About the book

Spanning from the 1980’s to present day, Eloisa Aquino delves into the largely queer Brazilian female pop singer population. Eloisa details each artist’s public queer identity accompanied by a portrait illustration of the artist. She highlights seven singers: Angela Ro Ro, Marina Lima, Laura Finocchiaro, Vange Leonel, Cássia Eller, Adriana Calcanhotto, and Mart'nália. The artists range in their use of labels, queer pride, activism, and coming out story.
