At 39 years old, Gisele Frade she reflects tenderly on her career as a child actress. Launched into stardom as the orphan Bia in the first Brazilian version of Chiquititas (SBT, 1997), the artist admits that dealing with the label wasn’t always easy.

“I’ve made other relevant works like Chiquititas, but they still remember a lot of them Bia. The public remembers him with great affection. In the past, as a child or in my pre-adolescence, I was a bit grumpy because they only said ‘chiquitita chiquititas’… But then, we grow up and see that the whole generation has grown up and given new meaning to the story. This is the most beautiful thing. It’s a thoughtful place.”he explained.

Chiquititas cast reunion

Others I hadn’t seen for years. I didn’t see the Gi Medeiros 25 years ago. It was a meeting where my heart beat faster than Vai-Vai’s drums”he revealed, citing São Paulo’s iconic samba school.
