The phrase is addressed to Gugu Liberato, one of Brazil's best-known television presenters, which is why Brazilian audiences instantly recognise the reference even without seeing the original broadcast. Online, the short shout was ripped as an MP3 and passed around soundboards, WhatsApp groups and meme pages as a standalone reaction. Its appeal is the mix of nostalgia for classic Sunday TV and pure disbelief in the voice, so it keeps resurfacing whenever a clip shows someone getting unexpectedly excited or out of control.
About this sound
Brazilian meme sound of a shocked voice shouting Que Que Isso Gugu, from a famous Jean-Claude Van Damme TV appearance, used for surprised reactions.
This is a loud, high-energy shout in Brazilian Portuguese repeating the phrase Que que isso, Gugu, delivered like someone cannot believe what they are seeing. The voice rises in disbelief and excitement over a few seconds, making the clip feel frantic and funny rather than serious. It works as an instant reaction to an unexpected dance, a wild outfit, or any moment that suddenly gets out of hand, because the exaggerated shock in the delivery does all the work before any context is needed.
