John Leeson of Rita Lee, was also there and spoke to the press. Shortly before opening the ceremony to fans, the musician commented on the importance and legacy of his mother.
“I had a conversation with her about the importance of choosing our idols, our heroes. For sure, if you ask a child, who is that child’s hero, you have a chance to know who he will be in his life. She’s done so much, from shows, tours, records, set design, it’s crazy how many accomplishments she’s had. But that’s not why she’s the best. She is better because of her sensitivity, her humility, the way she had to communicate with the public, with the world, she is a very unique person. For me, she will be eternal.”
