"He created this show"

Celso Bortioli was amused by Naldo Bini's reputation for lying. This Sunday (30), the presenter welcomed the singer live on the Domingo Legal stage and provoked him to tell a joke. He said sarcastically: “The person who invented this program is Naldo.”

The artist participated in the Passa ou Repassa games with his wife, Elaine Cardoso, the Strawberry Shortcake woman. Right at the beginning of the attraction, he was encouraged to come up with a story about the creation of the program.

“Tell the story that Silvio Santos asked you to create this program,” Bortioli teased. Then Naldo joined in the fun. He added: “Do you know this? Silvio Santos called me and said: Feel free to create this name, time, day.”

“Then I created this program… Thank you Naldo, you are part of my success, thank you very much,” the broadcaster said.

Portiolli took the opportunity to celebrate more screen time. After Ileana leaves SBT, he will be on air for seven hours. “I'll tell you something that sounds like a lie, but it's true: I'll be staying for seven hours on Sunday,” the caller celebrated.

“He was the one who invented it, and he thought he had too little workload,” Moranguinho replied, referring to her husband. “Celso is the best broadcaster in Brazil,” I said. I couldn't be here for just two or three hours on air, it has to be seven hours.” I gave this idea to Junior, who is our manager. I said: “If Ileana's not there, Celso will take over until the evening,” I said jokingly. Naldo said jokingly.

Naldo has become a meme

In 2023, videos with amazing stories told by Naldo went viral, challenging the singer's honesty. He even decided to release a song on April 1, April Fool's Day.

“I made lemonade out of lemons and I laugh at all this. I will launch Pega na Mentira on April 1, with a free show in Parque Madureira, in Rio. That's right!” he announced in an interview with Extra newspaper at the time.

Among the stories told by Naldo that became a joke on social media are his meeting with Chris Brown, his visit to the factory of the sports brand Nike and even Gisele Bündchen's trip to Sabukai – the singer said he convinced the top model to accept the invitation to a box in the Sambadrome.

Ellen Cardoso's husband's exploits have earned him a reputation as a liar on social media, but he said it's not the mockery that bothers him. “I get annoyed when people try to portray my facts and accomplishments as lies,” he explained.

“For me, getting close to the idols I dreamed of, coming from the slums, recording with them, becoming friends, being together, like it was with Will.” [Smith, que aparece em um vídeo cantando ao lado de Naldo em Ipanema]Imagine that… When I saw that the whole of Brazil was making memes, even abroad, I felt relaxed, otherwise I would have gone crazy.”

From this movement came the idea of turning comments into music. But he is consistent in saying that he does not lie: “I never lie. My stories seem like lies, but they are not. And look, I still have a lot to tell… What do I do? It is my story.” Life God points to the star that should shine.”
