Now this is not a referee as we know them in the UK. She is Ana Paula Oliveira who is a bit of a controversial ref and even has her own official website. She looks quite pleasant too as you can see from the Ana Paula Oliveira photos.
The Playboy shoot has stirred up things for Ana Paula Oliviera as women referees aren't exactly common within the male dominated Brazilian football culture.
The chairman of the Refereeing Commission, Edson Rezende, is quoted, however, of saying, "The decision taken by assistant referee Ana Paula de Oliveira of having photos taken for a magazine is personal and, in principle, the Refereeing Commission will not adopt any particular attitude." A bit of a cop out statement.
After appearing nude in Playboy could she continue with refereeing? Imagine the chants from the crowd after having seen her private bits and pieces. I remember the football crowd chants, in England, about Victoria Beckham - too rude to print here. But the answer is, "Yes she does!"
Ana Paula Oliveira is 29 but was recently withdrawn from the list of referees in the Brazilian Championship, after disallowing a legitimate goal in the semi-finals of the Brazilian Cup. However she still 'performs' in state games.
