Just voted three times! Thanks for the heads up, I can't stand that guy.

Eu sou americano. Moro em NYC. Eu votei 10 vezes para eliminar Marcelo Homophobe!!!

Why do the producers not kick him out if he's saying such bigoted, hateful statements? I don't watch the U.K version but I know if anything offensive is said they're kicked out before they can even pack their bags. Though, over the past 10 years of the U.K version quite a few gay contestants have won, even a bat shit crazy Portuguese tranny won a few years ago. The producers should just kick this dude out & the audience who favours him should wake the f*ck up! As for his aids comments, well, I'm from South Africa so maybe he should take a little trip there or to any African country & then his absurd opinions would be shattered.

PLEASE vote for Dourado to be eliminated from Big Brother Brazil.

Eliminem esse homem!!!!

I just voted. His behavior and overall stupidity needs to be obliterated. It sickens me. I am a stay-at-home mom from the Midwest and I think more people need to stand up to this idiotic notion that not being gay makes makes it not your problem. I am going to go vote again.

I've been voting all day long. I have voted about 500 hundred times, and it is still not enough. A homossexual said to a lesbian site he was beaten by his homophobe fans yesterday. Disgusting.

any votes will be welcome, help us, because this man, and the horrible editing the network has beeen making have created an army of young man and women, who think his the coolest thing since chuck norris (and chuck norrris was playing a part) - he's not only a homophobe but a sexist misoginistic violent men, who said in more than one occasion he would send the woman who had the guts to stand up to him to the hospital, if there were no cameras around.

I love the initiative, thanks for the heads up. I think I voted 10 times already, lol.

No, he isn't an homophobe guy. He was talking about sex with a lesbian. If he was an homophobe guy he wouldn't even look in her eyes. I'm from brazil and i watch bbb every day. It's easy to see that he's a good guy. He talks with a younger gay guy, he's his friend.
His only problem is that he don't accept be envolved with gay fun. Look, he's a fight teacher. He can lost his job if people starts to say that he's gay. You have to understand this.
Here im Brazil, there are many gays or lesbian who likes him. Although this little problem, it doesnt make him an homophobe, and he is the best guy in the house. Don't make gossip, don't scream to anybody. Isn't fake.

Please, belive me, he's a good guy, not an homophobe guy.

PLEASE vote for Dourado to be eliminated from Big Brother Brazil.PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE

Saffa in London
EXACTLy the producers are defending him, they hid the videos where he said the most violent things, taking whoever posted on youtube out and banned (dont ask me how). til it leaked on an important news portal and today they hat to put it on the edition, but still very unilateral
Unfurtunetely Globo TV has an enormous power, they rule an enormous part of brazillian media, and there are no laws against homphobia in brazil (though there are laws protecting women against violence and nothing has been done). The producers are set to keep him on, because he is popular and makes good audience. Thats why homossexual and women rights movements have to take a stand. The producers protect thenselves by saying : "any opinions expressed by the participants are not our responsability"
sad really
Anna your post made me very happy, congratulations!

Voted several times. Hope he's toast!

I really like when you take the time to bring this kind of issues on your blog. I was at the Fashion Week last Wednesday to see Herchcovitch show and despite my big love for fashion I've meet so many superficial people that made me sick...let's talk about beauty, lets talk about fashion, this and that but this is one of the best things I've seen on your blog.
Despite the fact that Dourado is truly a good guy it does bother me that somebody who makes this kind of statement has been prized by the public affection. We, Brazilians know how crazy and contradictory our society is but there is no more place for this kind of people to be in the spot light.
I've voted already 3 times and will try to vote over and over during the course of the day.
It's dangerous to empower people who misleads the mass about serious topics. Although Brazil is the gayest country in Latin America, Mexico already surpassed us whe it comes to gay rights.

