In the night of this Friday (13th), the former participant of the ‘glass house’ from Big Bother Brasil 23, Giovanna Leão, took to her social networks to publish an official note about the controversies that prevented her from participating in the global reality show. “We need to talk,” she announced.

“I had little time to absorb the information, but since my way of thinking has changed over many years, it is not difficult for me to open up to you and show you who I am today. It is a long text but necessary to clarify very serious matters! With all sincerity and as often as necessary I would like to ask FOR FORGIVENESS for my completely wrong lines, my then so wrong thinking compared to the current experience and the class consciousness I have today because at that time I was surrounded only by the whiteness and his privileges. But that doesn’t justify what I did. Nothing justifies! I know I made a mistake but I want you to give me an opportunity to see that I’m not the same Giovanna I was years ago,” the redhead began.
“To the group I belonged to and never hid that I joined (because there’s no reason to lie to you or pretend anything), I hope you understand that 1. it’s been MANY years, 2 .the nomenclature used was general and among all people who were in the group and outside (and in other social networks), 3. it was one of the best known groups for promoting life, and 4. I have the place ONLY for advertising Used when I played online, as well as in other different and varied groups!
“Regarding the girl’s involvement (whose name I will keep out of respect for her as I was aware that she was also being assaulted and this must stop!) I would like to point out that I apologized immediately after the incident because even though I was immature at that moment and without much understanding of the fear, I knew how shaken she was. We fought badly, but my speech was disproportionate. I understand that she didn’t accept my apology back then and I apologize again !!” Leão explained.
“Forgiveness, forgiveness to everyone I’ve offended, triggered, hurt, saddened, upset.
In conclusion, I repeat that, just as I have not reproduced this error in recent years, I am committed to being always more receptive and attentive to questions on this subject so that it never happens again, always looking for development and learning. We’re sorry. I’m sorry,” he asked.
“I am open to criticism, continue to learn and exchange ideas. Always understand more and accept everything I deserve. Thank you for all the love you gave me despite everything. Many Thanks. The BBB dream is over, but life goes on. Must go further. With affection and LOTS of respect, Giovanna,” the redhead concluded.
Understand what happened to Giovanna
While I was at the muchdiscussed ‘Casa de Vidro’ to run for a spot in the cast Big Brother Brazil 23, many netizens have consulted several old posts by Giovanna Leão on their Twitter profile. With the comments, Aruiva was criticized and accused of racism because she even used the term “monkey” at times.
However, when questioned by some visitors of the “Casa de Vidro”, Giovanna Leão explained that the words do not refer to racist terms, but to slang used in the game “League Of Legends” when she was live on the internet .
