Personal life[edit]
Born in Campinas,[2] Kleber Bambam gained national notoriety after participating in the first season of the reality show Big Brother Brasil, where he was champion with 68% of the votes.[3] After leaving the reality show, he worked as an actor on TV Globo, participating in the series A Turma de Didi.[4] He also posed nude for G Magazine in January 2007.[5] In 2013, he was invited to participate in that year's BBB, but withdrew and left the house after five days.[6][7]
In May 2018, he decided to move to the United States to pursue a career as a bodybuilder.[8][9] Three months later, he won the bodybuilding championship held in Las Vegas.[10][11][12] Representing Brazil, Bambam lifted a weight of more than 100 kg, competed with athletes from several countries, came out on top in the Master category (over 35 years old) and also came third in the Senior category.[10][13]
On February 25, 2024, Bambam was knocked out by boxer Popó after 36 seconds of fighting[14][15] in the fourth edition of the Fight Music Show, in São Paulo.[16][17]
