Jujuvieira recounts what happened to her in the Vatican (jujuvieira_oficial /)
Network influencer JoJo Vieira claims she was unjustly expelled from the Vatican after being told she dressed in a way that did not respect the place - although she said she dressed accordingly - and vowed to give up the Catholic religion due to the disgraceful treatment of her.
JoJo, originally from Brazil, was on her way to St. Peter’s Basilica in the heart of the Holy City during a trip to Rome last January.
She left the hotel wearing a tight dress and long boots - and although she did not think there was anything blatant or daring in her attire, she claims she was banned from entering the Vatican.
Since the incident, JoJo, who has been baptized and raised in a strict Christian home and regularly attended Mass, claims she has received harsh reactions online.
"I met the lack of God in the hearts of people who call themselves Catholics in the worst way," she told the Mirror, "they found my number and I even received threats on my life. I do not identify with such religious conduct."

According to the Instagram star, who has more than 30,000 followers on the platform, the verbal attacks come mostly from the Orthodox part of the community.
As a result of what happened to her in the Vatican and the abuse that followed, she has now decided to give up her faith and explore other religions.
"I want to be who I am, to dress the way I want, sexy or not," she said, "I want to know other religions, today I identify more with spiritualism."
What do you say: rightly removed?

The Vatican has a strict dress code for both men and women, which includes covering shoulders and knees.
The official website of the place reads: "Women are not allowed to wear sleeveless shirts, crop tops or tight shirts. Shoulders should be covered, and if wearing a skirt or dress, it must cover the knees. Women are usually advised to bring a scarf and a pair of leggings during the colder months. , As well as a light jacket. "
JoJo said: "I went to the Vatican like everyone else goes to take pictures. A gentleman who worked there approached me and said the place was for prayers and that I was not properly dressed and demanded I leave, he 'threw' me out of the Vatican. I was embarrassed because there were people there "Others have heard it. I felt disrespected."
JoJo claims she was unaware of the dress code and was dressed the way she usually dresses for going out.
The model said: "I did not even know there were rules. A person with common sense would not visit the Vatican in club clothes. I was dressed in my winter clothes, everything matched. I went in comfortable clothes that I would feel good for long walks. Comfort was my only concern."

JoJo also shared her experience with her followers in an Instagram video and described it as an "unpleasant situation".
One person wrote: "It's absurd my friend."
Another shared an emoji of a shocked face.
Others have argued that it is common for people to be asked to leave due to a lack of adherence to the dress code.
One person wrote: "Well, if you're wearing deep necklines and very tight clothes, it's normal. They did not let my niece come in either, when she was wearing a miniskirt and a bare belly."
