After that, several other dancers were named after fruits. In fact, each fruit was related to a part of these women’s bodies.
In Ellen’s case, the name Strawberry Shortcake is due to her pointy breasts.. At that time, Ellen was one of the dancers for MC Créu, which was a huge success at the time.
In addition to being a dancer, Mulher Strawberry Shortcake also tried her hand at a singing career. She invested in her musical talent between 2009 and 2012, but did not pursue this fieldas she abandoned her career when she married Naldo Benny in 2013.
Before the fame
Before becoming known throughout the country as Strawberry Shortcake Woman, Ellen Cardoso did other less recognized work.
One of them was as a dancer on the Best of Brazil program, back in 2007. Another lesser-known work of the artist was as a dancer in the pagode group Swing Baratinha between 2004 and 2006.

Controversies involving Ellen Cardoso
Recently, Ellen Cardoso’s husband, Naldo Benny, was involved in a controversy also involving his wife’s name. A woman revealed messages from the artist to invite him for a three-way date with him and his wife, the Strawberry Shortcake Woman.
In the messages released by the woman, the singer makes his interest in a threesome very clear: “Wow, you are being very mean. I’m feeling sad for you, very sad. I didn’t think you would refuse. I’ll call you, if you have a little affection for me, we’ll talk. You don’t need to be bothered like that. I asked if you are single. I’m going to be very specific, because I wouldn’t have a problem with my wife. She knows, so we would go out for a drink, I don’t know if you drink. It would be nice, between the three of us.”
The girl refused the invitation, but the singer continued to insist: “So let’s just go with the two of us, okay? Let’s go out and get to know each other then. Even if I go with her (Ellen), there’s no problem. Or I’ll go alone.”
After the messages were released, the couple Naldo and Ellen spoke out about what happened. “Buff of the moment! We really like dating. There was no infidelity. We are very faithful. We are very close partners. I made the invitation with the greatest education, with the greatest humility. She could have said no”said Naldo in Stories.
And Ellen added: “She wanted an audience, she wanted likes, likes”stating that the couple enjoys this kind of thing.
Separation and troubled marriage
And speaking of the controversy involving Ellen Cardoso and her husband Naldo Benny, their marriage is quite troubled, with many ups and downs.
Indeed, At the end of 2017, the couple went through a very controversial separation, which even involved allegations of aggression. Strawberry Shortcake Woman even denounced her husband, claiming to have been beaten by him. The whole case was very controversial.
It all happened because Naldo wouldn’t have liked a comment from a man on one of his wife’s photos and that’s why he wanted to check the woman’s direct messages. Ellen, in turn, refused to give her account password to her husband, which is why he broke her cell phone and attacked her. According to the complaint, Strawberry Shortcake Woman was hit with a bottle and punched a lot.
He was arrested, but was released on bail. Despite what happened, the couple remains together to this day.
