Recalling moments from his career, Amaury Jr revealed what it was like meeting bossa nova icon João Gilberto
The host Amaury Jr, 73 years old, he recalled some moments that marked his career, including the unprecedented meeting with Joao Gilberto, who died in 2019. In an interview with Caras Brazil, Amaury he underlined that the chat with the bossa nova icon, in his program on TV Cultura, was a truly unexpected moment, since the artist was quite reserved.
“He offered to talk to me, because he didn’t give interviews to anyone. It was the launch of a beer brand and they invited me to meet João Gilberto. I saw that he was very friendly with me because he already knew me. He said: ‘ Aren’t you Amaury? I’ll sleep with you'”, He said.
And he added: “He said: ‘Ah, I won’t answer this one, Nelsinho will answer this one’. I also joke by saying that it wasn’t an interview, it was stammering. Because we also counted the words he had said. But it made headlines in all the newspapers .”
After years of an interview which was highlighted in the media, the presenter underlines it as a positive result “He never attributed the Bossa Nova beat to him. Everyone knows it was João Gilberto’s, but he said it was Roberto Silva’s. Then they went looking for Roberto Silva. He said so little and raised such an important issue.” , finished.
