Beard Disses Phelps:Amanda Beard Disses Michael Phelps

“Eww! No. Come on.” “Eww, that’s so nasty! … Come on, I have really good taste.”

After being slammed by the media Beard stepped out to say sorry to Phelps:

“I never meant to say anything rude about Michael. I am 100-percent sorry for what I said. I take full responsibility for it.”
“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.”
