Anitta: Daddies, Dating & Dancing (FBF)

Anita, the most successful Brazilian artist ever, shares a deeply personal and candid journey from her humble favela roots in Rio to global stardom. As a self-managed artist with a Grammy nomination, she embodies authenticity by embracing the persona "Anita" to challenge societal norms around gender, sexuality, and performance. She credits her linguistic fluency to consistent daily study, not romantic relationships. Anita openly discusses her sexual experiences, relationships, and boundaries, emphasizing emotional safety, self-respect, and the need to reject performative behavior. Her path highlights a shift from relentless ambition to mindful self-awareness, especially after a serious illness that redefined her values. She advocates for healthy intimacy, including communication, mutual respect, and the use of tools like lubrication and sensory experiences. Anita promotes a refreshing, humanized view of sexuality—free from shame or hypocrisy—encouraging listeners to embrace their individuality, rest, and authenticity. Her message is one of empowerment: to be unapologetically oneself, to value emotional well-being over external validation, and to redefine success beyond fame or frequency of sexual encounters.

What is up Daddy Gang? It is your founding father Alex Cooper with Call Her Daddy. Anita, welcome to Call Her Daddy. Thank you. Daddy Gang, we are in the presence of truly someone that is just doing it all and I'm honored to be sitting with you today. Anita is the most successful Brazilian artist to ever come out of the country. Billboard magazine has called her more influential than Beyonce, Rihanna and Lady Gaga. What the fuck? No big fucking deal, Anita. In Brazil. I don't know. International. I don't know. You also are nominated for a Grammy this year for Best New Artist. Congratulations. Thank you. It is like your career is incredible and watching you grow has just been so fucking cool. But I know you from being met at the baby to baby gala. Yeah. I need to hear what your favorite moment is from that event because I know we met like briefly but we were sitting next to each other. I was dying. You are so funny. You're so charismatic. You have such a personality. What do you remember from that event? I think our table was so fun. We had like very fun people with us and we had fun just talking about things that people would never talk in a fancy table of action. You know, dinner. I don't bake. Yes. I need it and I are like we meet in two seconds later and Anita is like so like how does your vagina smell? And I was like oh hey girl what's up. We're like let's talk about our buttholes and our vaginas as like a corporate Spotify person is sitting directly. My favorite was also when they not that like everyone knows the baby to baby gala but so there's like angels that work at the event. Oh my god. So Anita is like chilling and like now it's like toward the end of the night like people have left but like people are saying so Anita is like no girl like I got an early morning like I'm going to dip out and I'm like totally get it. I'll be leaving soon. So everyone in the crowd is sitting and they're like hey can all the angels stand up to give people context. It's about 11 women in a crowd of 300 and they go everywhere. All the angels stand up. Anita just starts standing up. She's like buy everyone I gotta go and it's a dead silent room and she's like wait and I'm like Anita it's only the angels worse than that. It's worse than that. Tell us. In my mind. I thought she was telling she was calling all the women angels. Stand up all the women and I thought all the women was gonna stand up. That's why I stood up. You're like this is the perfect moment for me to like sneak out the back door. Only 11 people of like 300 and Anita literally sits down. She's like mother fuck. That was terrible. It was it was a great moment. Let's kind of go back through like your life a little bit to get to know you better. What was life like where you grew up outside of Rio de Janeiro. So people don't think when when they see me or they see like my songs and whatever they don't imagine that I come from like the communities. It could be called the ghetto a little bit. It's like the favelas when you go to Brazil there's like come in these places that like the houses are really close to each other. It's a really like humble place simple. I come from a place like that. I was born and raised in a place like that. My mom used to do the best she could to fake the danger and the bad sides of it for me and my brother. So we all see everything with like this beauty and playing in the streets things like that very like very like in the hood you know. Yeah. And but she always told us that a way for us to leave there. It's not that we don't like there but we all want to leave because we want a better life. So she always had that the only way to get out would be studying and we always did the best we could like study and doing like all we could and I always loved music. So I started doing music but also like studying everything. I was my own manager for like 10 years. Me and my brother were partners. So it was a whole job not only from arts but also like business. When and at what age did you realize your love for performing? Oh no since since I was a little kid I was already like singing and when I was three years years old like four or five I was already singing and my family used to ask me like these questions like what are you gonna be when you grow up whatever and I was used to be like I'm gonna be famous I'm gonna be an artist I'm gonna have a pool with my house blah blah blah blah that was literally me. So you kind of always knew always I would pass through some pass by some places that I knew it was like TV places like studios or whatever and I used to open the window or go to the bus window and say like