Also, I wanted to ask your opinion about Norma Benguel's character on that comedy show in Brazil..I was there last November and watched once and could not believe what I was listening to...why the gay rights in Brazil has not done anything to get rid of such "dialogues" on TV? She plays a lesbian who is several times bad mouthed by the entire cast...they called her names all the time and everybody keeps laughing at it. It was really sad to witness an actress who played key rules in the feminist moviment in Brazil during the 60s and 70's and todays is portraying something like that. I know she is an actress and needs to survive but it's hard to see her character being called "sapatao" over and over. And there are 2 well known gay actors in the cast...I don't get it!

Sorry for making my post so big...you don't need to post all...I am ok with that.
Tks!

Angélica é fofoqueira e intrigueira, agora o Brasil vai eliminar ela e isso torna o Brasil homofóbico? WHAT!?

Divulguem! #foradourado

To tell you the truth I don´t even know what this dourado guy is doing in the house in the first place. He had already had his chance seven years ago and was evicted from the house with one of the highest percentages of all editions as I recall.
Now all of the sudden he goes from black sheep to the favorite contestant to win this edition. What is going on??? I can´t stand him. He´s a disgusting person that should have already been out of the house on the fist week.
If he stays I shall boycott BBB forever.

Yes he is HOMOFOBIC! I watch the Big Brother all days and DOURADO is machist and intolerant! Out Dourado, vote, site to the site to out he is www.globo.com/bbb. VOTE IN DOURADO TO HE OUT!! HE LEAVE! The fans had threatened him gay death in Brazil

His fans said they would come here to comment on this site for him to protect him, do not allow it!...

Out DOURADO! He's HOMOFOBIC and INTOLERANT MAN! Is machist and agressive, hate Gays and Lesbians. His fans said they would come here to comment on this site for him to protect him, do not allow it!. Site for VOTE www.globo.com/bbb just click on his picture, enter the confirmation code and press VOTAR. Thank you brothers!

It is very manipulative view videos edited by someone who does not like him, who can speak ill of Dourado is the only one that follows all the episodes of the program and follows the plot, do not disagree with anything he does speak, I fully agree.

The following quote remains true no matter what the cause. How can some of you say he's a nice guy? I don't get it. He's an idiot you might want to go have a beer with? If you don't get what vitriol he is spraying out there, then you are sadly mistaken.

History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people. -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

@ Lucia

Doesn't Brazil have a 'freedom of information act' where if requested [due to religious/racial/homophobic statements etc..] the network must hand over all recordings? Also, doesn't Brazil have an independent regulator for Brazilian communication industries [tv/radio/print media] where people can put their complaints forward & the regulator must investigate?

PLEASE vote for Dourado to be eliminated from Big Brother Brazil.PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE

O Participante não é homofobico pois o melhor amigo dele na casa é gay, fatos distorcidos estão prejudicando a imagem dele no jogo! A menina gay é falsa e merece ser eliminada independente de sua opção sexual!

The Participant is not homophobic because his best friend's house is gay, distorted facts are harming the image of him in the game! The girl gay is false and deserves to be eliminated regardless of their sexual orientation!

Gente, o Dourado NÃO é homofóbico! Ele simplesmente se voltou contra o Dicesar porque ele foi falso e disse que tinha jogado voto pro DOurado e NÃO foi isso que aconteceu. Eles dizem que ele é homofóbico, mas NUNCA falam o porquê. Tem tres gays na casa: Angélica, Serginho e Dicesar. Marcelo Dourado era amigo de Angélica, mas ela do nada disse pra ele que ele mudou sem ele ter mudado, ela não teve argumentos para falar nada, e eles discutiram. Depois ela foi COMBINAR VOTOS com os outros pra mandar o Dourado. ISSO É UM ABSURDO! Aí Dourado se chateou porque ela foi falsa com ele! E disse que SE ELA FOSSE UM HOMEM, aí sim ele quebrava os dedos dela PORQUE ELE DISSE QUE NÃO BATE EM MULHER! E Serginho (que é gay também) disse que apoia o Dourado e quer que a Angélica saia! Podem ver isso no próprio site de globo.com/bbb no vídeo chamado "Dourado elogia força de vontade de Sergio" e vocês vão ver que tem um gay que apoia Dourado. Dourado NUNCA faltou com respeito os gays da casa. EU só não quero que vocês façam injustiça, porque Dourado votou porque ele FOI TRAÍDO em quem ele achava que era amido dele! E se vocês favorecem os homossexuais da casa só porque são homossecuais e não têm caráter, vocês vão estar apoiando este tipo de atitude! Primeiro vem o caráter e depois a sexualidade! Vocês mesmo defendem isso tanto! Abraço.

