In 2000, when she broke out as a singer, her more modest image was consistent with her first three albums – all called “Wanessa Camargo.” She stakes teenage love with blissful sighs (in the pop song “Eu Quero Ser O Seu Amor”) and with performances reminiscent of Mariah Carey (in the haunting “Apaixonada Por Você”).
