In the same year she appeared in the film Eu Odeio o Orkut.[4]
Luana says that she agreed to return the video because it was an invitation by her friend Wolf Maya, who says she is much admired and who claims to have an enormous affection. The text is signed by Antônio Calmon, who also wrote the miniseries Sex Appeal, which catapulted to fame. The former model also said that the novel does not intend to anytime soon.[5]
