Ifébola Alaud, a model and actress from Sergipe, made her television debut in the soap opera 'Êta Mundo Melhor!', which aired on TV Globo on Friday, the 13th. Hailing from Nossa Senhora do Socorro, she also has a diverse career in the fashion and audiovisual industries. The character Felícia, which she portrays, continues the compelling narrative that was previously brought to life by Marina Cypriano in her youth.

In the soap opera, Felícia's backstory reveals her childhood spent in an orphanage, followed by her adoption by a same-sex couple - Lauro and Tobias. Alaud expressed her excitement about joining the series, emphasizing the honor of developing a character with such a significant history. Her admiration for her fellow cast members and the opportunity to continue telling Felícia's poignant and transformative journey resonates deeply with her.

The character of Felícia embodies crucial themes of identity and belonging, particularly in today’s context of LGBTQ+ representation in media. Alaud's role signals a step towards broader inclusivity on Brazilian television, as it brings to light the challenges and joys of a character raised in a non-traditional family setting. The continued development of Felícia’s narrative as she matures will likely engage viewers and spark discussions around family dynamics and acceptance in society.