you guys are gonna see me I'm gonna work here blah blah nine years old I was always like this personality kind of crazy. I love that so much though because I think sometimes you have to have that energy in order to get to where you need to get. I was sure it was not that I said like oh I want to be I was sure I would I would tell my family where I was gonna live how my house would be the TV shows are gonna be the people are gonna meet I would be like that when I was a kid I could literally like see and dream about this and like my family was like okay because it was a very humble life so they would never prospect that in my life totally so they would be like okay and I was like you guys don't understand I'm not saying I want to I'm gonna be there. I think there's no option it's happening do you guys want to come along for the ride or not exactly who were some artists that you admired growing up Mariah Carey was my first one she was my first Debye and I had the the opportunity to tell her that and it was crazy and then be on the phone with her for hours that was also crazy for me she was the number one forever and then Rihanna and now I sponsor by Fancy I did their Fancy show I do like photoshoots for Fancy it's crazy even when you're saying that like does it still feel surreal like how much success you've had I think we should always remember because sometimes and I think the industry does this to us they push us to think that we need always more more and more and more and I think nowadays with the internet it's kind of impossible for you to reach everything everyone every time you gotta be happy also you gotta take time for yourself also so I think that uh this speech that I used to have for my life for many years like you can be more you can do more never stop never give up I was like that and when I was like that I couldn't see those things that happened in my life I would be like okay yeah I'm at my right okay yeah I loved it but I couldn't like look and be like wow nowadays for me it's like yeah we can definitely give up we can definitely go rest take a nap go to sleep we don't need all the money in the world you know a person the money doesn't mean happiness and the many as many number ones you get in your life that's not gonna make you happier or not so for me it's like every single thing that happened that happened in my life I learned how to stop and be like wow look at what I did this is so and then live that moment again I got to this reflection went because last year I got super sick right super sick I couldn't do anything I couldn't go upstairs in my house I couldn't do anything literally for three months I was like and I thought literally that I was gonna die it was a whole thing and then I was in the hospital for so long and then I was like you know what I was just working working working to reach everything and thinking I still didn't have enough and now I'm here and what did I get from life like right did I enjoy it did I have fun did I do nothing did I and the thing that I wanted the most was like to travel to have more free time and but today is too much for you to be successful you gotta be on Instagram YouTube TikTok Spotify it's so many things that you gotta do we're just one human being it's too much how can we do all of that it's a lot so I'm not up to waste my life yeah searching for for things anymore because I'm almost 30 now I'm 29 and I do think it was important and amazing for me to do that for so many years but now I just want to rest if I get more success amazing if no and it's okay your birth name is actually Larissa yeah do you mind sharing why and when you started going by Anita so my name lady says very common in Brazil Anita is a name that there was just one character from a series called Anita and I wanted to be this girl because she used to say that she was like an 18 year old character in this series she used to say that she didn't like to be just one girl she liked to wake up and decide which girl she wanted to be today I want to be crazy tomorrow I want to be sexy and then I want to be pretty and then I want to be princess and I was like That's so cool because I don't want I don't like to define myself and be like, okay, I'm this. Yep. I'm so many things. I Like to discover every day a new me, you know, and I think people have the necessity of defining you be like, oh, she is that And I like to be all what is the difference between Larissa and Anita. Oh my god. It's huge. It's Huge. I started my career 12 years ago here in America. I am a best new artist But I am nominated as best new artist for the Grammys because it's a new career started from the zero You know, I left everything and I came to start here again, but 12 years ago when I started there I created this character because me, Larissa I'm very shy to be honest. I'm very insecure. I'm very like I don't like going out I don't like socializing. I don't like doing anything, you know, I'm so the opposite of who I am when I'm in this character And when I created this character Anita, I wanted a Person a persona that would be completely Against hypocrisy, you know, people that are hypocrites that say one thing and do the other, you know, and That's what I wanted to do. How many languages can you sing in? Sing I can sing in five languages. It's because I sing at Portuguese, Spanish, English, Italian and French, but French just a little bit I speak just a little bit and Italian a little bit How the fuck did you learn all these languages? So I'm gonna give a very good example right now of Larissa and Anita, right? So when I go to in their view as Anita, you get a deliver entertainment, right? So people ask me how did you learn so many languages? They say with boyfriends Whenever I wanted to have no a new language, I would date a different guy and like different accents But in reality. I had which is kind of boring the reality.

