Gracyanne Barbosa has officially exited the legendary Brazilian reality series, Big Brother Brasil 25, following a tense voting result on March 18, 2025. The fitness muse was the 11th participant eliminated from the show, receiving a significant 51.38% of the public votes against her fellow housemates, Eva and Daniele Hypolito.
At 42 years old, Gracyanne hails from Campo Grande in Mato Grosso do Sul. She has built a reputation as a businesswoman, fitness model, and ex-dancer for the prominent group Tchakabum, where she gained initial fame. Known for her strong social media presence, boasting around 12 million followers, Gracyanne has shared her rigorous workout routines and healthy lifestyle tips, captivating an audience eager for inspiration.
The elimination came after one of the season's most intense voting sessions, which saw over 119 million votes cast by fans of the show. Alongside Gracyanne, Eva received 43.6% of the votes while Daniele trailed with only 5.02%. Gracyanne was nominated for elimination by the house leader, Guilherme, which set the stage for a competitive departure amidst high emotions and significant viewer engagement.
In the lead-up to her elimination, the show's dynamics were heavily influenced by playful strategies and interpersonal relationships among the housemates. During this cycle, Eva emerged as the most voted participant for eviction, following a tactical nomination process set by the contestants, wherein Daniele and Joselma tied in votes. This led Guilherme to make the final call, opting for Daniele, which ultimately shifted the voting focus toward Gracyanne.
Reflecting on her time in the house during a post-elimination chat, Gracyanne expressed her feelings candidly, stating, "I'm very happy. Obviously, I wanted to stay in the house and reach the final, but God knows all things." Her sentiment touched on her journey through the highs and lows of reality show life, enumerating her internal conflicts and the moments of vulnerability she exposed to viewers.
During the elimination night, Tadeu Schmidt, the show’s presenter, elaborated on the significance of competing on BBB, saying, "BBB is different for everyone. But you know what to do. You have to step out of your comfort zone and expose yourself. That's how you manage to do what you've done all your lives." His commentary resonated deeply with Gracyanne’s journey, emphasizing the personal growth and challenges faced by participants.
Gracyanne’s departure marks a significant moment in the season, as she was once considered a strong contender for the grand prize. Her presence was not just defined by her fitness journey but also by personal trials, including her well-documented 16-year relationship with singer Belo, which had concluded a year prior to her entering the house.
The effects of her elimination will undoubtedly ripple through the remaining contestants. The dynamics within the house will shift as personal alliances are tested. With 12 participants remaining and the inevitable formation of new alliances looming, audiences are left to wonder how the elimination will influence future gameplay.
Looking ahead, fans can anticipate another round of intense competition as the next elimination block is set to form on March 23. The upcoming challenges promise to be characterized by strategic plays and emotionally charged confrontations as contestants vie for their place in the race for the title.
As Gracyanne exits the stage of the Big Brother Brasil, her journey echoes a truth about reality television: the blend of personal struggle, public scrutiny, and social interaction can create a compelling narrative that entertains and inspires millions. Whether the audience will continue rallying behind remaining contestants or adjusting their favorites is yet to unfold. For now, Gracyanne Barbosa leaves the house, but her story in the Brazilian fitness community and in the hearts of her fans remains firmly intact.
