Biography

Born in Florianópolis and raised in Piquete, São Paulo, Borges began her career in São Paulo as a crooner in an orchestra. [3] She worked with such maestros as Clóvis Lima and Salgado Filho, always in a singing and dancing role.

Her transition to roles in television came with appearing in the Rede Record telenovela Venha ver o sol na estrada with Márcia de Windsor. [3] At the beginning of her career, she acted in Beto Rockfeller on the now-defunct Rede Tupi, then went on to act in minor roles until she joined Rede Globo, where she landed major roles in telenovelas such as Escrava Isaura, Dona Xepa, Dancin' Days, and A Indomada. She has been a constant presence in Gloria Perez productions, namely Carmem, De Corpo e Alma, O Clone, Caminho das Índias, Amazônia, de Galvez a Chico Mendes, América, and Salve Jorge. [3] During her career, she has won dozens of prizes. In 2009, she participated in the music video for the Maria Gadú song Dona Cila. In 2020, she starred as Bernadete in the series Auto Posto. [4]

Personal life

In 2003, during a performance by the Unidos da Tijuca samba school, Borges fell from one of the parade floats and suffered a pelvic fracture. The float she had been on had several issues since the beginning of the performance, including a broken wheel. After the accident, she was lifted by firefighters and taken to Souza Aguiar hospital in downtown Rio de Janeiro. She underwent emergency surgery and had to have 22 bolts in her pelvis and a titanium plate on her knee. She sued the samba school and was compensated with 700,000 reais for her injuries. [5]

Borges is known for being an extremely sincere and truthful person.[ citation needed ] She owned a thrift store in Salvador, where she lives, but ultimately sold the business in 2021. [6]
