Mia Horton The first-ever season of The Circle Brazil is heating up as we enter the second week of episodes. Already, four players have been blocked and things don’t seem to be settling down on the drama-front.
The second instalment of episodes aired on Wednesday, March 18th with the final episodes coming on Wednesday, March 25th. This is when The Circle Brazil will reveal its most popular player and find out who takes home that R$300,000 (US $67,000) prize.
One of the most popular players both on and off screen is JP. So, we thought it best to get to know the firefighter better before he sails towards the final.

JP on The Circle Brazil
JP is pretty much playing as himself on The Circle Brazil, except he’s aged down three years. His fellow players believe that JP is 28 years old rather than 30.
Episode 6 saw JP land the role of Circle Influencer for the first time, landing top place out of all the players. JP’s performance has only gone from strength to strength winning the challenge in episode 7. This was quite the transformation as the other players thought JP was initially a catfish.
But fans of The Circle Brazil have not been entirely supportive of JP, with many thinking the Influencer title has given him a power trip!
