Xuxa farewell tour draws crowds, fuels online clash

Overview

Xuxa Meneghel’s farewell stadium tour, “O Último Voo da Nave,” continues to draw significant attention through massive attendance and intense cultural debate. The tour’s high-tech production celebrates her four-decade career, though it has been marked by a public dispute with presenter Mara Maravilha regarding Xuxa’s stage costumes and physical appearance. Xuxa has defended her autonomy, stating, “Respect my history and my maturity, which only comes with age,” and attributing the backlash to sexism and ageism.

This tension has expanded into broader media disputes. Presenter Cariúcha recently defended Meneghel against Maravilha’s criticisms, noting that Meneghel continues to perform to large stadium crowds. Cariúcha reported that Maravilha’s team attempted to contact her daughter to question her comments on the program ‘SuperPop’.

Additionally, a conflict has emerged with carnival designer Cahê Rodrigues. Following his public suggestion that Xuxa include a tribute to the samba schools that have honored her during her upcoming Maracanã performance, Meneghel criticized the demand as “deselegante” (inelegant) and “unprofessional.” She noted that Rodrigues had never contacted her directly and questioned why she must constantly mention every tribute received during her 43-year career. Rodrigues had previously suggested in a podcast that Meneghel lived in a “crystal bubble” and lacked recognition for past tributes.

Amidst the tour, Xuxa’s potential return to TV Globo is generating interest from the advertising market, with executives evaluating a possible new program for 2027. The tour continues to expand, with a fourth São Paulo date announced for February 2027. Other activities include a vaccination awareness campaign and her partner Junno Andrade joining the 2026 season of “Dança dos Famosos.”

  • "The stage includes an inflatable spaceship built by Dutch company Mister Dan, about 6 m high, 8 m diameter and weighing roughly 400 kg."

    vs

    "The production featured a nave 18 m tall and 50 m wide that flew over the audience."
