Ana Carolina da Fonseca (born October 25, 1978) is a Brazilian-American actress, television personality and model.
She was born in São Paulo, Brazil to Portuguese parents. She moved to the United States at age 12.
She is fluent in Spanish and English, as well as her native Portuguese.
Da Fonseca has made numerous television appearances as herself, including as the model and presenter on the television series El Blablazo and its spin-offs, which aired on the broadcast-television network Univision from 1998 to 2001.

Seu Jorge (born June 8, 1970; Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsew ˈʒɔʁʒi]) is a Brazilian musician, singer/songwriter and actor. Born Jorge Mário da Silva, he was raised in a favela in what is now known as the city of Belford Roxo. Belford Roxo is located north of city of Rio de Janeiro in Rio de Janeiro state in the Baixada Fluminense region. Due to its proximity, Belford Roxo is considered part of the larger metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro. He is considered by many a renewer of Brazilian pop samba. Seu Jorge cites samba schools, and American soul singer Stevie Wonder as major musical influences.
As a singer, Seu Jorge was part of the band Farofa Carioca, writing most of the songs of their 1998 debut album Moro no Brasil. In 2001 he released Samba Esporte Fino, a pop album influenced by musicians Jorge Ben Jor, Gilberto Gil, and Milton Nascimento. It was released outside Brazil under the name Carolina in 2003. His second album, the critically acclaimed Cru ("Raw"), was released in 2005. Seu Jorge also recorded the live duo album "Ana & Jorge" with Brazilian singer Ana Carolina, released in Brazil in 2005.
Plot
Our film, 'About a Bum and a Boy' is a wacky, character driven, comedy about friendship with heart. It all begins when a bum, known as the High School Bathroom Bum, gets his name by moving into a high school bathroom with the help of an alcoholic janitor. There, he befriends a 'nerdy' student named Matthew by protecting him from a bully. Matthew, in turn, brings the bum food and their awkward friendship develops. The real adventure kicks off when Matt goes to college (UC Berkeley) only to find that the bum has followed him there. Living in his dorm bathroom, he crashes his dates, parties, and puts their friendship to the test. After much hilarity, their friendship comes out on top.
Plot
A down-on-his-luck film director sets fire to his home so he can collect the insurance money and fund his new movie. But crime apparently does pay, because once the rumor mill gets wind of his plans, everyone suddenly wants a slice of his new project's pie.

