The nickname comes from “Big Brother Brasil 21”, in early 2021. According to a UAI article from 10 February 2021, Sarah sneaked into different rooms of the house to listen to the rival group and pass the information on to Gilberto. She blended in with black clothes and a cap, and went to put on makeup in rooms that were not her own to stay close to the talk. Viewers turned this into memes, with jokes about James Bond and the FBI, and comedian Rafael Portugal joined in. Her tactics were eventually found out by Karol Conká's group.
