To be in the spotlight means receiving significant public attention or scrutiny.

For example:

The actor was in the spotlight after the award ceremony.

The politician was in the spotlight for his recent comments.

Her charity work put her in the spotlight.

Will you go onstage and read my poem for me? I really 

hate being in the spotlight.

Tradução:

In the spoltlight significa “estar no centro das atenções”, “sob os holofotes”, “em destaque”, “na ribalta”.
