Danilo Gentili, 43, is being sued by Father Julio Lancellotti, 73, who is seeking compensation of R$48,400 for moral damages. The information was originally released by Em Off journalist Fábia Oliveira and confirmed by syringes🇧🇷
What will the judiciary decide?
- The priest claimed that the presenter’s intention to insult and attack him “would be clear”.
- The lawsuit seeks the removal of Gentili’s post with a daily fine of R$5,000.
- Lancellotti also demands that Gentili be banned from posting content that alludes to the priest’s sexuality.
- The process runs in judicial secrecy.
- syringes contacted the moderator’s defense, who informed him that he was awaiting the indictment of Gentili to position himself.
The moderator attacked the priest with a homophobic comment in December after Lancellotti criticized Brazil national team players and former athlete Ronaldo for wearing BRL 9,000 worth of 24k goldplated meat to a restaurant in Qatar during the World Cup.
The scene is shocking and questioning in the context of what is being experienced not only in Qatar but around the world and here in Brazil.

“I prefer sausage”🇧🇷 Repeating Lancellotti’s post, Danilo Gentili said that the priest “regrets” not having been in the restaurant with the athletes because he “prefers sausages”. However, in another post, Gentili would have referred to Lancelotti as “Father Linguiça”.
