Carnival 2026: I prefer not to talk about politics now, but I will talk later, says Grazi Massafera

Actress Grazi Massafera expressed her desire to avoid political discussions while enjoying the Carnival festivities in Rio de Janeiro this year.

Grazi Massafera, a well-known actress in Brazil, made headlines as she attended the Nosso box at the Rio Carnival's first day of special group parades. With two ongoing telenovelas, she stated her intention to steer clear of political controversy during the event. Massafera's presence at the carnival prompted significant attention, highlighting the intersection of entertainment and public discourse in Brazil.

Her decision to refrain from political commentary during such a vibrant cultural festival reflects a broader trend among celebrities who often face pressure to engage in socio-political discussions. By prioritizing her participation in the carnival and focusing on her current acting roles, Massafera aims to maintain a light-hearted atmosphere amidst the tumultuous political landscape that often overshadows celebrations in Brazil.
