“With all due respect, there is no need to stay behind that dark image, no. I won’t even say your name. There is no need to be ashamed, no. On the contrary. There is nothing that justifies it. She is the one who should be ashamed. We really need your work. And it is not because you are gay. That is also not a condition for you to be targeted by criminals. I am too, so what? It is not because you are a garbage man that makes you smaller. I am here to present a newspaper and I am too. [gay]. Will you curse me too, will you strike me?” said the anchor.

The woman attacked the street cleaner in a train car headed to Ceilândia, in the Federal District. She boarded the car at Guará station and got off at Arniqueiras. In the video, she claims to have been called a “slut.” On the other hand, other subway users do not seem to agree with her. In the interview with Daniel Adjuto, the worker commented that the woman acted with prejudice, because he was a street cleaner and was homosexual.

At the time, as soon as he came out, he faced increasing harassment from fans, but nothing escaped his respect. “I receive a lot of affection, thank God, I think that since I came out publicly, even more has arrived, but in the sense of respect. There is flirting, but with respect.”

When asked about his current relationship status, the journalist was categorical: “I’m single, thank God.” He also revealed: “I haven’t kissed anyone today.”
