Portuguese artist Patrícia Ribeiro, the first trans singer to achieve success in her home country, gained significant popularity after participating in Big Brother Portugal in 2004. During that edition, her song "Quero Ser Feliz (Preciso de uma Chance)" went viral among the house contestants and ended up becoming a true hit, significantly boosting her artistic career.

The song gained so much popularity that the housemates themselves created a choreography to accompany it. Patrícia even performed at the grand finale of the Portuguese reality show, solidifying her space in the country's music industry.

Now, the artist has publicly expressed her desire to participate in Big Brother Brasil 27. In an interview, she stated that she has always dreamed of entering a Brazilian reality show and believes that her strong life story and her striking personality would make her a great participant, going so far as to declare that she would be the winner of the show.
