Ronaldo: I Can't Say Who's More Handsome Between Beckham and Me, But I'm Certain I'm Flawless

onight, the second part of Piers Morgan’s exclusive interview with Cristiano Ronaldo was released, focusing on Ronaldo’s appearance—

When you went to the US for the World Cup, David Beckham was the biggest star, just like Messi is now. But Beckham was the one who went to America and became a global superstar. You played with Beckham. You’re often compared to him, especially in terms of looks. I won’t compare your football skills because, in my opinion, he’s not on the same level as you as a footballer. But do you think you’re more handsome than David Beckham?

Depends.

Are you more handsome?

Depends. Because for me, appearance isn’t just about the face.

It’s a whole package. If you swapped me with someone else—imagine, Cristiano. Yes, not Cristiano. An ordinary guy in red swim trunks drinking coconut water on Copacabana Beach. Do you think I’d get noticed?

No, you’d be very popular.

Okay. So…

You’d be more popular than me. I can say that for sure. You’d be more popular than me. I’ve drunk coconut water there. No one noticed me. So yes, I’m certain.

I’m joking. You don’t matter. It depends on people’s perspective, but that’s okay. You look great. I look great too. We both look great. So…

Come on—you and Beckham. You walk along Copacabana Beach for 10 minutes. Who gets more attention?

Not because of fame?

Not because of fame—just because of physique.

100% me.

I knew it. I know you. Come on!

I agree with you.

You agree?

I just wanted to… just wanted to tease you.

You. Thank you. Yeah. I didn’t need that. But imagine—let’s imagine.

No one would look at Beckham.

Come on. Come on. He knows it. He knows it. He has a handsome face. Yeah. And… the face. The rest… the rest is normal. Like, really normal. I’m not normal. I’m flawless.

[Laughter] Also, he has too many tattoos, doesn’t he? Don’t you think?

I don’t know.

Do you think he should get surgery?

Tattoos. I think he’s covered in tattoos. Tattoos. Really covered.

Hmm. But you look good. He… he… he… he… I like him.

He’s a nice guy. I like him. I like him.
