Importance of image of Skin It is defined by his sporting experience and his role as a model athlete. Among other things, the Brazilian was an ambassador to the United Nations, a full-time member of the FIFA Fair Play Committee, and one of FIFA’s governing bodies. a very important hundred of the century according to the magazine Time. But it is also said that he was a philosopher, a lover of wealth, a fraud, a bad father, a thief and the worst among the worst. “We are talking about a man who, at the age of seventy, received fifteen million a year in image rights alone, who refused to participate in commercials that did not pay him, at least, one million euros unless he wanted to. available for two days only to film and take pictures, and that this can be used for six months (…) The thing that, according to the portal Celebrity Net Worthwhen he looked at the ATM that was on the ATM, it read one hundred million dollars, not counting stocks, shares and sales. In short, for a man like this to sue Brazil, which is a country with other poverty problems, to take the pension money he has retired from, is disgusting! reporters Malcolm Otero and Santi Giménez in his latest book, More than ever (Ediciones B), where the dark side of many famous and revered names is illuminated with humor and anger.
The same player who introduced the name of a great team like Santos to the world participated in the brutal repression of General Emilio Garrastazu Médici, who ordered the torture and killing of government opponents. In 1969, the Brazilian coach was Joâo Saldanha, the famous coach of Garrincha and Botafogo of Amarildo. Saldanha was a member of the Brazilian Communist Party, but it seems that his popularity protected him. Even so, he was forced to resign after appearing in Mexico to attend the 1970 World Cup and volunteering to distribute among international authorities a dossier with the names of thousands of political prisoners and hundreds killed and tortured by the Medici.
Instead of washing his hands, Pelé joined the dictator. On the eve of his death, he defended himself by saying that he was ignorant of politics. “They invited me and I went, I have never had a problem with any government,” he replied when he was criticized for many pictures of him with the dictator. Precisely because of his political position, the player was hated by some of his friends, especially blacks.
A private life without precedent
“In the last years of his career, after the dictatorship was overthrown, Pelé declared himself an anti-separatist and anti-socialist in Brazil,” the article recalls. “But Pelé did not have any ideas. A year after declaring himself a socialist, he accepted to be the Minister of Sports in the Government of the right wing of Fernando Henrique Cardoso. Then he left him and, at the end of his life, “he said. he was a staunch defender of Jair Bolsonaro, who on Black Consciousness Day gave him a dedicated t-shirt that he wore while playing for Santos. “

Another thing that his biographers ignore is that Pelé resigned as sports minister when he was involved in a series of frauds, accused of benefiting the Government from his company Pelé Sports and Marketing – based in a tax haven in the Virgin Islands. avoid taxes in Brazil. The most embarrassing thing was when the newspaper Folha de São Paulo showed that in 1995 the company received $700,000 for a charity event in favor of Unicef
To no one’s surprise, the Brazilian has not shown any positive behavior in his private life. Of the eight children he had, four were the result of his relationship Rosemary Cholbihis first wife, and two of those he had with his second wife, Assyrian Lemos (after, according to his version, wearing a vasectomy). He also had two churumbeles out of wedlock which he refused to admit until the judges forced him to do so.
When he was 75, he married a Brazilian Japanese businesswoman for the third time. Marcia Cibele Aoki, who was much younger than him. He soon received a complaint from his second wife for non-payment of child support and was accused by his two nephews of “abandoning them intellectually, morally and physically.”
Many comments
Another beauty of a person that is not missing from the pages of this book is Silvio Berlusconi, Four times Italian Prime Minister, MEP, current President of the European Council, owner of Mediaset and one of the three richest people in Italy. “He started Trumpism before he became president; he was corrupt, insulting men, bought more judges than football players, made laws to suit him and showed us that, without distractions, you win well,” the authors wrote about the guy who in 2012 did not qualify for tax fraud, which means he would not stand for election until January 2019.
