Reproduction/Rede GloboParticipants questioned whether the expression ‘Calabreso’ was fatphobic
The last heated discussion between Davi and Lucas on BBB24, which took place in the early hours of this Thursday, 1st, drew attention due to the intriguing expression “calabreso” uttered by the app driver.
During the party, Davi confronted the capoeira teacher with the accusation: “You’re a gossip! Go ahead, calabreso!”
What does ‘Calabreso’ mean?
The origin of the expression goes back to the comedian Toninho Tornado, who popularized it as a nickname in his pranks on social media in recent years, mainly on YouTube.
The peculiarity of the term aroused the curiosity of Leidy, Giovanna and Marcus, leading them to approach Davi for clarification soon after the confusion.
In the middle of the conversation, Leidy asked if “calabreso” could be interpreted as fatphobia, provoking a firm response from the driver: “I didn’t call him fat, just ‘calabreso’. It’s a review that has in Salvador. It has no meaning, in the perception of swearing… Let him invent whatever he wants”.
Who does bin Laden think he is to yell at David like that?
