Pastor's unlikely excuse after he was caught on camera wearing a woman's wig and underwear
A Brazilian pastor is facing backlash after he was filmed wearing women's lingerie and a wig in public. The video, which went viral on Monday, showed Eduardo Costa donning blue underwear and a blonde hairpiece as he strolled around a parking lot next to a bar in the central city of Goiânia, about 800 miles north west of Rio de Janeiro. The evangelical pastor took to social media later in the day to claim that he had chosen the attire as part of an 'investigation'. Costa said that the owner of the video attempted to extort him and pay up by noon, local time, on Monday. Costa refused and the footage was uploaded on Goiânia Mil Graus, a social media site in Brazil. 'I mistakenly ended up putting on a wig and shorts to try to find an address,' the pastor said as his wife stood in the background. 'I was doing serious work, an investigation of personal interest,' Costa added. It's unknown when the video was recorded or what Costa was investigating. The religious leader said he decided to wear the wig and women's underwear because he wanted to disguise his identity as part of a personal investigation 'Someone filmed me, tried to expose me, and then demanded money to keep the video from being published,' Costa added. 'This is extortion, and I will not remain silent in the face of it.' Surveillance camera footage leaked Tuesday also showed Costa dressed in lingerie the evening of August 6. The religious leader could be seen wearing a G-string as he posed in front of his car and then stepped inside to drive away. Costa has yet to provide a statement regarding the latest video. According to local media, the person who recorded Costa alleged that he 'uses God to make money' and that he frequented bars around town. One person, who claimed to have been employed by the pastor, alleged that it was not the first time he had been caught wearing women's clothing. 'His wife, who is now his ex, caught him in a little red dress near the motels,' they said. 'It was a huge mess. I saw the whole thing.'

JBS kicks off beef exports to 'strategic' Vietnamese market
JBS has sent its first shipment of beef to Vietnam as the Brazilian meat giant looks to tap into the "strategic" market in South East Asia. Publicly listed JBS said in a statement that 27 tonnes of beef left its Mozarlândia factory in Brazil on Saturday (5 July). The site, which produces the company's Friboi meat brand, was recently approved for authorisation to ship to Vietnam, along with its facility in Goiânia. "The opening of the Vietnamese market represents more than the entry into a new commercial destination: it is a strategic move by JBS in Asia, a region with growing demand for animal protein and economic prominence," the company said. A ceremony held in Rio de Janeiro, attended by Vietnamese Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính and Brazil's Minister of Agriculture Carlos Fávaro, marked the first shipment of Brazilian meat to Vietnam. Marcela Rocha, JBS' executive director of corporate affairs, highlighted the relevance of opening up Vietnam to Brazil: "Being present in this market is positive for the entire national agribusiness chain: rural producers, industries, suppliers and workers.' Rocha added: 'It is a sector that represents 20% of GDP, generates employment and moves regional economies." JBS said in the statement that with a population exceeding 101 million inhabitants, according to the General Statistics Office of Vietnam (GSO), Vietnam imported about 300,000 tons of beef and buffalo in 2024, aimed at domestic consumption by an expanding middle class. It added that Vietnam's GDP growth is estimated to be at 7.6% in the second quarter of this year compared to the same period in 2024, meaning the country is now one of the "most promising markets in South East Asia for animal proteins". JBS noted that "sustained growth and accelerated urbanisation is expected to further drive demand in the coming years and positions Brazil as a strategic supplier to serve this market'. The meat giant said in March it had earmarked $100m to invest in Vietnam with a plan to build two facilities to supply the local market and the rest of South East Asia. Under the first phase of the project, a facility will be constructed in Khu công nghiệp Nam Đình Vũ located in the city of Hải Phòng in north-east Vietnam. It will include a logistics centre with storage facilities, along with 'pre-processing, cutting and packaging activities'. As part of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed with the Vietnamese government, the second site will be built in the south of the country in an unspecified location. It will be similar in operation to the first, with construction likely to start two years after production begins at the initial plant.

This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here. The third phase of the Copa do Brasil 2025 continues this Thursday (22) with six more matches. In the first two matches of the evening, Cássio and Alan Patrick were the "highlights" for Cruzeiro and in Goiânia, where the Raposa faces Vila Nova, the experienced goalkeeper felt unwell and collapsed on the field, needing medical assistance. According to ge, Cássio had a drop in blood pressure and needed to ingest some salt to recover. CAIU A PRESSíO!Cássio sente um mal estar e é atendido no gramado. Goleiro do Cruzeiro ingere sal e se recupera na sequência. — ge (@geglobo) May 22, 2025 Meanwhile, in Florianópolis, where Inter is playing against Maracanã, Alan Patrick continues his "ordeal" against goalkeeper is because, just like in the first leg at Beira-Rio, the star wearing the number 10 jersey for Colorado missed a penalty. This time, however, Alan Patrick attempted a chip shot, but the goalkeeper of the Ceará team didn't even move to make the save. Alan Patrick bateu o pênalti de cavadinha e se deu mal. Goleiro Rair, do Maracanã, ficou parado e defendeu com facilidade. No jogo de ida contra o Inter, Rair já tinha defendido um pênalti batido por Alan Patrick. — ge (@geglobo) May 22, 2025 And to conclude this "strange" start to the evening in Brazilian football, Felipe Anderson left the Palmeiras game against Ceará with less than 12 minutes of play. #FelipeAnderson sentiu e saiu bem no comecinho do jogo!
