Juliana Franco, a singer from Pará and participant in the TV Globo reality show ‘Estrelas da Casa’, won a popular vote to perform at the Rock in Rio festival. Representing the pagode genre, she was scheduled to perform alongside other program participants and the singer Belo, who serves as a mentor. During the Rock in Rio 2026 festival, Belo performed a set of romantic pagode on the Palco Favela stage, including hits such as ‘Perfume’ and ‘Derê’. As an ambassador for the stage, Belo was joined by ten participants from ‘Estrelas da Casa’—including Álec, Bruna Bento, Cinara, Gabriel Nandes, Jefinho, Julliana Franco, Lukinhas, Tori, and Uel—for a performance of Gilberto Gil’s ‘Palco’. The set concluded with the song ‘Clareou’. On September 7, 2026, during the ‘Vida de Artista’ dynamic, a performance mishap occurred. While performing ‘Palco’, contestant Filgueira forgot a portion of the lyrics and became visibly upset. Belo approached and embraced Filgueira to offer consolation. This moment drew criticism from singer Anitta, who stated that ‘the stage is not a place for victims.’ The festival weekend was also marked by rain in the City of ~~Rock. Reports also highlighted~~ Rock and a historic performance by Elton John, who played a two-hour set for over 100,000 people. Backstage, John met with Brazilian music legend Gilberto Gil, describing him as ‘a legend and a brilliant man’ and a ‘wonderful man’. Gilberto Gil, a long-time festival figure, hinted that his performance might have been one of his last at the event. Additionally, Icelandic artist Laufey performed on the Sunset Stage, noted for its sophistication even as crowds moved toward Elton John’s set.