Open up my eyes
So I can see that there is more out there
Than you and me..
I know there's something better.
But still this idea is stuck inside my head
I can see your cheeks start turning red
As I walk by.
And it's too bad
That I regret the day I left.
A place called Carolina it's where,
We run to forget all of our problems.
Let's go to Carolina without,
A perfect reason just as long as..
We don't go home.
Breathe in..breathe out.
So I can suffocate
These feelings that will never go away.
Open up my eyes..fill my head with lies
So I can live without you.
Storm moves in and washes away
The days we had soon were forgotten
Until we go..
I wanna be great, I wanna be strong
I wanna be a warrior who fights with the passion of a love song
I wanna be bold, I wanna be true
I wanna have the courage to walk in the darkness, cuz I'm with you
Cuz I'm with You, every day
And I'm with You, all of the way
Oh I'm with You
I wanna be free, just like a wild dog
I wanna the vision to see through the darkness, and all of the fog
And I wanna run to my damsel's call
And I am gonna love her the right way this time, wrinkles and all
Cuz I'm with You, every day
And I'm with You, all of the way
Oh I'm with You
Living in a world of darkness, I won't make it through
Unless I'm with You
I gotta forget myself, show some love to someone else
I am gonna sing a song that's true
Cuz I'm with You, every day
And I'm with You, all of the way
Oh I'm with You
Oh I'm with You
Oh I'm with You
Oh, where you goin?
For the two hundred and fiftieth time
(Well, I?m waiting for a sign)
Well, it looks just like another line
And I?m walking backwards
To the place where I come from
Oh, but that ain?t enough, no, you want me to run
Used to feel like California
With baby eyes so blue
Now I feel like Carolina
I split myself in two
Now I?m walking backwards
From Chicago through Washington
Oh, but that ain?t enough, no, you want me to run
Oh, that ain?t enough, no, you want me to run
Better watch your soul
It?ll leave you like a hundred bucks
My friend said, ?Stick to your guns?
But instead I just got stuck
And I?m walking backwards
Lookin? forward to getting done
Oh, but that ain?t enough, no, you want me to run
Oh, that ain?t enough, no, you want me to run
Used to feel like California
With baby eyes so blue
Now I feel like Carolina
I split myself in two
Used to feel like California
With baby eyes so blue
Now I feel like Carolina
Carolina
Nos seus olhos fundos
Guarda tanta dor
A dor de todo esse mundo
Eu já lhe expliquei que não vai dar
Seu pranto não vai nada ajudar
Eu já convidei para dançar
É hora, já sei, de aproveitar
Lá fora, amor
Uma rosa nasceu
Todo mundo sambou
Uma estrela caiu
Eu bem que mostrei sorrindo
Pela janela ai que lindo
Mas Carolina não viu
Carolina
Nos seus olhos tristes
Guarda tanto amor
O amor que já não existe
Eu bem que avisei, vai acabar
De tudo lhe dei para aceitar
Mil versos cantei pra lhe agradar
Agora não sei como explicar
Lá fora, amor
Uma rosa morreu
Uma festa acabou
Nosso barco partiu
Eu bem que mostrei a ela
O tempo passou na janela
E só Carolina não viu
Lá fora, amor
Uma rosa morreu...
Every scream went bleeding through these paper walls
And all the make-up in the world couldn't hide the scars
I leave today, I'm packing light: a suitcase, some toiletries
The rolling hills and willow trees of Carolina wait for me
You never learned, the rules have changed since we were nine
This isn't school, boys don't assault the girls they like
The taste of blood, the claim of love; these two will here on cease to be
Sprouting from your fists and tongue 'cause Carolina waits for me
Fields of grain go whipping by from the window seat
I'm drifting in, I'm drifting out catching up on sleep
I couldn't get indentured since the very crest of 17
I left my keys and broken dreams 'cause Carolina waits for me
I will never forgive a single day
Mile markers seem to call my name and say,
Il nome che si diede era Carolina
Figlia di un minatore
Tra i ricordi di ieri
Nei suoi occhi cos? fieri
Il tramonto specchiava il suo colore
Veniva da Alghero attraverso il mare
Diceva: ? mio padre che mi ha mandato
Il carbone era poco
Per accendere il fuoco
E l'inverno nei cieli sarebbe arrivato
Raccontava di venire in cerca di lavoro
Non credeva nel domani
Per una minestra da scaldare
E un letto dove stare
Avrebbe sporcato le sue mani
Ma i tempi erano duri Signore e il lavoro poco
Nel molo si lasciava cadere
Non le chiesi come mai
Quando la incontrai
Nella vecchia Genova a versare da bere
Mise via abbastanza per tornare a casa
Si chiedeva se era vero
Ma qualcuno gi? al porto
Le disse "Tuo padre ? morto"
La voce veniva da Alghero
Vendeva le sue notti al buio dei carruggi
Rincorsa dal dolore
Quanto vino hai versato?
Quanti uomini hai baciato?
Senza mai cedere all'amore
La trovarono gi? al porto, una notte di novembre
La credevano partita
Nella mano stringeva
Un biglietto che diceva
Vecchia Genova, che Dio ti benedica
Il nome che si diede era Carolina
Figlia di un minatore
Tra i ricordi di ieri
Nei suoi occhi cos? fieri

Carolina
She wants to go home
I don't want this
I don't need this
I don't like this anymore
I'm waiting forever
I'm never going home

Frustrated about her little girl
Nine years and it's (?)
Caroline you're never home

I don't like this anymore
I'm waiting forever
I'm finally going home
Can't stop this obsession
Can't(?)
When I close my eyes
There's a place I go
My name is Caroline
I hide from everyone
On this nightmare ride
But I'm far from home
Under the covers of
The dust and mud and air
And my thoughts they come
Easy to me
I didn't ask for this
I hope you understand
So make your mark
So long Dad
For the first time in my life
I'm on my own
A chance for me
To be free
To be anyone I want to be at all

Down in Tennessee
Sits a girl alone
She sings along with her favorite songs on the radio
Only friends she sees
Are on TV
Magazine and movie stars are her only family
Yeah they're all she needs
Carolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning inside
In the Nashville sky
Shines a diamond bright
Carolina says it's for the boys after midnight
She drifts off to sleep
And in her dreams
She lives in California in a mansion by the sea
Yeah that's who she could be
Carolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning inside
Carolina's so
Happy on the outside
She keeps frowning inside
And then she wakes to find out
Her dream is real (It's real)
It's real (It's real)
It's real (It's real)
It's real
Carolina's so
Happy on the outside
And now she's smiling inside
Smiling inside (Inside)

Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina
In the morning
No one could be sweeter than my sweetie when I meet her
In the morning
Where the morning glories twine around the door
Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more
Strolling with my girlie where the dew is pearly early
In the morning
If I had Aladdin's lamp for only a day
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say
Nothing could be finer thana to be in Carolina
In the morning!
Where the morning glories twine around the door
Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more
Strolling with my girlie where the dew is pearly early
in the morning
Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each buttercup at dawning
If I had Aladdin's lamp for only a day
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say
Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina

Carolina...
Her tears are falling like the spanish moss
Disappearing...
Into beauty found in beauty lost
Reff:
So it goes, the summer blooms and fades away
Like moonlight falling on a bed
And there can be no solace in remembering
The words we never said
Faded postcards...
Of all the places she loves best
Take her far away...
As she presses wrinkles from her cotton dress
Repeat Reff
So it goes the summer blooms and fades away
Like moonlight crashing to the earth
And there can be no solace in remembering
The way things never were
California in the evening
Rush past the water
Get me over the great state line
The skies electrical it's screaming
Trying to find the morning
Hell I'd settle for the other side
Don't bother counting up the days boy
Numbers gettin' bigger by the minute and I'm so tired
But I can honestly say boy
Oh unless you're in it I don't want it so here it comes
Fire
Over the horizon keeping my eyes on
Wire
All the way in Carolina
I won't go home until I find ya
Ya fill my bones my mind up so
I'm coming to Carolina
Don't ya know I'm right behind ya
No love of mine
Is gonna wind
Up leaving me for Carolina
Don't feel the summer like I used to
Oh you brought thunder, tugged me under, its all your fault
Want me to let you leave do you?
Well I never minded aftermath
And this is what happens to a
Liar
Miles on the highway
Nothing to stop me
Until I'm done
Coming for you Carolina
Won't go home till I find ya
Ya fill my bones my mind up so
I'm coming to Carolina
Don't you know I'm right behind ya
No love of mine
Is gonna wind
Up leaving me for Carolina
I don't mind the rain it suits me
Makes the pain pursuit seem
Less unruly
It's been a good night
And one hell of a drive
Coming for you Carolina
Won't go home till I find ya
Ya fill my bones my mind up so
I'm coming to Carolina
Don't you know I'm right behind ya
No love of mine
Is gonna wind
Up leaving me for Carolina
Leaving me for Carolina
Carolina é uma menina bem difícil de esquecer
Andar bonito e um brilho no olhar
Tem um jeito adolescente que me faz enlouquecer
E um molejo que não vou te enganar
Maravilha feminina, meu docinho de pavê
Inteligente, ela é muito sensual
Eu te confesso que estou apaixonado por você
Ô Carolina isso é muito natural
Ô Carolina eu preciso de você
Ô Carolina não vou suportar não te ver
Ô Carolina eu preciso te falar
Ô Carolina eu vou amar você
De segunda a segunda eu fico louco pra te ver
Quanto eu te ligo você quase nunca está
Isso era outra coisa que eu queria te dizer
não temos tempo então melhor deixar pra lá
a princípio no Domingo o que você quer fazer
faça um pedido que eu irei realizar
olha aí amigo eu digo que ela só me dá prazer
Essa mina Carolina é de abalar
Ô Carolina eu preciso de você
Ô Carolina não vou suportar não te ver
Ô Carolina eu preciso te falar
Ô Carolina eu vou amar você
Carolina, Carolina
Carolina, preciso te encontrar
Carolina, me sinto muito só
Carolina, preciso te dizer
Ô Carolina eu só quero amar você
Carol, Carol, Carol, ...
Me and you in a midnight blue, '82 Camaro
Crossin' over the Hartwell bridge movin' fast as she would go
Windows down, radio up, we were singin' “Freebird”
Flyin' up to your daddy's cabin just outside of Spartanburg
Do you remember the way you looked at me back then
Two hungry eyes wrapped up in a smile so innocent
It all makes one hell of a reminder
Keeps me cryin' Carolina
We had a hotel room with a harbor view and a bottle of Chianti
That spring break in Charleston, it keeps comin' back to haunt me
Took a carriage ride to the battery, toasted shots above the water
Then stumbled ‘cross the cobblestone, hands holdin' us together
Do you remember the way we carried on
Blew all our money and we had to starve the whole way home
It all makes one hell of a reminder
Keeps me cryin' Carolina
I can't let it go, no I can't let it go
I don't wanna' let go, oh no it feels too far away
Do you remember the single bed that we slept in
When I'd ride up to Clemson and hide in your room the whole weekend
It all makes one hell of a reminder
Carolina porque te has ido sin hablar
Carolina no es justo verte así marchar
Carolina Carolina con mis pensamientos
Tu me dejas solamente, viviré marcha atrás
Carolina Carolina si estaba equivocado
Olvida lo pasado para volver a empezar
Carolina, al no tenerte junto a mi
Carolina, mi vida es nada ya sin ti
Sin tus reproches (lalala) y así sin mas
Carolina Carolina con mis pensamientos
Tu me dejas solamente viviré marcha atrás
Carolina Carolina si estaba equivocado
olvida lo pasado para volver a empezar
(Sabroso eh)
Sin tus reproches (lalala) y así sin mas
Carolina Carolina con mis pensamientos
Tu me dejas solamente viviré marcha atrás
Carolina Carolina si estaba equivocado
olvida lo pasado para volver a empezar
Ven mi Carolina, ven mi Carolina
Ven ven ven que te quiero ver
Ven mi Carolina, ven mi Carolina
Ven ven ven que te quiero ver
Sin tus reproches (lalala) y así sin mas
Carolina Carolina Carolina con mis pensamientos
Tu me dejas solamente viviré marcha atrás
Carolina Carolina si estaba equivocado
olvida lo pasado para volver a empezar
Ven mi Carolina, ven mi Carolina
Ven ven ven que te quiero ver
Ven mi Carolina, ven mi Carolina

