Alessandra Maestrini (born 17 May 1977) is a Brazilian actress and singer-songwriter.
Alessandra was born in Sorocaba, Brazil, the daughter of Noêmia and Emílio Maestrini. Alessandra liked early music, literature and art in general. As a girl, she used to create scenes, write, sing, dance, draw and direct her friends.
Already living in Rio de Janeiro, she took a vacation course with Cláudia Jimenez and at age 11 she went to the Tablado. She began to study singing at the age of 15. A year later she performed with the Company of Daniel Herz and Suzanna Krueger. At the age of seventeen she won a theater and music scholarship to study at the University of Evansville, in Indiana, United States.
Returning to Brazil, she entered the cast of the award-winning musical "As Malvadas" by Charles Möeller and Cláudio Botelho. From then on she did not stop anymore, alternating works between theater, television and cinema.
In 2014, Alessandra declared herself to be bisexual in an interview to the magazine Caras.[1]
