Where does the “King of the VIP Booth” meme come from?
The meme comes from a feature published by Veja São Paulo magazine in November 2013, about regulars of São Paulo's luxury nightclub scene. Businessman Alexander de Almeida stood out among the interviewees by detailing his VIP booth lifestyle, claiming he spent between R$30,000 and R$50,000 a night. Lines like “the booth is a matter of status” and his comparison of a booth without pretty women to “a Boeing flown by a puddle-jumper pilot” became instantly famous. The interview video spread across social media, racked up nearly 10 million views, and turned into a meme used by brands, comedy shows and parodies, crowning Alexander as the “King of the VIP Booth.”