Tennessee, January
Everything, ordinary
You're unlike anything I've seen
Is this how I really feel?
Or just another heart to steal
To fuel the song that's underneath
CHORUS:
Carolina, you will have to forgive me
Carolina, this is just my tendancy
I pass another day wasting
Thoughts on what's ahead asking
What if and why not and who's to say?
When all I really know of you
Is you're just as lonely too
'cause desperate hearts are hearts that need someone
BRIDGE:
I'm careless sometimes
I'm sure that you'll find
But that's now how
I want to live my life
I wanna to be sure
But don't know how to
Carolina, carolina, carolina, carolina
Nothing could be finer than to be in carolina in the morning
No one could be sweeter that my sweetie when I meet her in the morning
Where the morning glory
Twine around the door
Whispering pretty stories
I long to hear once more
Strolling with my girlie when the dew is pearly early in the morning
Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each little buttercup, in the morning
If I had aladdin's lamp
I'd make a wish and here's what I'd say
Slow down let me catch my breath
'Cause when you're not here you know that I'm a mess
And the sun don't shine in Jersey when you're not here
Whoa oh got me spinning around
And I think it's time we headed back for the ground
'Cause I don't think Ive seen the world from up this high
And all the time I think I've wasted
Never amounts too much
But just to see you smile you know I'd do it all again
You know the sky is getting brighter
As you're driving home from Carolina
And this may come as a joke to you
But all I wanna do is wait for you to come on home
Don't stop tell me everything
You know I never wanted to hear the sound of the wind
Lets just hang out in the southern heat
You know we both need sometime to get away
And all the time I think I've wasted
Never amounts too much
But just to see you smile you know I'd do it all again
You know the sky is getting brighter
As you're driving home from Carolina
And this may come as a joke to you
But all I wanna do is wait for you to come on home
And I'll never find myself a world away from you
You know the sky is getting brighter
As you're driving home from Carolina
And this may come as a joke to you
There's a cabin in a valley,
My grandpa built on your land.
Your mountains are a canvas,
For the makers hand.
Tonight I'm fishing up a river,
If only in my mind.
No, I haven't seen her banks in such a long, long time.
I carry you in my heart
your memory comes over me like the dark and
(Refrain)
Like a phone call from my baby,
Sayin' honey I miss ya like crazy.
Like the sound of a siren song,
Oh Carolina, ya keep callin me home.
Callin' me home.
Sometimes I grow weary,
From goin' all the time.
I love to take a minute,
Let you ease my mind.
I'd love to see my mama
Maybe go for a drive
But I gotta play the star in some little town again tonight
Don't get me wrong
I love what I do
It's just another song about missing you
(Refrain)
Callin' me home
Callin' me home
Callin' me home, yeah
Oh, oh, we're almost home
Like a phone call from my baby
Sayin honey I miss ya, I miss ya like crazy
Just like the song of a siren song
Oh Carolina,
Carolina,

