Soccerlens Interviews Alessandra Pinho

Football has always been the beautiful game in Brazil but top flight clubs have found their own unique way of combining soccer with the beauty of women! Each year beauty contests are held by each club with all the winners taking place in a grand final to crown the nation’s Musa do Brasileiro.

2006 Club World Cup winners SC Internacional found a true gem to represent them in last year’s contest. She’s a football fanatic, she adores Internacional following them home and away, she is a fully fledged member of the club — and she happens to be gorgeous too.

SOCCERLENS readers meet the lovely…..Alessandra Pinho!

Place of birth: Montenegro, 50 km away from Porto Alegre, capital of Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil

What did you have to do to become RS Internacional’s female representative for the Musa do Brasileirao?

To enter the competition in the first place it’s vitally important that you truly love football and of course it was imperative that you are a huge fan of Internacional. Luckily, that was me! After seeing all the entrants the club has to choose three Musas to compete for the title.

During the competition I was asked to fulfil several tasks and they included playing football, posing for pictures at the stadium, singing the official club song, commentating on a goal etc.

The club then held an election to choose the winner and that person (which was me!) enters the Musa do Brasileirao which is a contest between a Musa from each club in the Brazilian league.

What was the hardest thing you had to do in the competition and why?

I was away on vacation in Buenos Aires during my school holidays when the organisers of Musa do Brasileirao called me to ask me to film a quick movie. I was in a hotel at the time and couldn’t possibly do it there so I went to the ‘Chocolate Box’ Boca Juniors Stadium and made a video there instead!

But I tell you this, when I had to commentate on a goal during the Internacional competition it was really hard too. I am not a professional!”
