Galasfeios

"Galãs Feios" translates to "Ugly Heartthrobs" in Portuguese — "galã" means a dashing leading man or heartthrob, and "feios" means ugly. The playfully self-deprecating name fits the channel's tone perfectly: pointed political and pop-culture humor delivered without taking themselves too seriously.

Galãs Feios is a two-person project run by Helder Maldonado and Marco Bezzi, both credited in the channel's own YouTube bio as its on-screen duo. They co-host daily videos and live streams covering Brazilian politics, celebrity culture, music, cinema, and TV through a comedic and opinionated lens.

It's Galãs Feios' self-proclaimed tagline, roughly translating to "the duo that exposes the most scams and schemes." It signals their mission to call out political manipulation, media spin, and social hypocrisy — always wrapped in comedy rather than straight-faced journalism.

Yes — Ciro Gomes, the Brazilian politician, is among the notable guests who have appeared on Galãs Feios. The channel has also hosted Randolfe Rodrigues, Julinho da Van from Choque de Cultura, Gregório Duvivier, João Gordo, Lucas Jagger, and comedy duo Hermes e Renato, reflecting the show's mix of political and cultural interviews.

Piores Vídeos da Semana — "Worst Videos of the Week" — is one of Galãs Feios' signature recurring formats, where Helder and Marco react to and roast the most embarrassing or controversial videos circulating on Brazilian social media that week. It's a core pillar of the channel's identity and a consistent driver of its exceptionally high audience engagement.

"Rolo na Live" — loosely translatable as "drama in the live stream" — is a recurring format on Galãs Feios, identifiable by the dedicated hashtags #rolounalive and #rolouna used across their posts. It captures real-time chaos, confrontations, or breaking controversies in Brazilian politics and media, all delivered with the duo's trademark humor.

Yes — Galãs Feios covered an incident in which a Jovem Pan journalist broke down crying during a live broadcast, walked off set, and the channel's director was removed. This kind of Brazilian media accountability content, framed through a comedic lens, is central to what Galãs Feios does and a recurring theme across their channel.

Galãs Feios signals a clear left-leaning political orientation through their content — they have used hashtags like #boulos2024, in support of left-wing São Paulo mayoral candidate Guilherme Boulos, and #elenão, the anti-Bolsonaro movement that emerged in 2018. They also frequently cover and satirize right-leaning Brazilian media outlets like Jovem Pan in a critical frame.

Yes — daily live streams are a core part of the Galãs Feios format, not just pre-recorded videos. Their bio explicitly states "Lives e vídeos diários," and recurring live-stream segments like Rolo na Live have their own dedicated hashtags, making the live format central to how they build community with their audience.

Insider Store is the identified brand sponsor of Galãs Feios, appearing in YouTube-integrated content as of 2026. It is the channel's known commercial partnership to date.
