Louro had participated, along with TV presenter Ana Maria Braga, on Mais Voc\u00ea, a show which airs from Monday through Friday on TV Globo.The parrot was more than simply a supporting character: he served as the comic relief of the program by using his witty humor and telling jokes every now and then to lighten the mood, and even purposefully disagreeing with Ana Maria Braga, the hostess, to provoke her. His voice was shrill, mimicking a real parrot.History[edit]Rede Record[edit]Neilton Veiga J\u00fanior,[10] better known as Tom Veiga, was a studio manager and executive producer of the program “Note e Anote\u00a0[pt]” at Rede Record, which was presented by Ana Maria Braga. Before working on the show, he worked as a courier and as an ambulance driver, as well as helping organize events. Veiga met Ana Maria Braga around 1995. He organized artisan craft fairs that Ana Maria Braga would publicize in her show, “Note e Anote”. After being invited to join the team, Veiga became a stage assistant.[11][12]In March 1997, while Ana Maria Braga was stuck in traffic with her then husband, Carlos Madrulha, she told him she “needed a puppet to make a smoother transition”, given that Note e Anote aired right after a children’s show. She and Madrulha discussed possibilities and eventually settled on a parrot, as it is one of the few animals that can talk.[11] The choice for the name was inspired by a real parrot owned by Ana Maria Braga, also called “Louro Jos\u00e9”. The name is a tribute to her father, Natale Giuseppe “Jos\u00e9” Maffeis.[13][14] On March 6, Louro Jos\u00e9 starred on national television.[15] Many people were tried for the role of puppeteer, but no one seemed to fit the part well.[13] Seeing a then 23-year-old Tom Veiga playing with the puppet, Ana Maria Braga temporarily put him in the role.[1] In the first months, Veiga worked as both a stage assistant and puppeteer. When he was made effective as the parrot, he celebrated, saying: “my life has changed completely”.[11]Legal issues[edit]In September 1997, about 6 months after the creation of the puppet, Rede Record attempted to trademark the “Louro Jos\u00e9” brand. However, predicting the puppet’s success, Ana Maria Braga had already registered the brand.[11]The company hired to make the puppet, Display Set, as well as Disney, both also attempted to trademark the Louro Jos\u00e9 brand \u2013 with Disney claiming the puppet was plagiarism, a copy of Jos\u00e9 Carioca. Like Rede Record, they were both unsuccessful and Ana Maria Braga’s trademark was upheld.[16][17]TV Globo[edit]In 1999, Ana Maria and Louro Jos\u00e9 were hired by Globo, becoming a part of the Cem Modos team, the same from the TV Colosso show.In May 2012, Veiga renewed his contract with Globo for another 4 years, laying to rest rumors that Louro Jos\u00e9 would stop participating on Mais Voc\u00ea.According to Outro Canal, in 2015 Veiga was promoted to assistant director.[15]On November 1, 2020, at the age of 47, Veiga was found dead in his home in Rio de Janeiro.[18][19] A report by the Instituto M\u00e9dico Legal\u00a0[pt] (Legal Medical Institute) indicated he died of a hemorragic stroke due to a brain aneurysm.[20]Character biography[edit]A 2000 episode of Mais Voc\u00ea aired with a video clip retconning Louro Jos\u00e9’s “birth”. In it, Ana Maria Braga is shown breaking open a giant egg with a hammer, to the sound of a baby crying in the background. From inside the egg comes out Louro Jos\u00e9, yelling “Mommy!”.[13][17]Louro Jos\u00e9 roots for S\u00e3o Paulo’s football team Corinthians.[14][21]Friends and family of Louro Jos\u00e9 have also made appearances on the program.  For instance, Andorinha Dorinha, Louro Jos\u00e9’s girlfriend,[5] is a blue swallow (“andorinha”, in Portuguese) and Sovena Group’s Azeite Andorinha’s (“Swallow Olive Oil”) mascot. She lives in an olive grove located in Ferreira do Alentejo, Portugal.[22] She was introduced on March 30, 2011, on an episode of Mais Voc\u00ea.[23]  Loura Maria, Louro Jos\u00e9’s cousin, is said to be from New York City.[24] She is a pink parrot who wears wigs and makeup, and was created following a suggestion by Fernanda Young.[7]Following Veiga’s passing, a substitute parrot mascot, provisionally nicknamed “Lourinho” (lit.\u2009‘Little Louro’), was introduced on 5 April 2022, played by Fabio Caniatto.[25][26] A few days later, a second parrot mascot appeared alongside Lourinho, called “Louro Mano” (lit.\u2009‘Bro Louro’).[27] While both claimed to be the true heir to Louro Jos\u00e9’s throne, a DNA test was conducted, and Lourinho was confirmed to be the son of Louro Jos\u00e9.[27] Aditionally, while public voting decided on the official name “Lourito”, Ana Maria Braga decided to nickname the mascot “Louro Man\u00e9”.[27][28]In other media[edit]Louro Jos\u00e9 was such a popular character that he had many appearances throughout the years, in other shows from Rede Globo:Merchandise[edit]A lot of Louro Jos\u00e9 merchandise has been released over the years, including toys, mugs, joke books, comic books,[40]phone cases, various flavors of chewing gum and even bird food.[11][41] A talking replica of Louro Jos\u00e9 was released in 2008 as a kid’s toy.[42]^ In the original 2003 “S\u00edtio do Picapau Amarelo” episode, Louro Jos\u00e9 is referred to multiple times by Louro Jo\u00e3o as “brother”. However, in a special 2011 Children’s Day episode of V\u00eddeo Game segment of V\u00eddeo Show, aired on Globo, Louro Jos\u00e9 comments that Louro Jo\u00e3o is his cousin. Because of the discrepancies, it is uncertain whether Louro Jo\u00e3o is a brother or a cousin. This hasn\u2019t confirmed by the owners of the Louro Jos\u00e9 brand as of yet.^ On the Mais Voc\u00ea episode aired on January 14, 2014, Louro Jos\u00e9 disputes the fact that he is a puppet, stating that he has no connection to his puppeteer Tom Veiga, a “nobody” who “just sits there and stares at [him] with a balding head”.[3]References[edit]^ a b “Louro Jos\u00e9 ano a ano” [Louro Jos\u00e9 year by year].
