Juca Chaves (born Jurandyr Czaczkes; 22 October 1938 – 25 March 2023) was a Brazilian comedian, singer and writer well known for his irreverence.

Chaves was a critic of the Brazilian military regime, of the mainstream press, and of the recording industry itself.

He became an exile in Portugal in the early 1970s, during the presidency of Emílio Garrastazu Médici, but when his satires of the fascist regime then in power began to gain popularity on television and radio, he felt compelled to move to Italy.

In 2006, Chaves launched his candidacy for senator in Bahia as a member of the Christian Social Democratic Party,[5] ending in 4th place, with 19,603 votes (0.35% of the total).
