The narrator, Clara, recalls a time in mid-2014 when they went to McDonald's near their home and started to approach a group of young people. As they got closer, a friend appeared and they began to engage in conversation. Clara, who was not yet famous at the time, was hesitant about posing for photos with the group.
As time passed, Clara's fame grew, but they still felt like a normal person. They discussed the strange behaviors of people around them when they became famous. Clara mentioned their prosopagnosia, a condition that affects their ability to recognize faces, which they likened to having myopia.
Clara shared their experience of going out during the pandemic with a mask, glasses, and a cap, which made them look like a fugitive. They discussed the difficulty of answering the question "Are you famous?" and the trap it can be. They also talked about the amusing and awkward moments when they meet people who have only seen them online.
Clara joked about the group of people who decided that they were living with a condition that they didn't know how to answer. They also shared a funny encounter where they were asked to take a selfie, and the person pretended to take a photo while actually using their cell phone for something else.
Clara expressed their excitement about an upcoming show of their funk playlist in Rio de Janeiro and invited their fans to attend.
