In this case the author is talking about the person the article is about. It is relevant that the operatic Brünnhilde is more an object of ridicule, in contrast to the queen on which she's based.

I haven't seen Der Ring des Nibelungen yet - does the opera really ridicule Brünnhilde, as this article implies?

  I don't know that the opera does. The expression "it's not over until the fat lady sings" is what portrays Brünnhilde as ridiculous.

    How does that expression ridicule Brünnhilde?
