* from Taubaté
Expression used here and there by Young People
Something "from Taubaté" is something fake. The expression became popular after a woman, who became famous for being pregnant with quadruplets and giving lots of interviews to famous TV hosts asking for donations, was discovered to be a fraud. She wore a fake pregnant belly, and not even her husband knew that it was a lie.
