The Rio Farce, Day -5: You're going to do WHAT at the Opening Ceremony?

Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bündchen (Mrs. Tom Brady) will be in the Opening Ceremony.

It's what they're probably going to do with her that is raising a lot of eyebrows, according to Deadspin.

Here, from the Timothy Burke report, is a Google translation of comments from Brazil regarding the Opening Ceremony, from a dress rehearsal held Sunday:

"Another curiosity was on account of a passage where Gisele Bündchen, parading to the sound of “The Girl from Ipanema”, will be assailed by an actor. In the end, however, the message of this scene will be peace.
[...]Still in the first hour reserved for the performing arts, the flight of a replica of the plane 14 Bis draw the attention of all. Soon after, the course is free for a parade of more than 100 meters from top international Gisele Bündchen. At this time, there will be a simulation of assault and even persecution."

So, if we are to get this straight:  After a 100 meter walk from Gisele, she will be simulatedly assaulted and persecuted in the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games, in which billions are expected to watch!!

Needless to say, some aren't happy about it, including Brazilian (I assume) sports law/journalism student Fernanda Karine:

Simulação de assalto a Gisele Bündchen na Abertura das Olimpíadas. Não entendi. Oi? Alô, Brasil? É sério mesmo?

Translated with Google Translate:

"Assault simulation Gisele Bundchen at the opening of the Olympics. I did not understand. Hi? Hello, Brazil? Really it?"

As in:

"REALLY, Brazil??  HELLO!!  I don't understand this.  You are going to simulate the assault of Gisele Bündchen at the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games!!!"
