Updates from Brazil (February 10, 2009): Queen bessie arrived in Sao Paulo today!
She is getting ready for the Carnaval with 5-hour ensaios in the Cuadras of Escola de Samba Nene de Vila Matilde (desfile February 20) and 2008 Carnaval Champions - Escola de Samba Vaivai (desfile February 21)
Bessie was "Rainha do Pantanal" for Escola Nene de Vila Matilde, one of the 3 Escolas de Samba she represented in Sao Paulo. She was a "Deusa de Agricultura" in a Japanese-inspired costume for Escola Unidos de Vila Maria. And on the final night of competition, she was stunning in white as she rode on the first float for Escola Vai Vai and helped them score a perfect 10 for their fantasia..
