Acadêmicos do Salgueiro opened the planning for Carnival 2027 amid a controversy involving Gkay, who was the school's rookie muse this year. The actress and comedian claims her position was not renewed because she refused to pay R$ 300 thousand, a charge denied by the school, but which nonetheless became a topic of conversation and caused an uproar. The Red and White school stated it will keep most of its muse team for next year, with only Gkay and Carol Bakamura not returning to parade with the school.
Carol Bakamura, a former Faustão dancer, is in negotiations to take the same position at Portela, where she was seen last Sunday, the 30th. The information indicates that Mangueiral school could be her next destination for carnival. In parallel, Anitta will be announced by Grande Rio this Sunday as the school's new samba queen.
Salgueiro stated it is focused on the connection between the glamour of stardom and the strength of its own community for the planning of Carnival 2027. The school kept in its lineup the celebrities who earned the position in 2026, including Bruna Esquenta, Ana Flávia Barcelos, and Amanda Omin, who left the runway section.
