Carnival queen will have Obama painted on her body
SAO PAULO -- The Carnival beauty famed for proving it's possible to get too naked for Brazil's samba parades is looking for the spotlight again - by painting her body with an image of President Barack Obama.

Viviane Castro last year made headlines by appearing as a samba school drum queen while wearing nothing but a tape 4 centimeters (1.6 inches) wide - managing to violate a little-enforced nudity rule and drawing a penalty for her group.

Castro, 26, said she will wear slightly more on Friday - but will still have plenty of room to have Obama's image placed somewhere on her body for all to see.

The exact location won't be revealed until Sao Paulo samba school X-9 Paulistana parades Friday night, said spokeswoman Ana Neiva.

2. I did a google image search of her name...
...with 'moderate safe search' enabled, BTW.

I sure didn't see any 1.6" wide tape anywhere. And trust me, I looked.
