“Estúdio i” kicked off the day with a special video reminiscent of several moments from Artur Xexéo on TV Globo. The 69-year-old writer and journalist died yesterday in Rio de Janeiro.
The opening of GloboNews also saw an emotional tribute from Maria Beltrão to her friend. The presenter was moved when talking about Xexéo from a “personal perspective”.
I ask permission to speak about Xexéo from a personal perspective, because if there is something that makes me proud, it means that I have earned the right to speak about it with some intimacy. As I wrote in the book I launched last year, a kind of catharsis for dealing with the challenges of the pandemic, for me, Xexéo has always been the man behind the ‘myth’. And today I puff out my chest to say he’s not just my colleague from Estúdio i, as a great friend. This is what I wrote. What a friend he is! Xexéo was present, he scolded me when I was sick and did not look for a doctor, he consoled me when I was sad, he was always with me. Behind that corrupt method consecrated him the heart of a generous, sensitive and loving giant. I started by saying Mary
Maria also mentions that in 2016 he had a seizure and did not wake up until 30 days later. The journalist said that Xexéo believes he is alive because he needs to “resolve some outstanding issues”, and that he has solved them all.
The summary is this, I love you so much, Xexéo. I am sure you will continue to intercede for each of us here. I was born forever. Presenter finished انتهى
Artur Xexéo discovered a cancer similar to non-Hodgkin lymphoma two weeks ago. He was taken to hospital at Clínica São Vicente, in Javea, south of Rio. Colleagues, artists and politicians honored the writer and journalist.
