Amanda Beard on Dating Michael Phelps : ‘Eww, That's Nasty’
Olympic swimmer and model Amanda Beard says she is not dating Michael Phelps.
“Eww! No. Come on...” . Beard said when asked about the rumored romance during a phone interview with Tucson’s Johnjay and Rich radio show. She went on to say, “Eww, that’s nasty....Come on, I have really good taste.”
Now Beard is catching flak for her flippancy, she has decided to apologise. In an apology she says, "I never meant to say anything rude about Michael. I am 100-percent sorry for what I said. I take full responsibility for it."
She adds, "When we are sitting in the stands, we are very grateful that Michael swims for the U.S. It's cool to be a part of the team on which Michael won eight gold medals. We know each other and Michael is like my little brother. He jokes around me all the time and it's all good-natured. But obviously people who don't know me can take it the wrong way."
