Joana Prado, a former can, again commented on her trajectory of conversion to evangelism and criticism of Carnival in a live broadcast on Instagram, made while she was clothes at her home in the United States. The former model shared reflections on her life change and encouraged followers to preach the gospel. “Whenever you can, preach God’s Word. Because we know that the Gospel is God’s power for salvation. And it was through this gospel that I was saved that I was rescued, ”he said.

Joana remembered how her lifestyle changed radically since conversion, which occurred under the influence of her husband, former fighter Vitor Belfort. “I was the unlikely of the unlikely. I went to all the parties, loved to drink, but I was never the same as a lot of girl who kissed several. I always enjoyed drinking a lot, but it was slavery, because you get addicted to the desires of the flesh. One day I met the god that Vitor introduced me to, and I was free, ”he said.
The previous week, Joana had generated controversy by criticizing Carnival in a video alongside Vitor. She stated that the party promotes the “exposure of the body”, as well as elements linked to “cults to the orishas” and “summoning of demons.” Vitor added: “Carnival celebrates meat desires, it greatly involves the culture of macumba, a spiritist culture”. The speech caused negative reactions in social networks, being seen as intolerant by netizens. “Is it a place of Macumba? Invocation of orishas and demons ??? Guys, how much intolerance, ”wrote a user.
Joana, who paraded in Sapucaí in 2000 as a joint of the willow, said she regret the period as a witch. Since its conversion 15 years ago, it prioritizes faith and family values. “It is not enough to become another Christian. It is necessary to be a disciple of Jesus, ”he said. In the caption of the video, he stressed, “Carnival may seem like ‘just a party’, but does it be for someone who was bought by the blood of Christ?”
