Brazilian Singer Anitta Turns Up the Heat in Gorgeous Photos in Florida
Anitta is no stranger to being in front of a camera. The award-winning singer, whose 2021 hit single “Envolver” broke the record for the first solo Latin song to top the Spotify Global Daily chart and earned her a Guinness World Record, is used to paparazzi, videographers and fans snapping her photo all the time.
She made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2021, and while it was a step out of her comfort zone and a memorable occasion, the WSJ. Magazine Music Innovator of 2022 calmed her nerves by trying to treat the experience like a music video.
“[It’s my] first time shooting for Sports Illustrated, and I feel really great about the pictures and the results. I’m in love with everything,” the 30-year-old said at the time. “My music has a lot of personality. I can be versatile. In music videos, I try to be different girl every time. I like the fact that people don’t know what to expect when something [new is] coming from me. They don’t know [if] I’m going to be sexy, crazy, romantic. I love to break the wall and make people think out of the box.”
