Alice Regina Alves Cavalcante[2] (16 November 1961 – 2 August 2021), better known as Alicinha Cavalcanti, was a Brazilian event promoter.[3]
Born in São José do Rio Preto, a municipality of São Paulo to parents from Ceará,[2] Cavalcanti was considered one of the best known promoters in Brazil. In her mailing, there were more than 17,000 names of famous people.[4] She began her career at the age of 20 in 1983, at the "Gallery", sponsored by the owner of the house, José Victor Oliva.[4][5]
Passionate about extreme leisure activities and sports such as jiu-jitsu, Cavalcanti had suffered several accidents that necessitated four pins in her knee, eleven screws and a plate in her leg.[4]
In 2015, Cavalcanti was diagnosed with primary progressive aphasia.[1] In 2017, she was also diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a degenerative and incurable disease.[1] She died at the Albert Einstein Israelite Hospital in São Paulo on 2 August 2021 at age 59 as a result of primary progressive aphasia.[1][6][7][8]
