In July 2023, she announced her relationship with Chico Moedas aka Chico Veiga. Bitten by the love bug, she even released a song, Chico. But alas! Just 3 months later, in September 2023, the couple broke up.

While her personal life hasn’t been what she ideally would have preferred, she is stacking up money in her career.

Luisa Sonza’s net worth and NFL game fees

After being in the game for the last 6-7 years, she has released many songs and worked on various TV shows. Making moves in May 2022, Sony Music Brazil signed a recording contract worth about R$100 million (US$20 million) with Luisa Sonza. Her net worth as of 2024 ranges between $7-9 million. With an NFL performance which will be watched worldwide, her popularity will surely skyrocket.

While the fees for Luisa Sonza’s live performance costs between $15,000-$24,999, NFL might have paid her well above it. It will be a highlight of her career for sure. Talking about the first NFL game in Brazil, she expressed pride and said, “representing my country to the world is the greatest honor I can have as an artist.” She isn’t wrong. In fact, she can’t express her (whole) emotions in words.

Brazilians are pumped up. They are looking forward to a weekend of festivities surrounding the game in various parts of the city.
