"Envolver," sung in Spanish, rather than her native Portuguese, is part of her strategy to expand her brand globally. "Number 1 in the world. I really don't know what to say. THE FIRST LATIN WOMAN TO BE NUMBER ONE SOLO IN THE WORLD. The only Brazilian in the history of my country to have a top 5 song in the world. Oh my God," she wrote on Twitter, after reaching the milestone.
