Fourth day of Carnival in Salvador pays tribute to Preta, Brown defending Claudia Leitte, and farewell to Carla Perez

The fourth day of Carnival in Salvador featured a tribute to Preta, Carlinhos Brown defending Claudia Leitte from criticisms, and a farewell performance by Carla Perez.

The fourth day of Carnival in Salvador was filled with significant moments, such as the tribute to the renowned artist Preta. Carlinhos Brown took a stand to defend Claudia Leitte against various criticisms while she paraded with the 'Largadinho' block in the lively Dodô circuit. Additionally, Daniela Mercury responded to a judicial decision affecting her longstanding 'Crocodilo' block, which was supposed to be the first to parade at the Barra circuit but was suspended from that position recently.

Carla Perez, a beloved figure in Salvador's Carnival scene, marked a poignant moment as she performed for the last time with her 'Pipoca Doce' trio, affiliated with the 'Algodão Doce' block. The performance took place in the Osmar circuit, where the theme was 'Sonho de Criança' (Child's Dream). Her initial appearance on Saturday included a heartfelt homage to the iconic children's character Xuxa Meneghel, showcasing a nostalgic costume reminiscent of the 'paquitas' who were beloved figures in 90s Brazilian television.

The Carnaval festivities in Salvador reflect not only entertainment but also the deep-rooted cultural bonds within the community, blending music, tradition, and personal narratives. These events provide a platform for artists to express their emotions, messages, and farewells, further solidifying Carnival's importance as a cultural and social celebration in Brazil.
