Brazilian supermodels to join NBC Olympics’ coverage from Rio

Ryan Seacrest will host NBC’s late night coverage of the Rio Games, and he’ll be joined by Brazilian supermodels and actresses Alessandra Ambrosio and Adriana Lima, it was announced Tuesday.

The models will present features and offer commentary on their native Brazil for the late night broadcast, which will take place at NBC Olympics’ Copacabana Beach studio. They will also contribute to the coverage of the Olympics across NBC’s other networks and platforms.

“Adriana and Alessandra are the perfect ambassadors to guide viewers through the celebrations taking place outside of the competition, showcasing the off the field experience for Olympic fans,” said Jim Bell, Executive Producer, NBC Olympics.
