Speaking to Yasmin Brunet and Fernanda on the balcony of BBB 24, Vanessa Lopes explained that George Orwell's book “1984” was inspired by the reality show.

In fact, the name “Big Brother” from the format created by Endemol is inspired by a character from the British author's work published in 1949.

“You read the same book as me, nineteen hundred and I don't know what,” commented the Tiktoker Fernanda.

“Li,” the nurse confirmed.

“It’s inspired by this program. Big Brother. The eye that sees everything,” Vanessa said.

The dialogue ended on the social media of filmmaker Kleber Mendonça Filho. “I thought it was cute,” wrote the director of “Bacurau.”

Following the scene, searches for George Orwell's title peaked in the early hours of Wednesday (17) morning.

It is the second time a book has been featured on the reality show and searches for the work are increasing. Wanessa Camargo spoke about the book “The Society of the Spectacle” by Frenchman Guy Debord. In the end, the singer convinced viewers to buy the work.
