Mrs. Tom Brady? That’s Gisele Bündchen to the rest of the world
Many of our northern neighbors were downright beside themselves Friday when Peter Mansbridge of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation called supermodel Gisele Bündchen “Mrs. Tom Brady” during the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Brazil on Friday.
The “gaffe” happened as Bündchen, who is a Brazilian, walked out to the song “The Girl From Ipanema.”

Wow @CBC did you introduce the world’s most famous model as Mrs. Tom Brady? Did I wake up in 1940? Her name is #Gisele #OpeningCeremony

Loving the @CBCOlympics coverage, thank you. BUT Mrs. Tom Brady? C’mon, @giseleofficial deserves better.

“isn’t that Mrs. Tom Brady?” wtf @CBCOlympics. Gisele is only the highest paid model ever. Her net worth is double his. So it’s Mr. Bunchen.

It’s a good thing he didn’t call her something really offensive, like beautiful.