I'm a fucking Italian guy Like actually I was just hiring people and they were just teaching me Do you ever worry that like now being so honest about like the two characters that people will be like wait Why what the fuck like this isn't the real you? No, because I think it's so important for me to have this clear And to understand that I use my character to break rules to bake to break boundaries and like Things that limit us women to do all women women that wants to be free in sex women to want women that wants to be free in Work whatever I like this character. It brings it brings to us Self-esteem confident and something to look at even I do when I'm myself ladies and nowadays I look at me as a character And I'd be like okay. I think I can get that from Anita and be a little bit more confident about myself You know it's so much easier for people to watch a movie and See that character and be like oh, okay and Understand the actor is another thing. Yeah, but they don't understand that Physicians singers, they do the same thing. We do the same thing. There's no way we're bringing the on self the person that we are at home The person that we are in family and bring this person on stage. It's not Entertainable. It's not it's not Different enough for people to look and be like oh, this is special. Who is your favorite person that you've collaborated with on a song? Snoop Dogg That is for sure Because I think him and Cardi B because they are so funny and Snoop Dogg is very like simple humble and he's like Everything for him is a vibe It's all about if he likes you if he likes what you're your energy If if he see he has something kind of I don't know He sees someone and he feels the energy and then he decides if he likes or not I feel I think so that's what I think from him Because I just feel like I can hug him and be there like safe forever I think it is one of the coolest guys and Cardi B should just just funny Back good energy like bass energy like high level.

Yeah, the Anita challenge went viral on TikTok Which I remember just watching these videos and being like one how is this not getting censored on TikTok? I can't even like fucking curse at my TikToks meanwhile people are like doing the challenge and like it it's incredible watching it Can you explain how twerking in Brazil is different than twerking in America? Cuz it's not even only twerking. It's party in general. I think here in America people in the parties They are more concerned about hold it with Where to going what they're wearing and you know, it's like the table situation in Brazil. There's no table situation You go to the party. There's no table. Everyone is just one place Mass together. Oh find out, you know, and We love dancing. We love dancing. Sometimes we don't even understand whether you're singing. We just want to dance Sometimes it's just the same lyrics over and over. They just sing a different melody just same words always and we love it. We just want to dance We just want to listen and dance. What is it like being known for like the way that you dance though? Are you like so proud of yourself? It's crazy because in Brazil, it started this fever of like, oh, we're gonna do a need a moves I need a moves. Okay, now we need you to twerk. Okay. Okay, so this is gonna be iconic I think people will fucking love it. Is this the wrong surface? Oh my god. Okay. Okay. Okay What? Wait. That must make a lot of upper body. You doing this? What is this? Anita. Oh my god. I can only breathe. No, but you're, you're not the one as hard though. When you do like, when you do a circle, but you stop in the middle, so you do a squail. Do that was so good. I am like inspired now to go home and like, secretly practice it, but like not letting anyone know I'm practicing it, but like, I will be working on it. Next time I see you, maybe I'll have a little move to back down. And do you incorporate these into your sex? No. No, it's the dance. When the guy asks me to dance, I go like, dance first. It's never gonna fucking dance. So I'm like, what the fucking question is that? Wait, you're like, I'm not, I'm not performing. Exactly. I get silly. It's so annoying. I'm like, dance first. You dance. I dance. Are you currently single or in a relationship? I'm single, completely single and not looking for anything. And so happy with myself. And I don't have sex in months. So many months. I don't even remember the last time I had sex to be honest with you. Are you just masturbating? No. Listen, I didn't find anyone special enough that I would think like, okay, there's one deserves to come here and find it yet. Yeah, you're spending time alone. But I was crazy before I used to like fuck even like when a person that would cross me on a street, I'll be like, you come here. Stop. I would be like that. How did you get that confidence? Just like go up to people because I was living Anita 24/7 of the time. Do you have a type of guy? No. Girl breathing in the live. I don't know. There's something inside that comes and this something for some reason I can feel it and then I'm like, so there's no type. I can literally show you three different acts. Boyfriends are new, be like, what's. of the sense between these people. I love that. What do you think is like something that you're most attracted to in a person? I think when they're funny, I love when they're funny. You make me laugh and I'm like, I