I began my acting journey in 1996 with my debut in “Menina do Mar.” I was only six at the time, but it really got me excited about performing on stage and made me sure that’s what I wanted to do with my life. The big breakthrough in my career came later, in 2006, with the popular TV show “Morangos com Açúcar.” It was a milestone in my life. I left my safe haven, my mother, my home, my friends—everything to pursue my dream. Initially, it was very tough, swapping Porto for Lisbon. I felt out of place, unprotected, but at the same time, I felt a tremendous strength to face the change positively, thinking that I was investing in a future where I could do what I really love: acting.
Now, transitioning from one of the “Morangos” girls to a certified femme fatale on Playboy’s cover? Talk about a glow-up! It was like looking at those photos and thinking, “Whoa, I want to meet that woman!” Now, speaking seriously, my relationship with Playboy, both as a reader and now as a featured model, reflects my appreciation for artistry and empowerment. Being selected as the Christmas cover was an honor, requiring mental preparation and trust in the artistic process. I used to do everything with my twin sister, and now stepping out of her shadow for the Playboy shoot was both nerve-wracking and liberating. She’s my rock, a significant part of my life. However, it’s time for us to pursue our professional paths separately and each follow our own desires.
If I had to choose one part of my body as the most irresistible, it would be a tough call. The lips, the eyes, the chest, the butt—it’s hard to choose because I like my appearance in the mirror; I am satisfied with what God gave me. As for what I find irresistible in a man, it’s not just about physical characteristics. Sure, lashes or a charming smile catch my eye, but above all, I’m drawn to a man who takes care of himself. Someone who pays attention to his appearance and has a refined sense of humor. There’s something special about waking up with a smile and falling asleep with one.
