First there’s the swimsuit model Dallys Ferreira who has offered to “make love to each member of the Paraguay World Cup team” if they lift the trophy and now there’s the lingerie model Larissa Riquelme who has just further ignited this year’s football summer by pledging to run naked through the streets if her nation wins the World Cup!
Are you rooting for Paraguay now?
The gorgeous football fanatic is not the first person to promise to streak in the event of a World Cup win. Argentina’s coach Diego Maradona was the first prominent person to issue such a guarantee, and his team has also made the quarterfinals.

Swimsuit model Dallys Ferreira has offered to “make love to each member of the Paraguay World Cup team” if they lift the trophy, adding, “The players know my pledge still stands. Women from my country are ardent, and to be honest, I’m more ardent than most. I take no notice of societal norms.”
巴拉圭首役1比1逼和上屆德國世足賽冠軍義大利隊,讓巴拉圭士氣大盛。巴國女模Dallys Ferreira揚言,「如果巴拉圭能奪得世界盃冠軍,我願意徹夜與所有球員做愛。」她接著說:「球員都很清楚我說到做到,巴拉圭女性可是很狂野的,老實說,我才顧不了社會規範。」

Go Paraguay!

The new 458 Italia is the successor to the immensely popular F430 sports car.
It signals a massive leap forward from the best-selling F430, thanks to technology from Formula 1 racing. The cab- forward shape, with long sloping flanks and triple exhaust pipes, was fashioned by aerodynamics rather than style. Special venting directs air through and around the car.
The 458 transports you to 60 mph in some 3.2 hair-burning seconds (mama mia!).
How can this be? For one, maximum engine power is achieved at a boggling 9,000 revolutions per minute. Most cars redline at less than 7,000 rpm, so that’s the equivalent of the Dow Jones suddenly shooting to 18,000 — it’s just not supposed to happen.
The driver can dial in the level of Jekyll versus Hyde with a five-mode system on the steering wheel, called the manettino. Choose from quiet boulevard cruising to general sport mode all the way up to Felipe Massa master.
Steering is sharper than any other car out there; most turns are made with a wiggle. Even hairpin corners are achieved barely moving your hands.
All of the controls, including lights and blinkers, are now found on the steering wheel itself, so you never have to take your hands off.
The Ferrari 458 Italia at a Glance
- Engine: 4.5-liter V-8 with 562 horsepower and 398 pound- feet of torque
- Transmission: 7-speed double-clutch automated manual with paddle shifters
- Speed: 0 to 60 mph in about 3.2 seconds
- Gas mileage per gallon: 15 combined city and highway
