Biography

Start of Fitness Journey

Born and raised in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Juju grew up participating in numerous sports, such as; soccer, volleyball, and gymnastics. As a result, she naturally developed a lean figure – but she soon became unhappy with her appearance, desiring a strong and curvy physique.

That same year, Juju took action to transform her body; tracking her calories and lifting weights in the gym. After beginning to take an interest in fitness, she started idolizing bodybuilders and bikini athletes, aiming to replicate their success and build a similar figure.

In 2001, Juju embarked on the fitness journey that would lead her to fame in her home country.

TV Presenter

For the next 7 years, Juju trained rigorously to develop her physique, cutting out all junk food and following a strict diet plan. By the age of 22, the future model had gained lean muscle mass and cut down body fat – becoming recognized for her great figure.

In 2008, Juju became a reporter for a TV show called “Panic On TV”, earning her first taste of fame. Over the course of 2 years, the Brazilian became extremely popular in her home country – which led to her being given the position of lead presenter for “Panic Delivery” in 2010.

It was this role that thrust Juju into the limelight, and she soon became a star in Brazil; idolized by numerous fitness fans for both her shining personality and curvaceous body.


 


Modelling and Social Media

After gaining the hearts of countless fans in her country, Juju lived life in the fast lane; in 2010, she starred on the cover of Playboy magazine and was awarded with the title of “Sexiest Woman In The World” by VIP magazine.

This exposure in the modelling industry resulted in the birth of her career as a model. It wasn’t long until Juju was approached to become the face of numerous fitness brands and supplements around the world – becoming the subject of numerous online bodybuilding forums due to her incredible figure.

It was this admiration that inspired Juju to encourage others to follow a healthy lifestyle – the Brazilian created an Instagram profile (@jujusalimeni) to reach out to her fan base, posting pictures and videos of her fitness journey.

Inevitably, she attained millions of followers, and by 2016, she’d gained the status of “social media sensation“.
