In 2009, Wanessa became involved in LGBT causes and the fight for equal rights for all: "Every human being has the option of loving whoever he or she wants, regardless of their sexual choice. I think it's great, I do not see anything against. being against people who make love, is ridiculous. It is a posture of society that no longer fits in today's time." In 2011 Wanessa made a show at the 15th São Paulo Gay Pride Parade for an audience of 1 million people.
