Accused of lacking values, Teresa Guilherme finally clarifies the controversial phrase “Those who have morals go hungry” – Nacional

several years ago, Teresa Guilherme sparked controversy with the phrase “Those who have morals go hungry.”. At that time everything was going well in the country. We had emerged from Expo 98 with flying colours, and Euro 2004 was on the horizon. Hey Money spoke louder than questions of morality. This was an idea that silently permeated society. Teresa Guilherme just amplified it.

but Could this be the broadcaster’s true intention? When did you say those words, in 2001? This phrase was mentioned in the “Alta Definição” on Saturday the 9th of this month.

“I’m sorry to say that”Those who have morals starve“?”asked Daniel Oliveira.“I didn’t say that, you motherfucker.”Theresa Guilherme responded, clarifying the context of the phrase.

“A journalist from Público – I met him later – came to my office. I always took a lunch box. I had little time, he went to interview me and I ate. In the end, I had Lourdes [empregada] He sent me some beautiful strawberries and I asked him: “You didn’t have lunch, wouldn’t you like some strawberries?”. it is him [respondeu]: “No, no, it’s an ethical issue. I won’t do that. I’ll give an interview.”. Well, it happened…”, he began to describe.

“Meanwhile, I walked him to the door, which I shouldn’t have done, and said, ‘You’re hungry.’ And he said, ‘Actually, I’m hungry.’ And the interview was already over. “Well, you should have accepted those strawberries.”. and say: “No, I couldn’t”. And me: “Well, those who have morals go hungry.”. It was about strawberries, not about those with morals going hungryIf I wasn’t the fattest girl, because I had a lot of morals. But unfortunately, ethics are outdatedHe explained.

“Whether it was ethical? No, because it was not recorded, it was not during the interview and I actually had this conversation with him. At that time I called him several names on the phone, I probably don’t remember anymore, “but I called him, I called him. Then I met him at least once in my life and we had this conversation. (…) It was because of his lack of morals,” said Teresa Guilherme.