To talk about Berlusconi is to talk about a seducer with a loose fly who, at the age of 29, got married. Carla Elvira Lucia Dall’Oglio and had two children: Maria Elvira and Pier Silvio. In 1980 he was attracted to the actress Veronica Lario, who gave him an apartment at the headquarters of his company Fininvest until 1985, when they broke up. The Italian married him in 1990 – his godfather was the Socialist Bettino Craxi – and they had three children together, but they separated in 2009, the day the destruction ended in parties with small prostitutes and cocaine that Il Cavaliere organized in the Villa Certosa. (Sardinia) and Villa San Martino (Arcore). “Lario asked for a monthly payment of 3 million, which was later reduced to 1.4,” he explains. More than ever. “In the end, a judge who was very close to Berlusconi canceled the pension and forced Lario to return seventy million, but, in an out-of-court agreement, they agreed not to return anything in exchange. He also received two wives, one born in 1985 and the other in 1990. The last he was fifty-four years old.
Otero and Giménez also provide a good review of respectable figures such as Elizabeth II of England, who describes him as a robotic and cold king who “ran for many years, from the shadows, different governments for the benefit of his family” – a very rich family that until 1993 did not pay taxes – and who was indifferent to his death. daughter-in-law Diana of Wales – not in vain, she opposed the state funeral of the mother of Prince William, who was divorced at the time, was no longer the royal monarch, and also held an interview where she exposed Charles of England. unfaithfulness.
Likewise, it has been repeated ad nauseam that the late queen is always out of politics, when this is simply not true. “There is something called the Queen’s Consent,” the authors explain in this regard. “It established that laws that could affect the palace, before being brought to the Parliament, are presented to the queen, who can approve them, change them or ban them. More than 1,060 laws were changed by this method, according to ‘The Guardian’ (…) Since the issues it intervened in are many. that the Animal Protection Act, in which, ironically, the deer are removed from the royal estate, for fear that anyone will go to Balmoral to see the state of the deer or to reduce their hunting; How is it related to fishing? Well, Balmoral lends its rivers to fishing and to get to know one of the best fishing spots in the United Kingdom.”
Bonus track
If the collection of legends and references was limited, the authors wanted to give the readers a bonus track and rincluding unpublished letters which he has never spoken on the radio – this book and a previous book, called El club de los execrables, are part of their segment on RAC 1 radio. One of these famous people is Pope Francisco who has been leading an organization that hates homosexuals for years more and has hidden the private parts of its members.

According to journalist Horacio Verbitsky in his investigative book The Silence, Bergoglio, the pope could have cooperated in the abduction of the two priests or favored them by denying them protection. “The origin of the conflict is that, apparently, Bergoglio became known and had an argument with the two priests,” say Otero and Giménez. “Being their superior in the Society of Jesus, the pope who was now opposing their work in a place of doubt and that was interpreted by the soldiers as a sign that their superior is removing their organizational protection.” That’s when they were kidnapped and locked up in ESMA, an underground prison.
It doesn’t go away from a good review. Frank Sinatraa wise man who in his youth was a loose noise. At the beginning of his career he was active against apartheid but in 1965, referring to civil rights protests in the United States, he said that “black people should stop complaining and start working.” In fact, the singer was a seasoned politician.
“It is true that he was a Democratic defender and supported Roosevelt and Kennedy; and, in 1970, he joined the Republican Party,” the authors explain. “His relationship with Kennedy was a different matter. Sinatra helped to raise money for the party and was a strong defender of the party. However, when Sinatra wanted to hire Albert Malz, one of the film writers who refused to testify before the Committee on Un-American Activities, and this angered Kennedy, Sinatra did not hire him. On the other hand, the man known as The Voice reacted violently when he was harassed by reporters or photographers, got into trouble with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) when he was accused of tax evasion, and in 1951 he was arrested for adultery in connection with However, it should be noted that although it is true that the American had relations with several people connected to the notorious gang, the police spent many years investigating him and could not find evidence of a single crime.
