Biography


Jovelina was born in Rio de Janeiro, at the Botafogo neighbourhood and raised in Belford Roxo. She worked as a housemaid until her forties and was a member of the samba school Império Serrano.[2]

Jovelina debuted to fame presenting at the Vegas Sport Clube, in the Coelho Neto neighborhood; her friend Dejalmir gave her stage name Jovelina Pérola Negra (Jovelina Black Pearl).[1]

She recorded five individual albums, earning a platinum certificate, and a number of compilations. Some of her recorded songs are "Feirinha da Pavuna", "Bagaço da Laranja" (with Zeca Pagodinho), "Luz do Repente", "No Mesmo Manto" and "Garota Zona Sul". Success came late in her life and she did not fulfill her dream of "earning a lot of money and giving her children everything she didn't have".

Jovelina died on November 2, 1998, at age 54, from a heart attack in her home in Pechincha.[2]


Honours


She was posthumously awarded the Order of Cultural Merit by the Brazilian Ministry of Culture in 2016.[3] Her name was given to the Arena Carioca Jovelina Pérola Negra cultural center, in the Pavuna neighbourhood of Rio.[4]