love it. And that's so good. When they are confident, a little aggressive, but in a good way. I like when they are aggressive, in a good way, not like abusive relation. Have you found yourself in any like abusive relation? Oh yeah, terrible. But I needed just once and then never again. Like in two months, after it is one guy I had, like for a year and something. Wow. I can look, if I'm starting with someone in one month, I can feel it's abusive and I'm like out. Can you try to give like, if people are listening, they're like, fuck, like I think I may be in one. Like do you have any like signs or things to look for? Yeah, because in the beginning, they let you feel very comfortable, you know? And then they start to make you feel insecure about yourself. Without saying, they don't say you are less or not, you know? They just make, it's like they point things in other people that they are actually talking about you, but they pretend they're not. And then, oh honey, I'm almost a psychologist. Like I look and I'm like, hmm, okay. And then I start bringing shit over for themselves to think. So you mean like they'll point something out in someone in a room? Yeah, that like relates to you or is like what you don't have? Or just say like, you see that's so bad. Oh my god, kind of like to guide you how to not be. Are you usually the one breaking up with people or they, yeah. Oh yeah, I need that to change though. I think that's why I'm waiting so much. I went thanks to be different. Got it. What is like a deal breaker for you in a relationship? When I feel suffocated, I don't like that. Or when I think when I feel suffocated is the number one thing. Like when the guy doesn't let you breathe and like jealousy for no reason, you know, like to my or needy. Like I'm easy. I want to talk to you like 24/7. Come on, give me a break. Give me a time to breathe. Right. There's nothing more like unattractive, which I get it we're all insecure, but being a relationship with someone that's so insecure about you in the relationship, it's like such a turn off. You're like, can you just like get into therapy, muster the courage when the guy tries his selfish? He tries to say his doing things for you, but he's actually doing for him. He doesn't want to be alone. He is needy. He doesn't want to stand with himself alone, but he says that, oh no, I'm doing this for you. Come on, you're not. I want to be fucking alone. Yeah. For a little time. Can you give advice to women listening that are like, okay, wait, Anita, you have not been with someone. You're not hooking up with people. Like how are you so comfortable being alone? So everything started and I hope people don't need that to change lives when I got sick. That was like, when I wasn't bad thinking I was gonna die, I started to look over all the things with my life. And I started to see all the things that I didn't want to repeat again. It's not that I don't want to have sex with people in the world, please God, I'm down. I'm open. I'm free tonight. I'm just saying that I'm rethinking the reason why I used to do things and how I was doing things. And I want to do differently. I don't want to have sex with a guy because I want him to fall in love for me or because I don't want to lose him. I want to have sex because I feel like doing it because I feel like this guy deserves the queen going to, you know, I don't know. And before I didn't use to like staying by myself, I used to just like need friends every time in my house, friends, every time I needed people. Yup. And now I don't need no, but I can be alone like this for days, you know? Cook my own food and be like, life is beautiful. I'm just here chilling. And I feel like we need to ask ourselves, why are we scared of the silence? What is inside of us that we don't want to listen to, you know, what we don't like about ourselves that we don't want to face it? I'm not saying I regret the thousands of people I fucked. I'm just saying right now, I don't feel like. Maybe next month, I feel like fucking thousands of people again. Just now I just feel like, come on, not right now. I remember I went through almost, this is I've never said this, I almost went an entire year in my 20s where I did not have sex. And I was like totally happy. I'm so happy. Like it was like just like a reclaiming moment for myself of like, I need to just figure my own shit out. And I don't need any penis getting in the vicinity of me while I try to figure it out. I kind of want, but it needs to be a great penis. It needs to be a penis plus a brain plus a tongue plus so many things, you know, it needs to be like a mix. 