It started as a website, collecting articles by various columnists and interviews of Portuguese celebrities, mostly female, by the two TV presenters. The organization's original name was Maria Capaz (literally Mary Capable), the title of a song by rapper Capicua and a word play with the Portuguese term for tomboy, maria-rapaz (mary-boy).[1][2][3][4]
