Bruna Louise de Castro e Castro (born 6 September 1984[1]), professionally known as Bruna Louise (Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈbɾu.nɐ luˈi.zi]), is a Brazilian comedian, content creator, television host, and actress. Noted as one of the early female performers in Brazil's stand-up comedy scene, she is currently among the country's most popular comedians.[2][3][4][5][6]

Louise became the first Brazilian female comedian to premiere a solo stand-up comedy special on Netflix, titled Bruna Louise: Demolição, released in June 2022.[7][2]

Biography and career

[edit]

Early life

[edit]

Graduated in performing arts in Rio de Janeiro, Bruna Louise began her career in theater performing in dramatic plays, despite her interest in comedy. She started in stand-up comedy in 2010, joining and producing a group in Curitiba after a former boss claimed she had no talent for comedy.[8][9]

2014–2019: Deixa Eu Te Contar and Desbocada

[edit]

Louise and fellow comedian Kéfera Buchmann premiered the play Deixa Eu Te Contar at the Regina Vogue Theater in Curitiba in December 2014. A few months later, they embarked on a national tour, which was attended by over 100,000 people.[10]

In 2015, she created her YouTube channel, Desbocada, and began producing comedy videos. In 2016, she launched her first stand-up tour, named after her channel (the channel's name was later changed to her real name).[11]

In 2019, she recorded her first comedy special, Desbocada, at the Nósmenos Theater and released it on her channel.[12] In November of the same year, Netflix premiered Lugar de Mulher, a stand-up series consisting of four 15-minute episodes featuring different comedians. Louise was one of the guests, alongside Micheli Machado, Cintia Rosini, and Carol Zoccoli.[13][14]

2020–2022: A Culpa É da Carlota, Demolição and Juntas

[edit]

In 2020, she joined the panel of hosts for the program A Culpa É da Carlota on Comedy Central.[15] On June 22, 2022, Bruna Louise: Demolição ("Bruna Louise: Demolition") was released, making Louise the first Brazilian woman to star in a solo stand-up special on the streaming platform.[7][15]

"It is a demolition of the taboos of being a woman on stage [...] going against the myth that we are not funny. My show comes from my life [...] in this Netflix solo, I talk about paternal abandonment, when I went to meet my father, family stories [...] so they are very personal issues. I hope my work opens more doors for female comedians."[a] — Louise on the themes of her Netflix special.[7]

During the same period, she was invited to be the commentator for the reality show Brincando com Fogo: Brasil.[16]

In 2022, she launched the project Juntas ("Together"), a series of comedy specials created with the goal of introducing other female comedians and strengthening the female presence in Brazilian stand-up comedy.[17] The first edition was released in February, featuring Niny Magalhães, Renata Said, and Arianna Nutt.[18] In May, the second edition was released with Viviana Freitas, Ste Marques, and Paloma Santos.[19] The third edition, released in April, featured guests Babu Carreira, Cintia Rosini, and Yas Fiorelo.[20]

2023–present: Burnout, Ela Tá Correndo Atrás and O Que Passa Na Cabeça Dela?

[edit]

In 2023, she began her national and international tour, Burnout.[21] The final session was recorded and released in February 2024 as her third comedy special.[22] Louise also made her dubbing debut film Strays, voicing the Brazilin version character Maggie.[23] Also in 2023, she went on a short tour in Italy, starting with a performance in Milan at the San Fedele Auditorium. The following day, she performed at the Murialdo Theater in Turin, and a few days later, she took the stage at the Flavio Theater in Rome.[24]

In 2024, her tour Ela Tá Correndo Atrás ("She's Going After It") began.[25] In January 2025, Louise joined OnlyFans for comedic content that could not be monetized on YouTube.[26] Her new tour, O Que Passa Na Cabeça Dela? ("What is Going on Inside Her Head?"), premiered in March 2025.[27]

Personal life

[edit]

Louise is openly bisexual.[28] She was born in Rio Branco do Sul and raised in Curitiba in an all-female household by her mother, Inês Claret de Castro.[15][2] Her father abandoned the family at the time of her birth, and she met him for the first time in 2021, at the age of 36.[15]

O meu show surgiu da minha vida [...] nesse solo da Netflix, eu falo de abandono paterno, quando fui conhecer meu pai, histórias da minha família [...] são questões muito pessoais. Espero que meu trabalho abra mais portas para humoristas mulheres."
