Gilles do Vigor shared a complaint after his photo was used in the profile of a politician registered on the official TSE (Tribunal Superior Eleitoral) website.
The “BBB 21” (TV Globo) character was used to register Luciano Gómez, DC’s pre-state candidate in Mato Grosso for this year’s elections.
“Now that’s done. The process is here. I’m pissed right now. Want to do your runs? It’s your problem, but be sure. How angry,” he wrote in an Instagram Stories post.
The former BBB posted an image on his social media that the politician used without permission. The photo has been replaced on the TSE portal.
“The party said it was the mistake of the company they hired to do it. Regardless of who made the mistake, it’s serious. I do not support it,” the statement said.
“Something serious like this doesn’t have to be trivial to get attention, these actions have consequences,” he concluded.
Gil do Vigor finished “BBB 21” in fourth place and is currently an economist in California, USA to complete his Ph.D.