'Cause it's a lot of work to have sex. For me, it's a lot of work. I like to put a show on. Oh, you do. Can you give us some tips Anita? Like if the girls are like, what do you mean put a show on? Like give us some tips. Like what can I like to enjoy myself? I like to feel like I'm like dancing and performing. Is it a deal breaker for you if a guy is not good at like eating you out? I teach. I love you. I would teach. I would say, come on. Let me say something. Do this, do that. I don't like when they go like this. Like they put the tongue very hard and they go like, and it's like you go like, ah, right. Oh my god. I don't like that. Right, it's just like a little like slithering and you're like, it's so bad. I would this day, these days. Oh, by the way, I didn't have sex with guys this whole time with girls I did have. So I was teaching this friend of mine how to eat a pussy these days. And she was like, oh, it's that easy and I was like, yeah, I came in three minutes. She came in too. You were practicing on each other? Yeah. And you're just friends. Yeah. There was no like sexual connection. Oh, no. I was just teaching her. She just like took off your pants. Like, here's my vagina. Let me teach you. Uh-huh. Fuck. Okay. Like we need some tips. It without taking off your pants and us doing it, do you have any like one specific thing that you can adjust for the men or women listening that could maybe just like help achieve more organizing? I will say, first of all, for girls, for whatever guys girls to eat girls, personally, I think it's kind of different for each girl. I don't know. The things I like can be different from the things. Yep. Other girls like me personally, when I'm doing that with a girl, I go nice and slow. I do circles and then I just do up and down and I do side by side, but like slow and wet. And not like you're eating a pasta and just like you are an ice cream that it's cold and you cannot freeze your tongue if you go, uh, you're going to freeze your tongue. You're going to feel like ice cold. And yeah, I just go nice and slow, and then I put a finger on it, and I don't put the finger on it like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you know, I just put it like nice and slow, small movement, and like just smooth, you know, and then like I don't go in the crazy side by side, I'm like, I just go in a smooth, keep going with the flow, you know, and the girl is kind of gonna guide you, and then you can just put the finger in the beginning of the entry of the vagina, you don't need to go all the way down there, and it's not because the woman's squirt that she came, there was this guy, he made me squirt like 20 times, and I was not coming, I was like, this doesn't mean something's happening, it's men that are obsessed with getting a woman to squirt, let me, look at me in the eyes of this camera, stop, the next day it hurts, oh, it hurts so bad, come on, I think sometimes men forget like, would you want us like Jack hammering your dick, no, you like when it's like very wet, and like, you don't need it to be like let's fuck her and go, imagine we did that also dry, you would have rug burn, same for us, okay, same for us, there is also like with guys, what I do, I'm gonna try to give an example, I always use oil when I can, when the guy is not full of like, some guys are like, oh, you're using that I love I love using lubricant love it and some guys think it's because they're not doing a good job. Shut the fuck up. It's just more pleasing. Yes, you use lubricant. I put the lubricant. I'm gonna teach you when you spot it. Okay, here we go. I put the lubricant and then I go like this. First of all, I go like this and then this is one movement. And then you're gonna do something. There's something you can do that. They are not gonna understand what you're doing. You could tell him to close his eyes. You're gonna do this. You're gonna hold here in the bottom and you're gonna do this. With the hands like this, you go down and circle, down and circle, down and circle. And then you go up and down, up and you do this, but up and down, up and down and you do this, don't, don't, don't. He's gonna be like, what is happening? But you should put lubricant on it. But you go like this, don't do this. It's like go up and down, don't, don't let it go. Just open up and down and you do this, open and close, open and close. Because then you're gonna switch the pressure on it and you're gonna be like, what is she doing though? But you gotta put lubricant on it. Right, so you're kind of like massaging down past their tip and then around their shaft while you're holding the base. Yeah, like this. Oh, that's magical. And then they get super confused. Because it feels like a blow job, but it's not. And then for the blow job, I like using things that you're putting your teeth to fix it, plastic. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the, in the line. Kind of, there's a bunch of brands. Yeah. If you use the one down, just the one down, life changing. Really? Because it feels like you don't have teeth. I need a, it feels like you don't have teeth. I just, you can try. I just added that to my Amazon cart while you were speaking. You can ask them, wow, they're gonna feel like you don't have teeth and just on the bottom. Because it's gonna touch the, yeah, because it's on the up too, it's gonna look weird. But if you've used only on the bottom, they're gonna feel like you don't have teeth because you can touch as much as you want with this teeth here, because it's not like aggressive. It's like smooth as a plastic. This is an educational podcast today. But this is bad, they don't like it. Like the brand of the dentists, they, they will try to kill me. They're gonna say I'm built bullshit 'cause I try to say that in Brazil. Wow, they are, they wanted to kill me. We, I feel like they would love it. Your, the sales are gonna kill me. No, no, no, that's not the purpose. This is health for people to take care of this. Right, while you're sucking dick, you're also aligning your teeth. You're, you're, but people don't want to know about that. They don't do blow jobs. They just, we're