In addition to being talented and gay, he is out! The handsome guy earned it and did well in the last Olympics. In addition to innovating in sport, Matthew has graced the covers of gay magazines and has increasingly contributed to breaking down prejudice.
Rodrigo Phavanelo and Claudia Jimenez
Actor and actress, ok. But this year they were like celebrities, oh they did. Let me explain: when you start to appear in the media without being a result of your professional work, but rather because of your romantic relationships, shopping, clubbing, scandals… you then become a celebrity, even if it is in the junior category.
Ana Carolina and Adriane Galisteu
Singer and presenter, beautiful couple, right? Too bad it wasn't just a buzz, or bisexuality. After all, Ana Carolina is bi, so what?
Didi
Despite featuring celebrities on her blog 'Te dou um Dado?', Didi always dreamed of appearing in the gossip columns. This year, the blogger climbed another step to success with his program Gay Show, on the MTV blog. Celebrity is not enough for him.
Lilia Cabral and Paula Burlamaqui
Catarina and Stela, respectively. The two are putting on a great performance in 'The Favorite'. Also noteworthy is the author João Emanuel Carneiro who nailed the approach and text for the two scenes.
Maria christina
The cookie singer from Ídolos didn't win the competition, but she garnered a lot of young fans across these lakes in our Brazil.
Marcelo Silva
Sad end... After so much fuss and confusion, the one who really came out as the villain of the story was Ana Maria Braga.
Christian Pior
Glamor is not enough, this year the suburban boy took the stairs, my dear. And best of all, without tripping while jumping. Christian gained more space in the media and was also invited to be a judge on the Gongo show.
Claudia Leitte
After having a misinterpreted quote, Claudinha Leitte just had to sing 'Extravasa, libera e throw everything in the air' for LGBT activists.
Ronaldo Esper
At the end of the year, the bilú only had to say that the nightclub is now a nudist beach. After all, what are the clothes for, right?
Madonna
Always, she is on the celebrity podium. But this year, we overdosed on the diva. In the newspaper, in magazines, on the radio, on the internet... it was just Madonna, the queen of pop.
