After a successful film for the teen audience, Xuxa planned to do something for children. In
Xuxa Kid, Xuxa would become a 10-year-old girl, similar to what would happen years later in
Xuxa em Sonho de Menina (2007). In the story, the young version of the presenter would have the duo
Sandy and Junior as their friends. The recordings were planned for September and would be released in December. However,
Globo Filmes decided to veto the participation of the pair because there were already plans to launch a film with the brothers as protagonists, a fact that only came to fruition in 2003. Because of this decision, the story of the film had to be completely changed and the launch of a new film was delayed until March 2001. His manager then had the idea of making a film that could put musical attractions, just like in the previous one, to attract the adolescent public, that accompanied Xuxa in its TV series
Planeta Xuxa. Diler Andrade defines the insertions of musical numbers (in a non-musical film) as a "strategic marriage" between the cinematographic and phonographic industry. "We need to repeat the feat of the music industry, which holds 80% of the market, against 20% of foreign artists. According to the presenter, the film recounts a little of the story she lived when she spent three months in the United States early in her modeling career. "It is very difficult to face the lack of your country. We miss everything and have an hour that feels like coming back," he said. The team's great pride, according to Xuxa, was to make a film "that brings an important message to children". "We did a research and found that boys want to be football players and girls, models, models and singers. I think it's important that they know that it takes a lot of head not to fall on the bad side of the profession, that has drugs, prostitution." the groups Harmonia do Samba, As Meninas,
Os Travessos,
KLB, SNZ and
É o Tchan: and the singers Deborah Blando and Mauricio Manieri participated in the film. Also present are
Sílvia Pfeifer, Claudia Rodrigues and veteran Claudio Corrêa e Castro. The scene of the kiss between Nick and Ray of Light was repeated dozens of times. The interpretation was so intense that at that time some
tabloids even published that there was no technical kiss and that Xuxa and Luigi Baricelli would have a love relationship. The two even denied the relationship, but the Xuxa confirmed that the kiss was not technical. ==Music==
