The 27-point figure is a Greater São Paulo measurement—not an official national rating.
- Reported rating
- 27 Ibope points
- Greater São Paulo conversion
- ≈ 60,000 households per point
- Measured-market result

* For national context, contemporary PNT values were applied directionally to the 27-point rating. They imply approximately 15.4–16.4 million viewers, rounded outward to 15–17 million. This is an illustrative historical estimate—not a reported nationwide audience figure. No comparative registry of televised Salsa-DJ audiences exists.
