In Portugal’s digital media landscape, Fábio Lopes, better known as “Conguito“, stands out for his engaging content and his infectiously positive vibes. From his early days as a YouTuber to becoming a prominent radio host and digital presenter for The Voice Portugal, Fábio has found a niche for himself and became one of Portugal’s most beloved media personalities.
From YouTube Creator to The Voice Portugal
Born in Cascais, his journey into the spotlight began in an unexpected fashion. Originally nicknamed after a chocolate brand’s mascot due to his childhood appearance, this nickname stuck and later became his alias in the digital world. Fábio’s path into YouTube started after reconnecting with old friends from his football club days during high school. What started with casual vlogs quickly turned into a professional career in content creation, thanks to his authentic style and engaging personality.

Beside his success on YouTube, Fábio has made significant steps in radio, where he brings his upbeat energy every morning to the audience on Mega Hits FM. His role as a digital presenter for The Voice Portugal has further cemented his status in the Portuguese media landscape.
Fashion, music and a strong comeback
But his talents extend beyond just entertaining. He’s also into fashion and music, being part of the Hip Hop band “Dois Brancos & Um Preto,” working as a model and participating at the Lisbon Fashion Week. His commitment to spreading positive vibes and bringing joy to his viewers and listeners makes him a standout personality in Portugal’s digital landscapes. Even a short backlash in 2022, when he tried to build his own soccer club in Portugal, did not get him down. Fábio came back stronger from this crisis and we look forward to hear a lot more from him in the future.
