Ana Maria Braga debuted this Monday (16th) on Mais Você, a new season of Jogo de Panas. The episodes were taped before the pandemic started in March 2020 and that’s why Tom Veiga (19732020) still performed as Louro José. “Kill a little nostalgia,” said the headliner.

The presenter emphasized that the painting’s release was recorded just before the health crisis. “He [Louro] was still here with us. It was he who revealed it to Anderson [participante] What was the surprise ingredient. Saudade is running with us,” she announced, calling the VT after the dispute, which this time brings together participants from Brasília in search of R$15,000.
Just a year and a half later, Ana began sharing the program with another mascot, now the son of the late Louro José, Lurito or Louro Mané, as she had chosen herself two weeks ago. The production of Mais Você has created an entire story to include the parrot in the attraction, with the right to a DNA test to prove he is the son of Louro, who left the attraction in November 2020.

Ana Maria Braga’s inseparable companion died in 2020
Tom Veiga was found dead on November 1, 2020, All Souls’ Eve, at the age of 47, the victim of a stroke (cerebral vascular accident). The hemorrhagic stroke of which he was a victim occurs when an artery or vein in the brain ruptures as a result of an aneurysm.
Almost a year and a half later, Mais Você introduced a new mascot in an open poll on the station’s website, whose name was chosen by the public as Lurito.
The new parrot appeared on Globo’s morning show on April 4th. “It is the continuation of an extraordinary talent from my friend Tom [Veiga]. There will be the weekend, rebirth and Monday [18 de abril] we baptize the blonde you [público] choose and go straight to the bank that belonged to his father,” he promised at the time.

It was then that the morning man conceived Louro Mano, who also claimed to be Louro José’s son. The “invasion” took place on April 12th. Both took the DNA test and only the first one to arrive at Globo in São Paulo was recognized as Louro José’s son.
