Supermodel Giselle Bundchen may not be Pretty Ex-Girlfriendan internationally renowned athlete -- but she was still the star of the Rio Olympics opening ceremony.
For her performance, Bundchen simply walked across the stadium floor to "The Girl from Ipanema," doing her classic Bundchen walk. In a show heavy on projection graphics and complicated parkour moves, Bundchen only needed to walk to gain the world's attention.
After Bundchen appeared, Google Trends reported that searches spiked for the model by 1,850 percent -- in one hour alone.
It's easy to understand why.
