Friends for years, the actresses celebrated Carnival together for the first time at Sapucaí, in Camarote Arpoador, and revealed what strengthened their bond.
On the night of February 15, 2026, Camila Pitanga and Cris Vianna experienced a special reunion during the parades at Sapucaí. The actresses, longtime friends, enjoyed the festivities together at Camarote Arpoador, one of the hottest spots at Rio’s Carnival.
Invited by Koleston, the venue’s sponsor, the duo starred in the “Powerful Duo” campaign. The brand expands its offerings beyond coloring and launches its first hair care products: the Powerful Treatment with Plex technology and the 9-in-1 Powerful Oil.
Friendship strengthened through Black feminism
The choice of the actresses to represent this union of forces was no accident. Camila and Cris became even closer after taking classes on Black feminism, a connection point that strengthened their mutual admiration.
I’ve known Camila since I became an actress, and today she’s become a friend who strengthens me. When I came to work at TV Globo and got to know her personally, it was a true gift. Living Carnival at Sapucaí alongside her, a woman I adore and respect so much, makes everything even more special. This exchange, this energy, and this connection are what I call truly ‘powerful’. Cris Vianna
Camila Pitanga was full of praise for her friend.
I deeply admire the beauty and zest for life that Cris has. She is, without a doubt, one of the most elegant, intelligent, and generous women I know. I love being with her, so it’s an immense pleasure and honor to share this moment here. Camila Pitanga
Beauty secrets for the Carnival marathon
Radiant and wearing personalized outfits, the actresses also shared their beauty secrets for the Carnival marathon. Camila emphasized that, beyond good products, hair vitality reflects overall wellness.
I drink a lot of water and try to eat very well, because everything is reflected in hair health. Camila Pitanga
