The personal trainer and model Frazão Solange decided not to parade by any school of samba during Carnival 2010. The decision came because she considers the production of associations very disorganized.

In an interview with columnist Odair Del Pozzo (Portal Terra), she said she was already in tears because of this. “I came to cry during the parade on behalf of so much clutter,” said the girl.

Solange is not sad because she chose to celebrate the date of the carnival with her boyfriend, the young Luiz Balcers, with whom she will be in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Salvador.
