As Anitta continues to conquer, FEMAIL went ahead and recapped her impressive journey from start to finish. From how she soared out of poverty to achieve stardom to how she managed to get her hand on the pulse of the music industry, here's everything you need to know about the 30-year-old singer. Anitta grew up in poverty and was told by her parents that she would likely never make it as a star - but her life took a cruel twist Anitta was born as Larissa de Macedo Machado on March 30, 1993, and she grew up in a neighborhood just outside of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil called Honorio Gurgel The musician (seen with her mom) told Harper's Bazaar that while she always dreamed of being a star, lower her parents didn't think she'd make it because of their lack of funds Anitta was born as Larissa de Macedo Machado on March 30, 1993, and she grew up in a neighborhood just outside of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil called Honorio Gurgel. While chatting with Harper's Bazaar earlier this month, the musician admitted that her family had very little money during her childhood - and that while she always dreamed of being a star, her parents didn't think she stood a chance of making it because of their lack of funds. 'People would say [the town I grew up in] was the ghetto, it's like the hood,' she explained. 'I used to say, "When I'm old, I'm going to get rich. We're going to have a pool. We're all going to be at the pool." 'Everyone was like, OK. They didn't want to disappoint me, but they knew that was not even close to being real… But I was so sure. I could tell.' She also told the Times: 'Growing up, my father would say, "We're poor, you can't study the arts."' Her love of performing began at age seven after her maternal grandparents convinced her mom to put her in the local choir. But it was the horrific sexual assault that she endured as a teen that truly pushed her to want to become a star.

She's seen as a kid 'I transformed what happened then into something that helped me come out on top, in a better place' she said. 'For all of you asking yourselves how Anitta was born, that's how. She was born out of my desire and need to be a brave woman. 'One who no one could ever harm, who no one could ever bring to tears, whose feelings no one could ever hurt, who could find a way out of any situation … that's how I created that character. 'When I created my character, Anitta, I just wanted this woman that nobody could f*** with. 'Because in the moment, you still blame yourself, you think that if you behaved differently, that wouldn't happen to you.' The singer added to the Times that her stage name was inspired by a character in the 2001 TV show Presença de Anita, who she described as 'romantic, sensual, intelligent and crazy all at once.' Determined to leave her poverty-stricken town and prove everyone wrong, Anitta hired tutors and speech therapists to teach her English Breaking into the industry was not easy for Anitta - but the fiercely determined teen did everything in her power to make her dreams come true.

All the while, she was taking English lessons, and enlisted a speech therapist to help her minimize her accent so that she'd be taken more seriously by music executives in the US. 'I realized that if I spoke slower in meetings or with an accent, people would respect me less,' she told the Times. And her hard work paid off. She also started recording videos of herself performing and putting them on YouTube, and when esteemed producer Renato Azevedo came across some of them, he asked her to record some demos with him. Those demos soon caught the attention of independent label Furacão 2000, who signed her in 2010 and helped her release her first single, Eu Vou Ficar. She released a few more songs with Furacao 2000, before ultimately landing a record deal with Warner Music Group Brazil in 2013.

While speaking to magazine last year, the artist admitted that she struggled to be taken seriously for her work early on in her career, especially due to the sexual nature of some of her songs and videos. But she explained that her 'honesty' and 'authenticity' are what helped her make it big in the end. 'When I started out, I encountered quite a lot of problems with respect to the way people looked at me, because I dressed very sexily,' she explained. She has now released five studio albums in total and has continued to dominate the charts in Brazil - and all around the world. She's seen last year 'Journalists and members of the public were sometimes very judgmental... Brazil is a very conservative country, even if this is a totally hypocritical attitude. 'Many Brazilians hide what they really do in order to project a virtuous image. That can turn out to be very dangerous: is it better to tell the truth and risk upsetting a few people or to live a life of lies and disappoint absolutely everyone the day you're unmasked? 'By insisting on honesty, by remaining authentic, I've gained credibility in Brazil.' She has now released five studio albums in total and has continued to dominate the charts in Brazil - and all around the world.

She also made history with her latest album, Versions of Me, which earned the highest debut by a Brazilian artist on iTunes, Apple Music, and Spotify in the US.

'When we are born into the type of reality that I was in my country, we don't get the motivation to understand politics,' she told Harper's Bazaar. The musician is also heavily involved in politics. Back in 2018, she faced backlash online for not speaking out about the controversial election of far-right Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro She then made it her goal to learn about political issues. She said: 'When we are born into the type of reality that I was, we don't get the motivation to understand politics' 'We vote not knowing s*** about it, not knowing whatever the f*** we are doing. And that's what [politicians] want, because then it's easier to play with us.' She also told the Times: 'I didn't understand anything. I didn't know what a congressman does or what a councilman does. I'm not ashamed to say it because most Brazilians don't.' Since then, she has spoken out against Jair on numerous occasions. And during the country's 2022 election, she heavily supported candidate Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who ultimately won. 'When you have a lot of visibility, people listen to you. To me it seemed important to use my fame to start a discussion on key subjects,' she told Numero at the time. 'If I see that my country is behaving badly, which is the case right now with our president, the least I can do is to get involved in the debate.' While Anitta has been very honest about her journey, there is one thing that she was not open about at first - her sexuality. The star told the Times she has been bisexual as long as she could remember, but it took paparazzi catching her locking lips with a woman for her to come out to the world. Anitta is openly bisexual and considers herself a 'feminist.' She said: 'I believe feminism is a [matter] being able to decide who you want to be, regardless of what others think' As for what's next for the singer, she's said she doesn't like to focus too much on the future. 'I've accomplished so much more than I ever thought I would,' she gushed Anitta said that while she spent years hiding her sexuality from her fans, the incident inspired her to be more open about it. 'It was complicated because it was all very taboo at the time,' she recalled to the Times. 'But my mom has known that I kiss girls since I was 13, why should I care what other people think?' Anitta told Numero that she considers herself a 'feminist.' She explained: 'I believe feminism is a question of freedom, of being able to decide who you want to be, regardless of what others think. 'Women are still far too often told what to do, how they should behave and what they should or shouldn't say. 'We should be able to do what we like without harm or prejudice. If I like a garment then I'll wear it. If I want to have plastic surgery then I'll do it.' As for what's next for the singer, she's said she doesn't like to focus too much on the future. 'I'm not going to overthink things. I know what I want to do: if things work out, great,' she concluded to the Times. 'If they don't, that's also great. 'I've accomplished so much more than I ever thought I would. If I fell asleep now and woke up at 40, I'd still feel like I'd done what I set out to do.' |
