Controversies

[edit]

In 2020, she suffered verbal abuse and discrimination from members of the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God. At the time, she was accompanying a friend with a disability who was having difficulties using the restroom. When she tried to intervene, due to her makeup and profession as a Drag queen, she was targeted for retaliation by those present, including security personnel. The incident garnered nationwide attention, leading to an investigation by the social communication and institutional relations department of the Universal Church, ultimately resulting in a formal apology.[10][11]

In 2022, she accused actor Thomaz Costa of engaging in transphobia during their romantic involvement, stating that he proposed a confidentiality agreement. Following the exposure of the case, she faced intense criticism and chose to share a farewell letter with her fans.[12][13][14]

The individual in question, has been the subject of controversy due to her public statements, including accusations leveled at prominent figures such as Flávio Bolsonaro.[15] On one occasion, she claimed that the politician was involved in sexual activities with a transgender friend during a party, resulting in Flávio Bolsonaro filing a legal suit against her.[16] This assertion highlighted the intersection between freedom of expression and legal accountability, as well as the potential political exploitation of sensitive issues such as gender identity and sexual orientation.[17] Additionally, the individual in question has a history of accusations against other famous personalities, suggesting a pattern of behavior that may be perceived as a quest for notoriety at any cost.[18]
