Fernanda Maia, a well-known host on “SBT Sports Rio,” recently got a lot of bad feedback online after she wore a low-cut top and torn jeans on the show. This outfit choice quickly caused a stir, with many watchers questioning her taste in clothes and whether it was appropriate for TV. Even though she was criticized, Fernanda handled the situation with style and fun. She talked about the reaction on the next day’s show, making a joke about how she hadn’t even spoken yet and was already getting bad feedback. She ignored the comments with a laugh, knowing that people have different opinions and making fun of the attention her looks had gotten.
During the show, Fernanda kept making jokes about the situation in response to Venê Casagrande’s funny comments about her clothes. She also said that some of the responses to her outfit were based on misunderstandings, but she stressed how important it is to understand that everyone has their own thoughts. As a joke, she said that views are like “butts”—everyone has one, so everyone has the right to their own point of view. This response showed that she could deal with bad feelings with humor, which meant she wasn’t taking the criticism too seriously.
Her coworkers on the show told her they supported her and shared their own thoughts on the issue. Venê Casagrande said that everyone has the right to say what they think, but that some things might be better left unsaid. Lucas Pedrosa, another critic, had a more thoughtful view. He said that not saying anything is sometimes more powerful than saying something. The team members’ friendship showed that they all supported Fernanda, which pushed the idea that personal style choices shouldn’t get in the way of professional skills.
People had a range of reactions to Fernanda’s outfit. Some made jokes about it on social media, with one person jokingly remarking that soon TV hosts might be seen in bikinis. While others supported her, some said that her style was casual and “Carioca,” which is typical of Rio de Janeiro’s fashion scene. Another follower said that when people can’t find anything wrong with someone’s work, they often judge their personal things, like what they wear or how they look. A lot of famous people, especially women in the media, have to deal with this shift in attention from their professional skills to how they look.
A lot of important things have happened in Fernanda Maia’s work, starting with her job as a ball girl in a football game between Botafogo and Vasco da Gama in 2012. People paid attention to how quickly she thought during the game, which helped her team score an important goal. This event changed the course of her career and opened up job possibilities in broadcasting. When she started working for Lance!TV in 2013, she quickly became known for how relaxed she was on camera. She was asked to join José Carlos Araújo’s new show on Band Rio after his work caught his attention. In 2015, she started working for SBT, and by 2019, she was the host of “SBT Sports Rio,” where she has continued to do well.
Fernanda’s ability to keep her cool under pressure by finding fun in the situation shows how strong she is. In the entertainment business, especially for women with high-profile jobs, how they look is often looked at along with their work. Fernanda stays focused on her work despite the negative comments. She uses the chance to show that she is not easily swayed by criticism. Her answer shows how important self-confidence is and how funny can be when dealing with what other people think. The funny way she handled the situation is also a good lesson that one’s personal style choices should not be used to judge their professionalism or worth at work.
