Brazilian Singer Ivo Pessoa Spotlighted on EPTV, Journalist Pedro Bial Shares Past Interview Mishap

Brazilian singer Ivo Pessoa appeared as a guest on the EPTV program “Mais Caminhos,” where presenters Pedro Leonardo and Cris Ikeda conducted a relaxed interview in Sousas, Campinas. Pessoa discussed his career highlights, including hits featured in popular telenovelas and his memorable period living in Japan, and previewed an upcoming album of re‑recorded successes and new songs.

Separately, veteran journalist and TV host Pedro Bial recalled his worst interview, a 1985 conversation with composer Tom Jobim, describing it as a “disaster” due to nervousness and a repeated question about the song “Água de Beber.” Bial noted the experience still embarrasses him but said it motivated his later work on a documentary series for Jobim’s centenary.

Both pieces highlight recent media moments involving prominent Brazilian entertainment figures.
