Brazilian actress Susana Vieira was shot down on live television Saturday night after openly flirting with a pediatrician on Globo’s late-night talk show, “Altas Horas.”
The star, known for her blunt candor, asked the guest if he was married, prompting a humorous rejection from the doctor.
The incident occurred as Susana Vieira was thanking presenter Serginho Groisman for the invitation to appear on the show. Muito obrigada por ter me chamado aqui com essas pessoas incríveis. Como eu aprendi. Esse médico me deixou encantada, o senhor é casado?
, she asked the pediatrician Daniel Becker.
Becker responded with a laugh, Sou casado. Pela segunda e última vez
. The pediatrician is a pioneer in family health in Brazil and has worked with the international organization Doctors Without Borders. He also spent years working in Brazilian favelas in the interest of public health.
During the show, Susana Vieira also presented her new acting school project, Escola Susana Vieira de Atuação. While discussing the series, which features influencers who want to become actors, she made a comment about her students. É um bando de influencers, que são verdadeiramente influencers, mas eles querem ser atores na vida real também e eu não tenho paciência para nenhum deles
, she said, drawing laughs from the audience. This comment was made while she was standing next to Rafa Kalimann, a former influencer who became famous in Brazil as a digital influencer but invested in an acting career after her success on BBB 20 and went on to act as the villain Jessica in the 2024 soap opera “Família É Tudo”.
The influencer gained prominence on social media and faced criticism at the time for her role in the soap opera. According to previous reports, she has studied theater since she was 11 years old and dedicated four years to professional acting training after leaving BBB 20.
Recently, the former “sister” starred in the documentary “Tempo para Amar”, which follows the last two months of her pregnancy and the first two months after the birth of her daughter Zuza, from her relationship with singer Nattanzinho.
Susana Vieira also shared an anecdote about a past conflict with a neighbor who was convinced she was having an affair with the woman’s husband, who was also a doctor.
She recounted the neighbor physically attacking her, causing her to drop her scripts, and her main concern at the time was retrieving the work material for her job. The confusion happened when the actress was living in the Jardim Botânico neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, near the Globo network.
Pediatrician Daniel Becker was a guest on the program to discuss topics related to childhood health, including the care and potential harm of screen time for children. He was also on the show to promote the second season of his series, Quanto Mais Cedo, Maior
, available on Globoplay, which focuses on early childhood development.
Sob o comando de Serginho Groisman, a atração recebe Belo, Grupo Pixote, Rodriguinho e Marquinhos Sensação. The actress Susana Vieira and journalist Renata Lo Prete also participate in the attraction. The Altas Horas airs this Saturday, after the soap opera Quem Ama Cuida, on TV Globo.