born from pure sans spirit that came and this is all good. Well, everyone is virgin. Today, I am, I am claiming that this is a great technique and you can be fixing your teeth while sucking dick. Nothing better. I wouldn't say that I'm not a dentist. I'm just saying if you want to try, you try. If no, it's okay. Totally. If you already have one, pop it in. See how dentists hate me because they said that in, in Brazil, they hate dentists. They do because I said it's good when you use it, but they hate it. They don't like that I said it. They're the virgin dentists. They need to fucking relax. Have you ever been cheated on once when I was 19, 18? So how did you find out? Oh my god, online. A fan, a fan told me. No. Oh, but twice. I was twice. Once was a fan told me. Second one, I pretended it was a fan because I actually dreamed about it. I dreamed about about a lot of things that actually happened. So there was this one time I went to sleep. This boy, I landed my car to him. He didn't have a car, and my car to him. I was already a singer. I was performing somewhere else. He went to the place. And when I went to sleep, I literally went to, like in my dream, I went to the club he was. I saw him kissing the girl. He was wearing blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. The girl was wearing ta-da-da-da-da. And it was so clear to me. And I know I have these type of dreams. So I didn't tell him I dreamed. I said, hi, a fan took a picture and sent me. You were with this girl. You were wearing blah, blah, blah. She was wearing blah, blah, blah. And then he was desperate. It's saying, yeah, I'm sorry, blah, blah, blah, blah. After months, I told him I dreamed it. Have you ever got caught cheating? No. I'm so smart. [LAUGHTER] I am so smart. How do you feel about sex on the first date? I don't care. Yeah. If I feel like I do, you just be yourself. And if he likes you, amazing. If he does, and it's because he's an asshole and-- Not that he's an asshole, it doesn't match you. And you just want him because of-- you think you need him for something, but you don't. I love that advice. It's like, if you're going with yourself, who gives a fuck? If they-- if you don't care. It doesn't matter. There was this one guy I went on a date, and I ended up not happening anymore. I was like, he doesn't want me, blah, blah, blah. And then after two weeks, when I was like better with my therapy on the endpoint. And I was like, what the fuck I was doing with that guy? He makes snow, so he kisses terribly. His kiss? I was like, where the fuck did this guy learn to kiss? It was like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. It was the terrible kiss. The sex would be even worse. Why I was caring so much. It was just our fear of being rejected. It has nothing to do with the guy. We don't even care about the fucking guy. So true. It has nothing to do with the fucking person. The person sometimes is shitty. And we are concerned just because we don't want to feel rejected. I also think a good bit of advice is pretend in your head. Imagine if they were obsessed with you and they wouldn't stop hitting you up. Then now assess, would you actually like them? Like if you're coming from a place of like, they don't like me. I want them to like, that's just the chase and we get a ticket. No, and then he texted me and I was like, no, thank you. Like you kiss like a frog. I was like, no, today I have my mind so in point. No, thanks. Some people, you just go with them because your mind is not on point, right? And then you wake up one day and it's like, Alina, what the fuck? What I was doing with that person? It's so crazy too when you look back and you're like, I can't believe I was fucking obsessed with that guy. Fucking sucked. Yeah, sometimes you just need to like step away from it. How do you feel about sharing nudes? I don't do that. You don't. No. Is it just because you're nervous because like you're celebrity? Before yes, nowadays I just think it's, new, I think it's more sexy when you're wearing like panties or something that is almost showing, but it doesn't show, I think it's more sexy. Plays more with the imagination to be honest. I love that. We're like having a hand on it, you know? It's more, even a picture of a dick. It's not beautiful. Come on. Getting a picture of a dick? Let's be honest. It's not gonna be honest. It's not great. You're like, oh, there it is. I see that guy naked like, it's not hot. That's not hot. What are you responding if a guy sends you a dick pic? I'd be like, I said emoji or something. I don't know. I'm like, that's not it. I don't know. I don't feel anything over that. What emoji? With the eyes. Well, these two eyes that look like, that's it. It kind of doesn't say anything. It's just not to leave the guy on the right. I kind of love it though, because then it could make him a little insecure of like, we, hello? And you're like, that's what we got. That's what we got. Do you like sexting? Sex, what? Sexing, like texting, sexting. No, no, me either. All these things for me are just not-- I like the real thing. Come on. Come here. Let's-- Yes. Not the sex, sex. I like the little horny talk. But not the sex, like, I'm going to put my dick put in your pussy and bang it 20 times. I don't like that. I like the little horny thing, you know? What intimidates you in the bedroom? What intimidates me? A huge insanely