What does the “Hello, Marilene!” meme mean?
It stands for the spontaneous, unfiltered love message, said with total ease in front of the camera. Today it's used to mock any over-the-top declaration or one stuffed with details nobody requested.
Where does the “Hello, Marilene!” meme come from?
Sálvio Vieira, an administrative staff member at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), was approached by journalism students from the same university during a report about Valentine's Day. Asked to send a message to his wife, he naturally said: “Olá, Marilene! À noite, tainha, vinho e muito sexo!”. Later reports usually place the video in 2013, but a re-aired full version of the program circulates under the title “TJ UFSC 12/06/2012,” which leaves the exact year of the original recording uncertain. The video became one of the most enduring memes on the Brazilian internet, resurfacing in lists and retrospectives almost every year. In 2024, the couple announced their divorce, which brought the catchphrase back among the most-discussed topics on Google in Brazil that year.
