Tirullipa Ordered to Pay R$30,000 for Nonconsensual Acts at Farofa da Gkay

The July 30 ruling relies on video evidence of exposed bodies and unwanted touching while treating participation in a game as not equating to consent.

Overview

  • Judge Leila Regina Corado Lobato of the 36ª Vara Cível de Fortaleza issued the decision that the comedian must pay R$30,000 in moral damages, R$15,000 to each of two Paraíba women, and cover court costs.
  • The ruling found that during a Banheira do Gugu–style game at the December 2022 Farofa da Gkay event Tirullipa untied a bikini and touched breasts without the women’s consent.
  • Video clips filmed at the event were entered into the record and the judge said their wide circulation on social platforms amplified the victims’ humiliation and strengthened the plaintiffs’ case.
  • The lawsuit was decided in civil court and the sentence is a first‑instance ruling that remains subject to appeal; the cases connected to this episode have produced multiple separate civil condemnations.
  • Lawyers for the women said the verdict affirms that public figures do not have license to invade bodily boundaries during entertainment and the decision may raise expectations of greater civil accountability for similar incidents.
