I would like to know if anyone has contact details 4 Chico & Roberta the children in Lambada Kaoma video clip?

Chico & Roberta featured in the video clip for the summer hit song Lambada of 1989. They also released their own Album & one of the songs featured was Frente a Frente. The name of the group that Chico & Roberta featured & toured with was called Kaoma. I have contacted some of the dancers in the clip & also some of the record labels but they do not have these details. It is belived that Chico & Roberta were natives from Porto Seguro, Brazil. I doubt that they are back there as i have contact with people there & there has never been any mention of them. They would be in their mid to late twenties and maybe even close to 30 years old now. I know the message is in English, either someone overseas in Europe knows of their whereabouts or relatives of theirs in Porto Seguro may know where they are now. Please get in touch with me if you have any serious information regarding Chico & Roberta on: dancezouk@yahoo.co.uk Thanks

1. I'll check on the net, in the mean time try searchin with google, dogpile, and yahoo...
2. The name of the girl in the Lambada video is Roberta de Brito. Her birthday is 27 April 1979 from Trancoso, Brazil. Her dance partner is named Chico Oliveira and his birthday is 20 February 1977 from Porto Seguro, Brazil. Sometimes he is refered to as Voston or Washington Oliveira. They formed the group 'Chico & Roberta' after dancing with Kaoma and released an album called 'Frete a Frente'. They have some promo videos also but they are hard to find. I believe that they have videos of the following songs: (1) Frente A Frente, (2) Esperanza Do Natal, (3) Dança Do La La La. There may be a fourth video of 'Festa No Mar' but I do not know. I think that these videos have only been broadcast on TV and never released commercially. Chico and Roberta performed "Esperanza Do Natal" live on a French television show, Chère Dorothée. They also appeared in many of Kaoma's videos. The names of the videos of Kaoma that they appeared in are "Lambada", "Lambamor", "Lambada Instructions & Isso E Bom", "Lamba Caribe", and "Lamba Reggae". Some of these videos were released on video and may not have been broadcast on television. They also appeared on two live performances. One is from TF1 in France where they performed "Dançando Lambada" and another is from German television show "Peter's Pop Show" where they performed "Lambada". I don't know anything about their current whereabouts of Chico or Roberta but am also curious. I know that Loalwa Braz, the lead singer of Kaoma, has re-emerged and is appearing in some venues as Kaoma. I think that she is the only original member to carry the tradition of the band.