Marcelo Dourado NÃO É HOMOFÓBICO, DEIXANDO BEM CLARO. É invenção de torcidas para levarem os participantes em que estão torcendo ao prêmio com essa desculpa. Esse é o paredão mais difícil para Angélica pois ela age de maneira errada o jogo todo. Sendo que Marcelo Dourado está mais forte com o publico. NÃO COMETAM UMA INJUSTIÇA ! MARCELO DOURADO É UM RESPEITADOR, COM AMIGOS GAYS DENTRO DA CASA !
------------------------------------------------------
Marcelo Dourado NOT HOMOPHOBIC, makes clear. The invention of twisted to bring the participants are hoping that the prize with that excuse. This is the wall more difficult for Angelica because she works the wrong way the whole game. Since Marcelo Dourado is stronger with the public. Not committing an injustice! MARCELO GOLDEN is a respectful, GAYS WITH FRIENDS IN THE HOUSE!

he isn't Homophobe!! This is a huge lie!U guys know very well how competition can be unfare! Brazil would never let a homophobe win the show! A gay once won, but now its not the same! Tha gay people of this season are impossible!! U guys cant judge him based only in one side of the story! If he is favorite, that must have a reason, dont u think?

QUE ABSURDO! ESTÁ TUDO EDITADO, ESSE VÍDEO NÃO MOSTRA A COVERSA TODA!
Ele não tem nada de homofóbico, vcs deveriam se informar mais. Nenhum hétero é obrigado a ouvir falar de homens se beijando e nem por isso é homofobia. O que estão fazendo é apologia ao homessexualismo, querendo levantar bandeiras como se fosse a coisa mais normal do mundo. Ele tem todo o direito de não gostar dessas conversas, mas é só olhar as atitudes com o Sérgio por exemplo. Ele não aceita ser chamado de DIVA e nem brincadeiras homossexuais e está em seu direito.
Vocês estão muito mal informados se baseando num vídeo todo editado. Pra opiniar, deveriam assistir ao "pay per view". Fica a dica.

Olha, eu tenho ppv e ele é homofóbico sim! Ele tem TODO o direito de não gostar, mas estar sentado à mesa e falar que esse assunto lhe tirou o apetite é o mesmo que falar que "gays são nojentos!". Se isso não é homofobia, eu não sei o que é...

This is in response to a previous commenter.

OK Tarcisio so what if somebody suspects that he might be gay? Are you seriously trying to rationalize homophobia spurred by paranoia in order to defend the man's image? That's ridiculous and no he's not a good guy like you say he is. A good guy wouldn't threaten to assault a woman and walk around with the ego that he has. He's obviously got self confidence issues which is pathetic for a fighter and exposes his true weaknesses.

This man is insane and must be eliminated. Freedom of speech can only go so far before it reaches a breaking point and then it has to be dealt with.

Ignorance is a poison.

Todos tem direito de manifestar os sentimentos e o opções sexuais. Se os Gays não gostam de Marcelo Dourado isso também pode ser considerado homofobia. E concordo com a colega Branca!!!!

Força Dourado...vc tem personalidade e é sincero ao contrario de muitos(?) na casa!!!!!

