- If You Knew Xuxa

- <p> There on Forbes' list of the highest-paid entertainers,
- nestled between Tom Clancy and Mel Gibson, was someone named
- XUXA. Xuxa? That's right, Xuxa (pronounced SHOO-shah), an
- immensely popular Brazilian entertainer who at 28 is an industry
- unto herself. Movies, TV shows, records, comic books--all
- aimed at children and all wildly successful--are the stuff of
- Xuxa's magic, which she hopes to work in the U.S. as soon as she
- conquers English. "My work is my great love," says Xuxa, who
- cites Samantha from Bewitched as an influence. "I try to create
- fantasies and help people to dream."
