Brazilian singer Ayres Sasaki dead at 35 after being electrocuted when he 'hugged a wet fan onstage'
Brazilian rock singer Ayres Sasaki is dead at 35 after being electrocuted onstage in the resort town of Salinópolis, Pará last weekend.
It has been claimed that he embraced a wet fan during a concert on July 13 and received a deadly electric shock, according to some reports in Brazilian media.
Other outlets in Brazil have alleged that the freak incident occurred while Ayres was playing the guitar during his performance.
Although attempts were made to resuscitate him after he collapsed, Sasaki died on the scene at the Solar Hotel in Salinópolis.
Sasaki leaves behind his wife Mariana, a nurse whom he married only 11 months ago, according to the news conglomerate Globo.

The local police in Salinópolis and the civil police of the state of Pará are investigating his exact cause of death.
Sasaki originally hailed from Belém, the capital and largest city of Pará, and in addition to his singing career he was also an architect.
He entered the music industry in 2017 and played all over Pará with his band, including a 2021 gig opening for the legacy São Paulo hardcore group CPM 22.
Last October he posted a heartwarming Instagram montage of his recent wedding to Mariana, writing in the caption: 'Eternity awaits us my love.'
Multiple Brazilian outlets, including the newspaper Correio Braziliense and the magazine Istoé, reported that the hug from the drenched fan caused his death.
However other news sources, such as the local paper Diário do Pará, have claimed that he was playing the guitar when the jolt occurred.
After his death in Salinópolis last Saturday night, a wake was held Sunday and he was interred in his hometown the following day.
The Hotel Solar issued a statement Sunday promising 'support' to Sasaki's family with regards to the 'necessary arrangements.'

'A super charismatic guy, his talent was absurd. He was the best voice and guitar player in Belém!' said his friend and fellow singer Adriano Freitas. 'A great friend, a great family man, attentive to his friends and to those who liked his work.'
Freitas recalled: 'Sasaki was known as the king of encores. Once, they asked for so many encores at a private concert that he played for 12 hours without stopping.'
Sasaki, said Freitas, 'enjoyed his music so much and making people sing with him, that I'm sure he had more fun than he worked during those 12 hours.'
Meanwhile comedian Natto Almeida, who was friends with Sasaki and performed with him onstage, remembered the late musician's 'good heart, his politeness.'
