The samba school São Clemente was penalized a half point during the Carnaval pageant at the Sambódromo for Viviane Castro's tapa sexo ("sex cover") being too small... Apparently 4cm is just not enough for squeamish judges... (that's 1.57 inches for you non-metric folk). They had to measure to get the final ruling! The so-called "cover" was glued on with super bonder. Ouch.
By the way, I made the edits myself, lest anyone accuse me of blogging nudity... Exposed breasts are quite normal for Carnaval and were not a factor in the judges' decision. Only the southern part...
I think the picture is quite stunning and beautiful. You can view the unedited photo here and read the story (in Portuguese) here. Photo by Antônio Lacerda/EFE.

My friends, Katherine and Theresa, from DC also paraded in the pageant with the same samba school. They were adequately covered up, by the way...

Meu deus! That "sex cover" is quite provocative! I'm not surprised that the judges reacted the way they did.
até mais...

Je vous fais mes compliments d'avoir publié les si belles photos de Viviane, en cachant ce que la pudeur recommande !
Car ainsi, les jeunes enfants et les adolescents peuvent admirer ce si beau corps, sans éprouver de gêne ! Afin de former leur goût du beau !
Bravo et continuez !
l'âge de la pudeur est oubliée depuis longtemps mon ami ...
