Ticiane Pinheiro Revives the 'Quadradinho de Oito' on Domingão

Ticiane Pinheiro reappeared on the Dança dos Famosos segment this Sunday (27) by recreating the famous "quadradinho de oito" during her funk choreography. The dance move, which had gone viral in 2013, was performed live and quickly caught viewers' attention.

What happened during the performance

The host performed the move in the middle of the choreography, describing the style by saying "funk is really cool" at the end of the performance. Despite her boldness, the technical judges did not award enough points, and Ticiane finished in last place, with no couples eliminated that week.

How the move became a trademark

The "quadradinho de oito" achieved national meme status in 2013, when Ticiane performed it live on Record TV following a challenge from Ana Hickmann. Ever since, the moment has lived on in fans' memories and has been referenced during other appearances by the host, such as on the Lip Sync Battle in March.

Family reaction and social media support

Ticiane's mother gathered the family to watch the performance and posted a message of support for her daughter. On the same day, Helô Pinheiro, the host's mother, rallied fans on social media, saying, "Go rock it, my girl!".

Public reaction

Comments ranged from praise for the entertainer's courage to criticism of the dance quality. Some praised her attitude and bravery in reviving the move, while others pointed out a lack of coordination and questioned tall women's dance performances.

Overall performance on the show

In addition to Ticiane, the episode featured Breno Ferreira, Diego Martins, Mell Muzzillo, Bruna Griphao, Léo Foguete, and Rita Guedes. Diego Martins took first place, while Ticiane finished last, hurt primarily by the scores from the technical judges.
