Adele Fátima

Adele Fátima (born 17 February 1954) is a Brazilian actress, model and dancer. She was one of Brazil's main sex symbols, especially in the 1970s and was a key figure in the sexploitation film genre known as Pornochanchada in Brazil in the 1970s.^[1]

In 1972, sponsored by Augusto César Vanucci, Adele became part of the casting of the Globo TV network, and, from there she started her career in comedy cameos. In 1973, she started acting in movies, and began her film career. In 1978, Adele was noted after her appearance in an advertisement, where she danced in a bikini.^[2] After this, she was invited by Albert Broccoli to play the role of a Brazilian girl in the film Moonraker from the James Bond series. Although her name and photo appeared in the film's credits and its publicity, she was replaced by Emily Bolton and the scenes in which she appeared were cut from the final edition.^[3] In 1979, she played the protagonist Clara das Neves in Stories That Our Babysitters Didn't Tell, a sensual parody of the story of Snow White. The film was a public success in Brazilian cinema and also on television, being shown constantly in the night sessions of SBT in the 1980s. The same year, she played a lead role in the film Histórias que nossas babás não contavam (Stories that our nannies didn't tell), a satire of the classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It is considered one of the most emblematic film of the pornochanchada genre.^[4] A major milestone in Adele's career happened in 1988 after her appearance in a commercial for the canned sardine, Sardinhas 88, which featured the number 88 stamped at the back of her bikini thong.^[5]
