Betty Faria talks about her career and conflict with Manoel Carlos on Conversa.
The actress shares details about her call to 'Baila Comigo' author and discusses her legacy.
On the September 8th edition, the Conversa com Bial program hosted Betty Faria and Tony Ramos to revisit their careers and discuss significant television moments. The interview gained prominence by revealing a call Betty made to Manoel Carlos during the soap opera Baila Comigo and the consequences of that action.
The Interview on Conversa com Bial
Pedro Bial led the conversation with the two actors, covering their careers, television memories, family, work, and the challenges of continuing to act over the years. The participation of Valentina Daniel, Betty's granddaughter and Daniel Filho's daughter, was also highlighted.
The Episode of the Call to Manoel Carlos
Betty recounted that, dissatisfied with her character Joana in Baila Comigo (1981), she called author Manoel Carlos to complain about the lack of lines. She described the action as “a great lesson” and stated that she never did it again, as “calling an author became a taboo in my life.” The show noted that after the call, Manoel Carlos never cast her in his soap operas again.
Reflections on Social Media and Work
The actress commented on her relationship with social media, saying that although she has participated in online discussions, today she prefers to maintain her privacy. Tony Ramos explained that he is not against the platforms but sees them as a different space from theater, which allows direct contact with the audience.
Valentina Daniel's Participation
Valentina, Betty's granddaughter, spoke about choosing to follow the profession and the influence of her grandparents on her development. Betty emphasized that she wants her granddaughter to develop her own identity as an actress, stating: “I don't want her to be like me. I want her to be herself.”
Recent Legacy and Tributes
In 2024, Betty received a star on the Calçada da Fama (Walk of Fame) at Globo Studios and was honored on the network's Tributo program. Despite being away from soap operas since Volta por Cima (2024), the interview once again brought her story and impact on Brazilian TV to light.
