What happens

Xuxa Hits was a Brazilian music television hit parade, hosted by Xuxa Meneghel at TV Globo, which started on 8 January and ended on 16 April 1995. In fact, it was a Sunday replay of the musical block of Xuxa Park, in the first season of 1994, when the scenario was simple to the central title "Xuxa Park Hits". Until the end of these reruns, on April 29 of the same year, the program is again transformed into a painting of Xuxa Park. What was just a block of Xuxa Park, became a immediate success as an independent program, in a similar way as the BBC's Top of the Pops, Xuxa received contemporary artists, disc jockey and singers, featuring music videos. Due to the change of members, the Paquitas group also changed their costumes (from mine workers during the 1994 season to schoolgirls in 1995). Xuxa also won the help of the "You Can Dance", also gained the support of the male dance group "You Can Dance" which replaced the "Paquitos" that were dissolved at the end of the Xou da Xuxa in 1992. This group was also part of the team at the time of the dance, during this short season, Xuxa wore a themed look for each show, ranging from Napoleon to Geisha, and her entrances at the beginning of the show matched her costume.The separate program served as a test for the presenter to analyze the possibilities of presenting a program on Sunday afternoons and would last only three months as a rerun. However, the audience would be higher than that of the full program on Saturday.And in April 1997 it was adapted and received the name of Planeta Xuxa, a Xou da Xuxa version for the grounded.The show gained high popularity immediately and would have its schedule changed from Saturday afternoon to Sunday given the positive impact that in a short time made it a local television classic.
