Lucy Ramos (1982- ) is a Brazilian television actress. She is best known for playing Adelaide on “Sinhá Moça”.
This blog lists her as one of the ten most beautiful Afro-Brazilian women. She has pretty eyes and a pretty face and thick black hair.
She was born Lucilene Ramos da Silva in Recife in Pernambuco. Her family moved to Sao Paulo when she was five. They were very poor.
When she was 12 she joined a girl’s football team. She loved football and was good at it. She could have made a living at it, but because she was thin and pretty people told her she should be a model. Her trainer even hooked her up with a small modelling agency. So at 16 she became a model.
By 18 she was with a large modelling agency. She appeared in ads and magazines. But at 1.70 metres (5 foot 7) she was too short to be on the runway and become a high fashion model.
She loved modelling: she got to meet new people and see new places. She saw Rio for the first time. It was her mother’s dream for her. But Ramos did not want to be just a pretty girl selling something in a box. She had always wanted to be an actress. So she took the money she made from modelling and went to acting school.
She first appeared on television in 2004 when she was 21. She worked for Globo, the largest television network in Brazil. They saw that she had beauty and talent and in 2006 they put her in their telenovela “Sinhá Moça”.
Sinhá Moça is the daughter of a coffee grower. When she returns home from her studies in 1887 she frees her father’s slaves – against his will!
Ramos played Adelaide, Sinhá Moça’s slave companion, a supporting character. It made her known all over the country. It was her first big part and so far her best.
In 2007 she played Guguta on “Pé na Jaca”.
She also appeared on “Dança no Gelo” (Dance on Ice), a sort of “Pop Idol” for ice skating. She has been skating since she was a girl and the viewers loved her. She came in fifth (out of 12).
Her dream is to become a great film actress – and to buy her mother a house! She has had long talks with Zezé Motta, one of the greatest black actresses in Brazil.
She has already appeared in one film, “Turistas”, a Hollywood film by John Stockwell (known as “Paradise Lost” in Britain) about Americans who get lost in Brazil. Ramos plays Arolea who gets the Americans to like her only to rob them!
To keep her good looks she walks for an hour three times a week by the sea and avoids foods cooked in fat.
She says you should follow your dreams and never give up. That is just what she did.

Brazilian women are overrated. Yeah they got some nice ones but no more or less than any other group. People are way to into labels (Wanting to claim they got something “exotic”)

if anything, Brazilian women are underrated. they generally possess something special, attitude, spirit, i cant put my finger on it. as an American in Rio I was just blown away by the amount of beautiful women. for me now, American women cant compare. i have plans to move there after college. the people are wonderful, the culture is awesome. everybody should do themselves a huge favor and spend a couple weeks in Rio.

I told a friend of mine who had been there that I would love to live in Rio. He said I would not like it: it is too violent. Is that true? How does it compare to New York?

Abagond,
I’ve been cruising around your blog for awhile. For this reason, I think I have it right that you have not yet been to Brazil.
I highly recommend that you do visit Brazil. Keep in mind; Like the U.S, every region is different. How can one compare New Orleans to Minneapolis Minnesota – for example. Brazil is the same in this regard.
Key areas:
1. Rio
2. Salvador
3. Sao Paulo
4. Recife
5. Manaus
6. Brasilia
I wanted to keep this short and find myself writing more -sorry. Alas, a lot of this would be hindered by language barriers. I recommend making friends with some Brazilians so that you can go and experience the country and its diversity in a more “personal” way.
