In December, the GAY BLOG BR<\/strong> team revisited the most read articles of the year<\/a> and gathered them in categories so that readers could elect, through voting, those deserving of the extremely valuable Poc Awards<\/strong><\/a> trophy.<\/p>\n

The interview<\/a> with Marcelo Bechler (34)<\/strong>, where the journalist talks about the backstage of the viral video<\/a> with the player Gerard Piqu\u00e9<\/strong>, motivated the nomination of the mineiro in the \u201cStraight Non Toxic of the Year\u201d<\/strong> category of the award. With 53% of the public vote<\/strong>, the Poc Awards 2020 trophy went to Barcelona, where Bechler has lived for five years.<\/p>\n

In a new interview with GAY BLOG BR, Marcelo Bechler<\/strong> talks about coping with corona virus in Spain, the clubs positioning with diversity and a little bit of his personal life.<\/p>\n

Its popularity has grown a lot, not only in sports, but in different types of public, including the respect of the club. Here at GAY BLOG BR, your interview was one of the most accessed in 2020.<\/a> At that time, you even had about 80 thousand followers on Instagram; today it exceeds 166 thousand. What do you attribute your great engagement with the audience? Was it a surprise being chosen by the public in your category at the Poc Awards<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was very surprising, yes! Because I really don’t think I did anything too much in taking a joke. About the growth in popularity, I get messages from people saying they don’t like soccer and follow me just to see me. The comments on the photos are well divided between praise from soccer fans and men who think I’m handsome. I think it’s really cool that they see me for positive things. And I think I can only reciprocate by setting an example of tolerance and lightness for friends, family and followers.<\/em><\/p>\n

From the moment we did the interview until now, did you have any new interactions or a new interview with Piqu\u00e9?<\/strong><\/p>\n

No, because of the pandemic, our access is almost minimal. The closest was one day that I was walking down the stairs at the Camp Nou and the players coming out to warm up and he shouted \u201cHey, Marcelo!\u201d. Nothing further. He did an interview in a post-game that I was in, but my interview position was far away and he didn’t go to all the TVs.<\/em><\/p>\n
