Biography[edit]

Maria João was born in Benavente, Santarém District. She holds a degree in Communication Sciences from the Independent University of Lisbon. Maria took an English course in England in 1993, a casting and video and dummy course at Visual LX in 1994 and a theater, film and television course in New York City in the year 2000. She signed an exclusive contract with The Portuguese television station, TVI.

Bastos is ambassador of the Jaguar car brand, and representative of the Italian brand Furla, in Portugal. Her character "Liliane Marise", a pimba music singer, in the novel Destinos Cruzados, was so remarkable that it released a CD that reached first place in the Portuguese music charts. Incarnating this same personage, she made a concert in MEO Arena, in Lisbon, in October 2013, and another in Guimarães shortly after. In 2015 she was juror of the Ídolos program at SIC.
