Overview

  • Her Instagram reached the 1 million mark on Jan. 21 and continued to rise, with one outlet reporting roughly 1.3 million followers later in January.
  • She started with about 2,000 followers at her Casa de Vidro announcement, hit 500,000 on Jan. 20, then doubled to 1 million within hours.
  • The spike was fueled by her 'Sincerão' line to Sarah Andrade that went viral, drawing strong reactions including a supportive comment from former winner Juliette.
  • After failing to enter directly from the Centro-Oeste Casa de Vidro, she endured more than five days in the Quarto Branco and joined the main house immune and in the VIP group.
  • Coverage on Jan. 22 underscored her background, noting she was recently unemployed and previously earned R$1,425.60 per month as a bakery counter attendant in Brasília, below the minimum wage.
