Stunning singer Anitta looked terrified as her private jet hit turbulence over Brazil.

Footage filmed by her pal David Brazil shows how the superstar winced in discomfort as the small plane shook violently.

David – a presenter and actor – posted the clip to his 8.9 million Instagram followers on 27th December.

He filmed himself chuckling at his pal’s plight during the bumpy red-eye flight the previous night.

He captioned the clip, which, at the time of writing, had been viewed 1.2 million times: “Screaming won’t help.”

As he recorded, he could be heard joking as his pal clasped his hand tightly: “Fear not, I’m with you! Don’t squeeze me, it hurts!”

Meanwhile, Anitta could be seen closing her eyes and praying: “My God in heaven!”

Despite the choppy conditions, the jet later touched down without hitch, with David posting from the tarmac writing: “It was so funny.”

Anitta, 29, is one of Brazil’s best-known musical artists.

The Rio-born star, whose birth name is Larissa de Macedo Machado, was recently nominated for her first Grammy Award.

She is no stranger to the limelight, having hit headlines this year for launching her own perfume for vaginas and a leaked video of her getting her anus tattooed.
