Time to finally share some stuff As I’m sure many of you know, telenovelas across the globe are pretty good for crying scenes, I’m going to focus on Brazil here because I’ve been watching a lot of their stuff. There are a ton of beautiful actresses who shed buckets of tears on a very regular basis.
For now I’ll just focus on my favourite, Bruna Marquezine:
Other than being, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful ladies on the planet, and being best known as the on/off girlfriend of Neymar, she’s also an established actress and one hell of a crier. She cries in every series she’s in, often 50+ times.
‘Em Familia’
Probably her ‘magnum opus’ as far as crying goes, I clocked something like 70 scenes across the whole series. Too many to share in one go, but here are the scenes from 2 episodes with the most frequent crying:
at 11:50, 20:20. Also male crying at 6:58 and another female at 14:40
from 9-14, then at 19, 20, 22 and 25 with lots of other female crying in between
right at the start, then from 6:50 to the end
from 16
at 2 (+ male sobbing), then briefly at 12
Just to prove this isn’t isolated to one series (or overly dramatic moments), here’s a happy-crying scene from ‘I Love Paraisopolis’
And here’s one from her current series, Deus Salve o Rei:
She’s a prolific crier in real life as well. Here are a few highlights from interviews and reality things:

Phew! I could keep going, but that’s more than enough for now…
Best place to skim through Brazilian TV is the production company’s website
PS: chora: Portugese for crying
It’s a bit slow but you can see every scene from recent shows in HD, legally, for free (unfortunately Big Brother is region locked and they have a habit of delisting scenes from older shows)

Yes I have more, I'm barely scratching the surface. I've got tons and tons of Bruna's scenes archived but sorting it into a tangible list of episodes, timestamps and links is gonna take time
There are plenty of other Brazilian women I like too so here's another:
Tais Araujo
I think she was the first Brazilian actress I discovered several years ago, so she's definitely a fave. Here are some scenes with lots of running tears. I really wish I could find them in HD...
- she starts crying properly at 12:55 but sheds a few discrete tears earlier. The other girl cries throughout.
- great scene but I'm annoyed they've removed most of the others. Some real gems as well. The whole series and others are on dailymotion, I'll have to crawl through them some time..

Yep, there's a very good chance you can look at any episode of any Brazilian show and find multiple crying scenes from its lead actresses (actors too)
I'll continue sharing more over the coming days.
