Elisa Veeck remembers behind the scenes of “Chiquititas”: “Beds smaller than us”

The anchor of Live CNN Elisa Veeck 37, played the character Fran in the first version of “Chiquititas”, on SBT, between 1997 and 2001 and was specially invited to remember the iconic moments of the children’s soap opera, during the recording of a special program, which airs on Sunday (15). At the event, the journalist revealed some unprecedented behind-the-scenes from the time.

“When we arrived on set, in the girls’ rooms, we tried to see if we could fit in the beds because television is different. You don’t make a 2 meter bed, you make a 1.5 meter one. So some were bigger, so we had to shrink the leg, but we pretended it fit”, he had fun.

In the special program “Geração Chiquititas”, Elisa can meet several of her castmates, such as Aretha Oliveira, Felipe Chammas, Pierre Bittencourt Fernanda Souza and other actresses from the first generation of the soap opera. She also revealed the feeling of the reunion.

“It’s like we’re at a school reunion and everyone in first grade is meeting again,” he said. “I hadn’t seen Fernanda Souza for a long time, maybe eight years. And we start to meet again and always have wonderful memories and, at the same time, others I talk about through the WhatsApp group we have. We talk from time to time, sometimes someone finds a photo of the old ones and sends it there and everyone comments. There are always those who have more memories and those who remember less. We don’t remember as much as the boys, Felipe Chammas and Pierre Bittencourt”, explained Veeck.

Elisa formed a romantic partner with actor Jonatas Faro (Samuca), with whom she recorded the video for “Penso em Ti”, and also a love triangle with Bruno Gagliasso (Rodrigo) and Yuri Xavier (Yuri), with whom she recorded the “Bird” clip. If she were to choose which one would be her favorite, the journalist would have no doubts:

“They were all very beautiful, at different times. Their recording was fantastic because the ‘Penso em Ti’ that I recorded with Jonatas Faro was in Paraty, and the one I recorded with Bruno Gagliasso, ‘Passarinho’, was in Fernando de Noronha”, he recalled. “But ‘Penso em Ti’ was very striking and special. I have many memories of that day, of everyone on a distant beach, arriving by boat and staying with the team all day, it was very special”, he said in an interview with +SBT.

The new version of “Chiquititas”, released in 2013, did not have the character Fran, which leaves this character exclusively to Elisa. “I discovered that there wasn’t going to be Fran in the new season and we gradually discovered and saw how children would now react to having this product, ‘Chiquititas’, which in our childhood was a phenomenon”, he said.

“Geração Chiquititas” will be shown on SBT this Sunday (15), in streaming, on the +Novelas channel, at 8 pm, and on TV, after the Silvio Santos Program.
