During an interview for Veja, Wanessa said: "The principal of the school was always insinuating that we would not pay the college. She humiliated us, but I was so insecure that I never told this to my parents, and even that was a mockery. Once, to make me happy, my father took a borrowed lance just to give me the taste of going to the car class."[8]
Also in 1991, she started a band with her three friends Kiko, Leandro and Bruno, who in the future would form the group KLB.[9] The boys played the instruments and Wanessa was the lead singer, The band's first name was The Fenders, a reference to the guitar brand. They then changed their name to Neon and started performing at clubs and parties with versions of songs by Xuxa and Leandro & Leonardo.[10]
In 1993, at the age of ten, Wanessa began to study theater, ballet and tap dance, and over time learnt street dance.[4] As an adolescent, she began to do gymnastics and artistic gymnastics to gain physical fitness when dancing.

On 11 January 2004, the Jovens Tardes project ended after the producer Marlene Mattos left the station. Mattos then signed with another station, Rede Bandeirantes, and invited Wanessa to host a show with the same format.

Era Uma Vez, her biggest tour. Inspired by Broadway musicals, it was directed by theatre diva Marília Pêra and featured five acts and costume changes.[47]
On 22 August, the third single from W, "Louca", was released, having been chosen by the public through a website vote.[48]

On 17 May, she announced that she had shelved the material she was recording and changed the producer team to make a redirection in her career and a move towards sertanejo music.[71][72] She re-recorded the album with Eduardo Pepato as producer,[73] explaining: "The way of pop I do not identify myself, it is not my beach, my footprint is romanticism and the sertanejo is a strong mark of my I'm doing what I believe."[74]
She left her contract with Sony Music and signed with Work Show, known for its sertanejo releases.[75] On 26 July, she released the first single from the album, "Coração Embriagado"; this reached number 19 on Billboard Brasil, the best result of her career until then.[76] "Vai que Vira Amor" was released as a promotional single on 26 August.[77][78] On 19 August she released her eighth studio album, titled 33.[79][80] The work received harsh criticism, with critics labelling her a sell-out "without musical identity".[81][82]
Musical characteristics
Influences
Wanessa has cited Celine Dion, Shania Twain and Mariah Carey as three of her great references.[83][84] In her early albums, she sought inspiration from country pop artists, noting Twain as well as Dixie Chicks and Faith Hill; she has covered the songs "Not Ready to Make Nice" and "Breathe" by the latter two artists.[84][85] She performed with her father on the Pai e Filha Tuor and sang several songs by artists who influenced her, including "From This Moment On" and "You're Still the One" by Twain.[86] Another artist cited as important in her development is Rita Lee, with whom she re-recorded the track "Coisas da Vida" for the album Meu Momento.[87]

Musical style
Wanessa's earlier career encompassed country pop, pop music and dance-pop. She also recorded songs in genres such as pop rock ("Sem Querer", "Não Resisto a Nós Dois"), reggaeton ("Me Engana que Eu Gosto", "Amor Amor"), forró ("Me Pega de Jeito"), dubstep ("Sticky Dougth"), arrocha ("Vai Que Vira Amor") and R&B ("Fly", "Não Me Leve a Mal").[93]
In an interview in 2013, she said that she has always tried to keep Brazilian elements in her songs, for example funk carioca from Rio in "Sticky Dough."[94]
She set aside her usual musical styles on the album DNA in 2011, which featured EDM, electronic and electropop and was recorded entirely in English.[95]
In 2016, she began to record in the sertanejo genre.[96]
Voice
Wanessa has a mezzo-soprano voice with a range of 3.2 octaves. In the songs "Não Me Leve a Mal" and "Eu Estarei Aqui", she holds a note for 16 seconds.[97]
Personal life
In 1998, at age 16, she was the initial target of a kidnapping; the kidnappers accidentally took her uncle Welington Camargo instead and sent the family a piece of his ear, and the incident became a national story.[98] Soon after, even though she was protected by security, she suffered a new attack when her school was robbed.[8] After that attack, her family moved to the city of Plantation, Florida, United States for a year, to protect her from future attacks.[8]
In 1998, during adolescence, Wanessa dated the singer Leandro Scornavacca, a member of KLB. The relationship ended a year later when she moved to the United States.[99] In 2000 she began a relationship with the actor Dado Dolabella, which lasted until 2002. In 2003 she had brief relationships with the actor Erik Marmo and with the singers Felipe Dylon and Rogério Flausino.[100][101] In 2004 also she dated the actor Rodrigo Prado for six months.[102]
In 2003 Wanessa revealed in an interview for Veja magazine that she had not been a virgin for some time.[103] Her parents did not know this and, days later, her father was surprised by the news in an interview.[104]
In 2005 she met Marcus Buaiz, businessman from Espírito Santo, and the couple married on 26 May 2007.[105][106][107] On 18 June 2011 she announced her first pregnancy during an interview for the magazine Contigo!. José Marcus was born on 5 January 2012.[108][109] In December 2013 she announced she was pregnant again. Her second son, João Francisco, was born on 19 June 2014.[110]
Activism
Wanessa is an ambassador for the NGO Fundação SOS Mata Atlântica, which is fighting for the preservation of the Atlantic Forest. Due to her efforts to promote the NGO and its goals, and her work for the clean-up of the Tietê River in São Paulo, she was awarded the 2007 Pro-Social Prize at the My Nick Awards event.[111] She also received the title of Personality of the Year and JK Jewel from Cicesp. In 2012, she donated a fee of $150,000 from an advertisement to Unicef.[112]
In 2014, she donated a $50,000 fee from Caras magazine towards social projects.[113] She also put on a virtual fundraising show as part of a fundraising campaign for a boy named Ryan, who suffers from Ondine syndrome.[114] In December 2015, Wanessa was appointed a UN ambassador, committing herself to UNAIDS actions in response to HIV and discrimination.[115]
LGBT advocacy
In 2009, Wanessa became involved in LGBT causes and the fight for equal rights for all: "Every human being has the option of loving whoever he or she wants, regardless of their sexual choice. I think it's great, I do not see anything against being against people who make love, is ridiculous. It is a posture of society that no longer fits in today's time."[116] In 2011 and 2015, Wanessa performed at the 15th São Paulo Gay Pride Parade for audiences of 1 million people.[117][118]
After having her first child with businessman Marcus Buaiz, the singer was asked how she would react if her son was gay: "I look the best I can."[119] In 2013, she celebrated on social media the approval of law 4277, which recognized same-sex marriage in Brazil and has criticized Marco Feliciano's 'Gay Cure' project.[120]
In 2015, Wanessa criticized opposition to adoption by homosexual couples: "A human being who says in the name of God that it is better for a child to be abandoned than to have two parents can not speak in the name of God. A lack of education and prejudice dictate what you are. God is in our hearts, in our actions, in the love of our neighbor, in compassion; love is God, love is greater than everything."[121]
