      Jonas Lopes blows the country away.

      Handsome, seductive, and with a breathtaking smile, star Jonas Lopes has left the teen soap opera for a major role in the new nine o'clock soap opera. A sweetheart of the female audience, at 21 years of age, he will play the main character in the soap opera written by Lyra Machado. The award-winning novelist told us firsthand that the role was written for Jonas after meeting him at an awards ceremony:

      "Jonas is a young man who captivates everyone around him. I wrote the main role of the soap opera Dramas of Life for him and I am sure you will be surprised and seduced by the story of the ambitious young man who does everything to grow in life."

      "It's a challenge," said Jonas, who will play his first villain. "But I feel prepared and I'm very grateful to Lyra for trusting me."

      The hunk Jonas Lopes has a new affair.

      Seducer. This is how we could describe actor Jonas Lopes, 23, who was seen leaving a bar in the south side of the city cuddling Luna Muniz, his partner in the seasonal soap Once upon a time. The two lovebirds left giggling and exchanging affection, showing that they understand each other very well both on and off the television network. Who must not be enjoying this very much is singer Angelica Vieira, who, until yesterday, was the actor's official girlfriend. Our team tried to contact the country music diva, but her press office said they don't comment on the star's personal life. Jonas answered our call and said only that he and Luna are "getting to know each other better”.

      Famous actor loses role in soap opera after director discovers he was having an affair with his wife.

      One of the sweethearts of the soap operas was seen leaving a motel, downtown, in the car of the wife of a very influential director of soap operas in the TV network where the boy has a contract. The photo circulated in WhatsApp groups, until it reached the big shot of the soap operas, who went to the dome of the network and demanded his dismissal from the soap opera, which would be directed by the cuckold, or better, by the cheated husband.

      As the article is family-oriented, it will not disclose the name of the not-so-holy man, but will leave a hint: he is known behind the scenes as the prince, since he is a true charmer of women..

      Bel Dias, column Now I've Spoken.

      One

      The morning had barely begun and the Star office, the leading artists' agency in the entire country, was already in full speed. With a headset on her ear and a stack of the main gossip magazines and printed notes from Internet websites in her hand, Melissa walked through the corridors of the agency towards Bruno's office, while talking to him on the phone.

      - Mauro is furious - she said, referring to the agency's owner. - You need to think of some urgent crisis management action, Bruno. I just saw Bel Dias on TV, talking about the case of the famous actor who was seen leaving the motel with the wife of a TV soap opera director.

      Bruno let out a deep sigh on the other end of the line, but his voice didn't lose its usual cheerfulness. Melissa found it incredible how her boss always had a solution for the problems Jonas got involved in, yet without losing his composure.

      - Did he mention Jonas' name? - She asked.

      - No, since we sued his column for talking about the peculiar tastes of you-know-who, he started saying that "since the column is a righteous one" he doesn't mention the individual's name - she said, citing the case of a famous country singer. - But who else is called a prince in the artistic world besides Jonas? - She asked in a lower tone of voice, as she went to the coffee room to fill a cup, not wanting her co-workers to hear her.

      - Did Mauro say something? - Bruno asked, his voice sounding a little muffled, indicating that he had entered the building's elevator. The young redhead headed towards the entrance of the agency, knowing that when she got to the reception she would find him leaving the elevator.

      - He asked me to set up a time for you to talk to him. - She started, but interrupted herself as she passed by two directors. - Hello, good morning - she greeted the two men in suits and got back on the phone. - I tried to explain that you had a busy day, but I don't know if we can get away from it for long.

      In moments of crisis like these, all Bruno preferred to avoid was a confrontation with Mauro Reis, the Star's president.

      - Okay, let's set up a meeting with Jonas - he said.

      Ping! The sound indicating the arrival of the elevator sounded just as Melissa arrived at the reception desk. The doors opened and when Bruno Duarte came out, he turned off his cell phone, stuffing it in his jacket pocket, while taking the huge coffee mug from his assistant's hands.

      - Thank you, Mel - he said, with a smile that could melt the glaciers of Alaska.

      The man was gorgeous, Melissa couldn't deny it, but all she saw when she looked at him was her boss and friend. Unlike Jonas, whom she often referred to as cute but slutty. The guy was the most inconsiderate prick she had ever met and who, due to her job, she was forced to put up with.

      - Not at all - she continued, talking without losing the rhythm of their conversation as they walked down the corridors. - I left everything that came out on the topic on your desk and...

      Ah, damn it! - She muttered as she saw Mauro
