About this person
Maria da Graça Meneghel was born on 27 March 1963 and adopted the stage name that would become synonymous with Latin American childhood. She built her kingdom on television, hosting programs that turned her into "The Queen of Children" and anchored the largest kids' entertainment operation south of the border. By the early 1990s she was worth an estimated $100 million, moving between continents and languages while her albums - somewhere between 30 and 50 million copies sold, with Som Livre certifying over 28 million in Brazil alone - played in living rooms across the hemisphere. The business grew with the fame: today her net worth sits around $400 million, a figure unmatched by any other Brazilian woman in entertainment, and her catalog has racked up 10 billion streams.