Keep callin me home,
Callin' me home,
Callin' me home,
Callin' me home

Every scream went bleeding through these paper walls
And all the make up in the world couldn't hide the scars
I leave today
I'm packing light, a suitcase and toiletries
The rolling hills and willow trees
Of Carolina wait for me
You never learned the rules have changed since we were 9
This isn't school, boys don't assault the girls they like
The taste of blood
The claim of love
These two will here on cease to be
Sprouting from your fists and tongue
As Carolina waits for me
Fields of grain go whipping by from the window seat
I'm drifting in, I'm drifting out
Catching up on sleep
I couldn't get indentured sins, the very crest of 17
I left my keys and broken dreams
'Cause Carolina waits for me
I will never forgive a single day
Mile markers seem to call my name and say,
"You're safer now
Through every town
We'll light your way in reflective green."
Home is where my heart is still beating
I don't know when i'll see her again
I hate to see her cry when I'm leaving
But now I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina
It's hard to understand the way I'm living
I know you think I'm never coming home (never coming home)
But I miss your pretty smile, and I'm coming back in a little while
But I'm a thousand miles away again
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California (looks like California)
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
No matter how far I go, you know I can't stop thinking about her
And there's nothing like the way I feel, the way I feel when I'm beside her
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
She feels like Carolina
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
Shining like those New York lights on Broadway
When she looks back I'm behind her (feels like Carolina)
I'll always be there for her
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
California
Like home's not so far away
She feels like Carolina (feels like Carolina)
Looks like California
She makes me feel like home's not so far away
She makes me feel like home (so far away)
Carolina, she's from Texas
Red bricks drop from her vagina
Oh, her lips taste just like sunk ships
But her breasts taste just like breakfast
There's her hand now on the cock sock
Filled with white tears from the thrift store
She's an eyesore in her red dress
I'm the ghost of her deceased when she said
Give us back our lives
Leave him, Carolina
Everything's just fine
Refill my prescription
Until next time
I get so lost inside the rooms inside my mind
California presidente
Cogi mucho estoy cansado
Dostoevsky, Fab Moretti
Antiseptic, complimentary
There's her hand now on the cock sock
Filled with white tears from the thrift store
She's an eyesore in her red dress
I'm the ghost of her deceased when she said
Give us back our lives
Leave him, Carolina
Everything's just fine
Refill my prescription
Until next time
I get so lost inside the rooms inside my mind
Goodnight Sweetheart
Flying high on birth control
She knows the pregnancy will show
That she smells nice when you look twice
Who's your boyfriend, Carolina?
And it's goodnight sweetheart
Flying high on birth control
She knows the rejections in her bones
Carolina, she's from Texas
Red bricks drop from her vagina

Carolina,
Well, I'm walkin' in the hills of Carolina
Through the heat as thick as the blood
That moves my bones
And I don't think much about nothing in Carolina
But it sure feels nice
Not walkin' on steel and stone
Chorus:
Far away from everything that keeps me from you,
Acceptance found in walkin' another mile
And the things I left undone
Become the things I'll never do
Cause I'm floatin' on the wind in Carolina
But my feet still slip in the mud
That holds me down
And I can't help takin' my time in Carolina
Cause the highway hummin'
Might keep me from comin' around
CHORUS
Bridge:
Long gone, it's only one more minute of another long day
Hold on, it's time I gave back
Just a little bit of change
Cause I'm walking in the hills of Carolina
Through the heat as thick as the blood
That saved my soul
And there ain't no doubt about nothing in Carolina
Boy, it sure feels nice
Not living on bread alone
CHORUS
yes i can remember darkness fear and never ending
deserts
that dried your face from tears
i'm picking the memories off the trees
and from the scent of summer
in yellow, brown and green
now i'm lost within the arms of Carolina
and she's the warmest getaway, feels just like mother
inside my mind
i saw myself running in a dream
i was storming down the hallway but no one heard my
plea
when i was a young boy this was life
from a speaker yelled a stranger when you called for
your mom
now i'm lost within the arms of Carolina
and she's the warmest getaway feels just like mother
she's free, she makes her own rules
i cruise her sea and forget my old wounds
but i still feel the blisters
they drag me down to hear the whispers
inside my mind
i feel lost just like a child
now i'm lost within the arms of Carolina
wishing that i could forget but i still want her
i saw myself running in dream
