Gary Lineker has denied having sexual relations with the crisps that he promotes.
The former Everton, Tottenham Hotpsur and England striker turned football, pundit was responding to erroneous claims made on a flag seen at the Glastonbury Festival that he “shags crisps”.
Clearly, something rattled the public face of Walkers Crisps to issue such a denial. Speaking to OK! Magazine (via NME), Lineker said: “There was a big banner at Glastonbury once saying, ‘Gary Lineker shags crisps’,” he said. “But I honestly don’t.”
We’re glad that he’s cleared that one up, because, y’know, a grown man and a bag of crisps… it doesn’t really bear thinking about, does it?
He then added: “I think they’d just crumble anyway!”
What a guy! What a sense of humour!
