Fernanda Paes Leme

Fernanda Paes Leme (born June 4, 1983) is a Brazilian presenter and actress. In 1998, she debuted on the TV Globo series Sandy & Júnior, playing the spoiled and extravagant Patty, the comic antagonist of the story, who always failed her in funny ways. During this time she received proposals from Manoel Carlos to play the character Íris in Laços de Família and the protagonist of the miniseries Presença de Anita, but she was prevented by the series' management from leaving him and accepting the invitations.

In 2003 she debuted her first soap opera, Agora É que São Elas as Karina, joining the third season of the children's series Sítio do Picapau Amarelo in the same year as the journalist Clarice. In 2004 she entered the second phase of the soap opera Da Cor do Pecado playing Nieta Bazarov, one of the three rival mat fighting sisters of the Sardinha family. But it was in 2005 that she gained prominence when she faced her first dramatic character, the illegal immigrant Rosário em América, who crossed the Texas desert in search of the American dream, taking her younger sister with her.

In 2007 she played the flirtatious Teresinha in Desire Proibido, in addition to making her film debut in the films O Homem que Desafio o Diabo and Podecrer! .
