I removed the tags linking Maria Bethânia to "Roman Catholic entertainers" (et. al.) as she believes in the Afro-Brazilian candomblé religion and is not a practicing Catholic. Candomblé deities and spirits figure in her music and videos. Like many Brazilians, her religious beliefs are highly syncretic. - macongo, 12/31/06, USA/EUA
