Íris Stefanelli is a beautiful reality star and reporter from Brazil who got famous while appearing in Big Brother Brazil and Big Brother Argentina. She is a beautiful, determined, ardent and ambitious girl who is passionate about life.

Íris Stefanelli, please talk about yourself.
I am a determined person that’s focused on my goals and dreams that I have in life. I fight for what I believe. I try to be a good person, but not too silly! I’m romantic, but grounded. I love my family, my friends and my work. I am a cheerful, high-spirited person and very passionate about life!

What would you like to be doing five years from now? What are your goals in the long run? How are you preparing yourself to achieve them?
My biggest dream is currently to be a TV hostess. Throughout the last few years, both as a host and as a reporter for TV Fama, I learned a lot and I can say I´m ready for a new professional challenge. Maybe it can come true in the near future! God willing, it will! I want to continue growing professionally, gaining more experience and venturing into new opportunities.

What rewards do you expect to have in your career? What motivates you?
The greatest reward is to know that I’m doing my job well and that people are enjoying it. So that’s what I hope for my career, that my work is well regarded and that people enjoy it. What motivates me is knowing that, so far, I’m having a very positive feedback, not only from professionals who work with me, but the public who watch the show and my subjects.

Tell me what has changed in your life after the Big Brother Brazil and Argentina? These reality shows have greatly changed your life? In what’s way exactly? What were your achievements?
Everything has changed! With my involvement in both realities, I was able to get great opportunities in events and advertising, besides my current position at TV Fama ( RedeTV! ). I reached my financial independence and, thus, I was able to provide a better life for my family. Not to mention the warmth of the people and all the fans I made. So many good things, so many positive changes, I just have to thank the opportunity and everyone’s love!

Who is your inspiration and why?
My parents are my real inspiration. Not only the story of their lives, but the way they have handed with everything and everyone. They are warriors, fighters and humble above all else. Treat everyone equally, with honesty! I take all of this into my life. I had and still have a great education, which I base my actions and decisions.

What do you do in your spare time?
I take the opportunity to take care of my health, walking in the park and going to a fitness club. I go to the beauty salon to improve my visual and also I take the opportunity to enjoy friends and family, to go to parties and travels.

Let’s talk about fashion too. Describe your style. What kind of clothes you wear most?
My style is high-low, merging sophisticated pieces with other popular ones. Also I try to use classic clothes that stand out for elegance and sophistication. Despite having an eclectic taste, I try using pieces that fit my style, that make me feel good!

Who or what inspires you in terms of fashion?
I do not have someone to inspire me. I am always in tune with what is trendy, going to events and fashion shows, as well as checking the fashion blogs. This all is the basis for choosing an outfit when purchasing and the appropriate time to use them in the recordings and events.

How much time per day do you spend getting ready?
I like to dress well, so I usually spend a good time to choose the right clothes. Though, I spend more time when productions occur or when I have an event. How will I appear in photos and on television must be just right! For routine activities, it takes me less time.

Is there any particular piece of clothing would you say is your signature?
It’s my purses.

What do you always take along with you?
I take my purse and my phone.

What is your favorite fashion store? Who is your favorite designer?
I do not have a favorite store, I have a very diverse taste and this is independent of store or brand. I like Martha Medeiros, Reinaldo Lourenço, Patricia Bonaldi and Lethicia Bronstein, who made a beautiful lace dress for me to wear on my birthday party last year in Uberlândia ( MG ) .

You also have your own brand, Sirizinha a children’s clothing line. How / when that brand was launched? Please tell us about it.
That’s it. The Sirizinha was created by the advertiser Rogerio Martins, who made Senninha, a children’s cartoon based on the character of Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna. I learned of the project soon after the end of Big Brother Brazil, and months later, we launched the character to the fans and to the media. In the same year, I produced children’s clothing with the brand, which were sold in stores in São Paulo.
