Today, fans of the Brazilian singer and songwriter Anitta were left disappointed after a sneak peek of her upcoming music video was released. The clip showed the singer in a lavish setting, with expensive cars and jewelry. However, some viewers felt that the video was too ostentatious and did not reflect the current economic climate in Brazil. The clip featured Anitta wearing an extravagant dress while surrounded by luxury items such as a Ferrari and diamond jewelry. This sparked criticism from many viewers who felt that it was inappropriate for Anitta to be flaunting her wealth at a time when many people in Brazil are struggling financially due to the coronavirus pandemic. "It's really insensitive of her to be showing off all this wealth when so many people are struggling right now," said one viewer on Twitter. "She should be using her platform to spread awareness about how bad things have gotten for so many people." Others argued that it is important for artists to express themselves through their art, regardless of what is going on in the world around them. "Artists should be allowed to express themselves without worrying about how it will be perceived," said another viewer on Twitter. "Anitta has every right to make whatever kind of video she wants." Despite these differing opinions, most viewers agreed that Anitta could have used her platform more responsibly by focusing on issues such as poverty or inequality instead of simply flaunting her wealth. This sentiment was echoed by some members of the Brazilian government who called out Anitta for being tone-deaf during such a difficult time for Brazilians. In response to the criticism, Anitta issued an apology stating that she had not intended any offense with her new music video and had simply been expressing herself artistically. She also stated that she would use her platform more responsibly in future projects and would focus on highlighting important social issues rather than just showing off material possessions.
