Early Life
Larissa de Macedo Machado aka Anitta (born 30 March 1993). Anitta was born and brought up in the Honório Gurgel neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, a place having one of the city’s lowest HDIs; she is the youngest daughter of Miriam Macedo and Mauro Machado; her brother Renan Machado currently functions as one of her song producers and oversees her career. Larissa grew up in a low-income family with divorced parents, with her mother getting custody.

Education
She began taking English classes at the age of 11. She was already interested in pursuing an academic career and above-average ability. Her mother’s teacher later offered her free dance lessons.
After graduating from one of the country’s most famous public schools, the Dom Pedro II School, she completed a technical course in public administration while in high school.
Career
She began her singing career at the age of eight, when, at the request of her maternal grandparents, she joined the choir of the Santa Luzia’s Parish in her neighborhood.
Anitta’s professional singing career began in 2010 when she was introduced to funk carioca producer Renato Azevedo (aka Batutinha).
He had watched some of her home videos on YouTube and invited her to record some demo recordings for him. After being cleared, she was selected to sign a deal with Furaco 2000, an independent and specialized funk label.
Sometime later, she published her first single, “Eu Vou Ficar,” which played to exhaustion on Rio de Janeiro’s local radio stations, and the song was included in the series “Armagedom,” featuring other artists from the musical niche.
Anitta earned a major recording contract with Warner Music Group in January 2013 and released the track Meiga e Abusada. After being included on the telenovela Amor à Vida soundtrack, the song became one of the most requested songs on Brazilian radio stations in early 2013.
Bang, her third studio album, was released in October of 2015. Billboard Brasil named it one of the most anticipated albums of the year.
Discography
Anitta’s music is predominantly pop, funk carioca, funk melody, and Latin pop, with elements of R&B, dance-pop, electronic, EDM, reggae, and reggaeton thrown in for good measure. Her career includes songs in five languages, including Portuguese, Spanish, English, Italian, and French.

She Is Described as a Sex Symbol

When she was elected “Woman of the Year” by the Brazilian edition of GQ magazine in 2017, she made a feminist speech. She was vocal about how different is the treatment for female artists.
