- Angélica is a Brazilian TV hostess, singer and actress. Angélica's career began at 4, when she won a contest to choose Brazil's most beautiful child at a popular variety show hosted by Chacrinha. At 13, she became famous for replacing Xuxa as the host of the kids show "Clube da Criança". Her popularity exploded when her hit single Vou de Táxi topped the Brazilian charts. Vou de Táxi has since become a classic, and is remember by most of the Brazilian population, even though more than 20 years have lapsed since its release. Likewise, in 1991, her new album named "Angelica" increased her popularity with the song "Algodão Doce e Guaraná". She also starred on the popular mini-series O Guarani. Angélica has sold millions of discs, 14 albums was released between 1988 to 2001, over 13 millions of copies. In 1993, she joined the second most popular channel in Brazil, SBT presenting the kids variety show "Casa da Angélica" (Angélica's House), which was a big hit. More popular than ever she also hosted the popular teen game show "Passa ou Repassa" and "TV Animal". In 1996 she signed a 7-figure contract with media-giant Rede Globo to host her own show, Angel Mix, every weekday morning, which was followed by "Caça Talentos" (Talent Hunter), a soap opera starring her. The ratings were robust, making Angélica even more famous than Xuxa; this was the first time any TV female host had surpassed her in popularity. Sales of her merchandising and CDs were also huge. But soon, after the initial boom, the ratings began to decline and she changed the format of the show several times. While in 1996 Angélica was unbeatable among kids, in 1997 she lost popularity to Chiquititas (that year, Angelica's album sold 300,000 copies vs. 800,000 copies by the Chiquititas cast), but she was still very popular until 1999. In 1998, she had 250 products linked to her name and made more money than Xuxa due to licensing (the Angélica shoes by Grendene sold over 1 million pairs in 5 months; in the same period her cereal sold over 7 million boxes and her nailpolish sold 4 million). The success of her products was even more remarkable because unlike Eliana (3rd on the list) and Gugu Liberato (4th), she didn't promote her product-line during her show. Finally, she decided to end her career as a child show host and, with only three months left for her contract with Globo to expire, she was chosen as the host for "Video Game", a five minute segment on celebrity news show "Vídeo Show". "Video Game" was a game-show whereby two celebrities would compete head-on throughout the entire week. The segment caused "Video Show's" ratings to double, and what was supposed to be a 2001 summer-only, 5 minute segment, became a 20 minute block (half of the show); it is still aired and has managed to keep up its impressive ratings. Due to the success of "Vídeo Show", Angelica's popularity heightened again, leading to her being in a lot of advertising campaigns and appearing on magazine covers. She also hosted the first two seasons of Fama, Brazilian version of Operacion Triunfo. 2003 saw her relationship with fellow host Luciano Huck become the biggest celebrity news of the year (they had already dated before) and after their marriage, they were the country's favourite couple, starring in numerous advertising campaigns. They had a son, Joaquim, in 2005. Since her well-received return to TV hosting Vídeo Show, Rede Globo began planning projects for her, but her own show finally started in April 2006. "Estrelas" (Stars) is a show where Angélica interviews stars and shows their intimacy (house, hobbies, etc). The show is #1 in its time-slot and airS every Saturday before Caldeirão do Huck, her husband's show.
