CHECKOUT Brazil's Five Day Dance Festival Ladies Go Wild Clotheless Wearing Just Costumes

Brazilians ignore Mr ZIKA VIRUS as they go ahead to celebrate Rio's five-day festival of dancing, bared flesh and wild costumes but kissing is a 'NO NO' as people are conscious of the zika virus epidermic in the country.
Mayor Eduardo Paes handed a big golden key to the carnival's ceremonial King Momo, who promised a spectacular show.
'With great happiness, brotherly love and peace, I declare the best carnival on Earth open - our carnival in the marvelous city,' the dancing king, who is elected ahead of the festivities, said on Friday.
The annual mega-bash famed for lavish and skimpily dressed samba parades and all-night street dancing is expected to attract as many as five million people.

 SEE PICS:

Regal delight: The floats kept on coming at the carnival which went ahead despite the current Zika virus scare which is gripping Brazil 

Hundreds of dancers marched through the streets Performers had their moment in the spotlight
This year's carnival across Brazil starts under the cloud of the mosquito-transmitted Zika virus The virus normally provokes few ill effects, but is blamed for an outbreak of serious birth defects in babies born to mothers infected while pregnant
Like the rest of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro is struggling with deep recession The economic hurt has also been extended to the carnival industry
Dancers delight on the street Intriguing performers captivate the audience
Imaginative costumes: The carnival is continuing over the weekend across Brazil as visitors from across the globe arrive to join in the fun