huge dick trying to put it on my ass? That's very intimidating. When a dick is like huge, it's so scary. And it's trying to go in your butt hall. It's kind of not good. Because you're so scared. This one guy saw, I was like, OK, I think I'm going to try here. And then his dick was so big, so big. And I was like, listen, I'm scared. I then he said, "Why?" And then he said, this is something I don't think I can handle it right now. At this moment of my life, I cannot handle it as I think. Check back with me in a couple months and then we just talked and cuddled and it was it. Have you ever had a threesome? Oh so many times. Do you enjoy them? I do. I think it's cool. I like it. I think it's more, but you have to be very aligned with everyone. You know, and yeah, I have threesome, four, six, I had a boyfriend that used to like to like switch couples and all. Do you like the swapping thing? Yeah. Did you like it? Yeah. He was very comfortable and the people, he always let me pick and it was just fun. It was very cool and respectful and fun. Did you ever get jealous? Oh no. I'm not a jealous person. I'm jealous if I don't feel respected. If I don't feel respected, I'm very, I get, not even jealous I get angry. I think that people that want to potentially do three sums or four sums or orgies or whatever, like I think you need to know yourself before you do that. If you're a jealous person, don't fucking do that. Know yourself. Sometimes people I think do it for their partner. And it's like, if you know your relationship, don't do it just because you think he or she wants to do it. Yeah, that's a big issue to be honest. I don't, yeah, I think you need to be very friends with your partner to make sure he also, there's this one time and three sums also with guys, but he wouldn't be with a guy just me. And he was super comfortable with that. He picked it and it was cool. I liked it, to be honest, but he let me feel, feel free with that. Do you like to use toys in the bedroom? I do. The guy got to be confident though, I know, but I do, me too. And that's why I, I did my line of a perfume, like when I did that, it was more about like, I was doing concerts. And obviously I'm performing for like two hours and carnival is like four hours performing on stop, even seven hours have done. And when you finish, you don't smell good, so let's just have a real talk. A butthole smells like butthole. If you go any end of the day, you put your finger in a butthole and you smell it. It smells like butthole. It's a place that is there inside locked in the dark, warm, hot, doing this. The whole date. This is going to sweat. It's like under your arms, there's no way you're going to sweat, you're going to smell. It's there inside of your whole clothes. So I was like, I don't like, I'm obsessed with smell, right? I was like, I don't like smelling like sweat in my butthole. And then a friend of mine told me, oh, I'm going to do something for you. And she did this perfume and I used it. And it was like, I was smelling great, even if I went to the Soda Desert and I did a music video there. It was like 42 degrees Celsius. And it was so hot. I was wearing like a jumpsuit of plastic. I was sweating like crazy and I was still smelling good. I was like, you know what? I'm going to make this like professional. And then I did it and you just smell amazing. You're pussy in your butthole smell great the whole time. And then I give it to the guys that I'm with and they put in their balls and the dick and their butts too. They smell great. For me, it's such a like, a turn on. I love it. After I got this product, something I always done was like, forget, oh my God, my accident, my panties at the place. They smell so good. And smells insanely good, like strawberry or whatever, cotton candy. And this guy obviously when you leave guys, pay attention, he will smell the panties. He will smell the panties. He wants to know. And then he will smell the part that your butthole is on it and it's not going to smell like butthole. And it is just heaven, they always come back Anita, you're giving us everything we need today. Okay. There's so few people that you can just like have an open conversation like this, talk about your sexuality, your sex life. What do you want people to know about you as an artist and an individual if they're watching today and they're like new fans like, what would you want to say? I would say definitely what I said here, like, I think I'm an artist that fights against hypocrisy, you know, that's the artist I like to be about everything, not only sex, but I bring up subjects which is like talk about my plastic surgeries, talk about sex, talk about poop, talk about things that we all do. And for some reason we live our lives pretending we don't, you know, and I don't understand what's the type of insecurities or, I don't know, that make people live in this fake world that just pretend life is this 24/7 glam. Knowing more about you now and knowing how hands on you are with your craft, like you are running the show, you're your own manager, you do everything, I really respect you. And I cannot wait to see what you do next and I can't wait for the new album and all the things. You deserve all of it. Thank you so much for coming on. Thank you, I loved it, I felt really at home, I hope you like it and I loved meeting you. You have great energy. You do too, love you.
