Pop Culture Q&A

First album you bought?
Zooropa, U2

First concert you attended?
I saw Madonna perform in Brazil in 1998 and I loved it when she sang Like A Virgin. That's one of my favorite songs. I went to the concert with a about four or five girls when I was real young.

Rock star that you know?
None. I'm not that popular.

Rock star you want to know?
I love Bono from U2. He came out to Brazil during the Carnival and I got a chance to see him. I love the way he does so many good things for people in the world. He has made such great music and he only gets better. I saw him in concert in Sao Paulo a year ago and I got so emotional when I saw him.

Gnarls Barkley is...
Not sure.

Britney Spears is...
Being pressured too much by the press. They are being really hard with her and the press should give her a break and let her be alone. I hope she enjoys her babies more. She needs that. She just needs to relax and take a break.

K-Fed is....
Nothing. I have no feelings about him.

When I sing karaoke...
I have fun. I like to sing good and emotional music. My favorite song to sing is the Girl from Ipanema and I like to sing it in English and Portuguese.

Song that reminds you of your first kiss?
How Deep Is Your Love, The Bee Gees. It is such a beautiful song and I sing it all the time. It's very popular in Brazil.

Song that makes you cry?
I'll Be Right Here Waiting For You, Bryan Adams. Every time I hear that song I think of my dad who loved this song and passed away. It always reminds me of my father.

What you wanted to be at age 10?
I always wanted to be a model. I was born to be a model. I was being photographed for magazine covers when I was in the womb.

Athlete that you want to know?
Andre Agassi. He's hot and sexy and he has a lot of charm and charisma on the court.

I'll spend Valentine's Day...
I will be at the SI Swimsuit Party but if I wasn't, I would be having a nice, romantic dinner at an amazing restaurant with some red wine with my boyfriend. And later we would be doing something else that I can't tell you.

What attracts you to a man...
When he's a gentleman and when he understands my job. He has to be very traditional and open the door for me. It might sound stupid but I love it.
