Next Sunday (09) TV Globo will show Ivete and the Mascarados A Special The Masked Singer Brasil. In the show, artists who were reality in seasons one and two will revive their characters in duets with the singerhost.
Of note, however, is the date the show was recorded, still in January, perhaps the longest period between production and the presentation of unprecedented entertainment content on Globo. But it’s worth remembering that this is The Masked Singer Brasil, which ranks as the channel’s latest “Golden Egg Chicken.”
Anyway, even with the late appearance, the special comes in handy to erase the bad impression Pipoca da Ivete made. Just see that the calls are already on the air with relative frequency.

wilted popcorn
Pardon the pun, Pipoca da Ivete didn’t pop. Even before the premiere, there was repeated criticism of the format, both from the audience and in the trade press.
Excessive editing, plus silly jokes many of them with no appeal to excite fans of those at home made the program comparable to the Zig Zag Arena shown late last year. The proof of this is: Globo didn’t hesitate to trash seven episodes of Fernanda Gentil’s show.
Pipoca da Ivete just didn’t have the same fate (in some editions it dropped the Ibope of the Maximum Temperature films and was surpassed, if only by minutes, by Domingo Legal in a great streak in SBT), precisely because of Ivete’s charisma and her good acceptance in the advertising market.
Ivete is a lure of good sponsors and Globo didn’t want to put her in the shame of canceling a program she has been in charge of. Anyway, it’s fair to say: unlike the Zig Zag, popcorn has redemption. Ivete needs less script and more improvisation and is also more uptodate.

the lack of time
One of the team’s biggest mistakes in season one was not addressing the “ignored” excitement William Bonner gave the singer. On August 23, as the journalist left the Estúdios Globo, the Festa interpreter in a bathrobe joined a crowd to do good.
However, due to security protocols, the owner of Brazil’s most famous good night didn’t roll down his car window. After discovering the illustrious crashes among the anonymous, Bonner recorded a video apologizing.
“I left full of energy, it was very good. Then I went to sleep and when I woke up I knew that Ivete Sangalo was in her bathrobe in the middle of this group. sorry majesty I love you!”.
It was the perfect hook to stage a meeting between Ivete and Bonner, first as an apology on TV and then to see Bonner out of his comfort zone as an interviewee.
We hope that the entire team will be able to redesign the format while making heavy use of Ivete’s charisma. Maybe even invest in live editions. Who knows, maybe there will even be good professionals in the competition…
But while Pipoca isn’t coming back, all we can do is wait for the new season of The Masked Singer. What we will see on Sunday is just an appetizer…