Oh boy... since this whole maddness started a lot of homophobic acts have occured, including harassment. I wonder why so many people are trying to defend the guy. They have been to several gay home pages to offend gay people and to say "God dont like homossexuals". I am very embarrassed as a Brazilian to see people acting like that.

And, by the way, YES HE IS HOMOPHOBIC. He said only homo guys get AIDS, he left the table where people were talking about gay places by saying he was disgusted, he said he would beat a lesbian if she said something to a girlfriend of his because, lesbians want to be men and should be beaten like man. If that is not homophobia, I wonder what it is.

@Helton Nossa q perola: "Se os Gays não gostam de Marcelo Dourado isso também pode ser considerado homofobia."

Digna de um fan do Dourado.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is a big lie, his best friend's house is gay, he is not homophobic!!

Querem votar em alguém falso, manipulador e que merece sair pelo comportamento e personalidade, votem na Angelica, essa sim não vale nada!!!

Na boa.. tenho 16 anos , de tudo que ouço escuto e olho sei oq penso , e agradeço aos meus pais por me ensinarem a ser assim.. E sim sou GAY! Nao tenho pra quem esconder pra minha familia e apóio sim a saída desse tremendo homofóbico, como qualquer outro macho sem as BALLZ pra mostrar.. Ou deixe-me lembralos.. Ele não gosta de estar presente , não tem afinidade , as diversas insinuações de que ele é sim homofóbico ,e ainda pior ,que bater numa lésbica e jogar elas no hospital??? Eu vo votar + de 10x até esse cara sair e eu ver ele estampado na revista oq ele tem a dizer a respeito! Jogando? Pode até ser , de MAL-GOSTO? E MUITO! BOTA ELE PRA FORA!!

I’m from Brazil either, and wanna make clear that Dourado isn’t homofobic. Here come the facts:

There are 3 gays in the house, and two of them and Dourado are been voting for leave the house today. One of the gays, the girl, is losing for Dourado, and probaly will leave the house today and lose the game. The news that Dourado is homofobic was send by fans of that girl, traing to change the game and made her, Angélica stay, but because of her ATITUDES in the game, most of the public don’t like her, and her sexualy DOESN’T MATTER! And least, but very very import to prove that Dourado isn’t a homofobic, the third gay in the house, Serginho, already declare that he prefer Dourado than Angelica and Dicesar, the drag queen, and his twisted is for Dourado permanence in the house, because he’s a BETTER PERSON, and that’s! Sorry for the bad english!

I think you´re completely wrong.

Please read what I have to say about the guy, with an open mind. Please pay attention to my arguments.

Gay people can be as unfair to others as the others can be to gay people.

SO PLEASE, IF YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS HAPPENING DON'T VOTE.
VOTE IN ONE BIG BROTHER, VOTE IN WHAT YOU GUYS HAVE KNOWLEDGE.

I bet someone hacked the vote for him to win.

IMHO Marcelo Dourado must be kicked out of this game, he is a ignorant person, arrogant and he was arrested for drug possession and is in the game, I think he should get out of this game, but the Globo television will keep participating in this game to be controversial and that give audience to the broadcaster who loves to manipulate the opinion of others.

Get Out Dourado

I'm homosexual, and watch Big Brother Brazil full-time work as a news site about the bbb, I think before you to post material without knowledge of the facts wrong and the guy i quoted and very thick and you say well macho but that does not make homophobic because he has always had a great relationship with the three gay men in the house, including the girl who fought with him, by the way had many conversations about life and about her girlfriend outside the house giving advice to she's nothing but she revolted and said a lot of things that were true, so that today has been eliminated with most of a wall record of all the editions of the program among people in the house that he was cheered by one of the gay But if you want to talk about something seek out the gay character of the program because I do not think they are representing our class in a dignified manner. I do not want to talk when I'm gay be compared to those people who are there because we are well-represented.
excuse the outburst but needed to talk.

Dourado Win, :( oMG! Angelica out! ¬¬ PLEASE HELP IN NEXT WEEK TO LEAVE DOURADO!!
