Hunky Rodgers scores big at the Superbowl!
That was quite an interview with Aaron Rodgers last night on Letterman.
When the strapping quarterback stepped out from behind the curtain there was deafening thunderous applause from ecstatic fans on-hand in the bleachers.
Dave thanked the Packer's MVP (Most Valuable Player) for stopping by - at which point - the handsome athlete sheepishly fessed up that he often watched the Late Show.
After a bit of gushing (unusual for the toothy talk-show host) Letterman dove in and struck up a pretty insightful dialogue with the gridiron hero.
After noting Rodger's humble beginnings (he was attending a community college when he caught the eye of a talent scout) Dave put a probing question to the seasoned pro about his physique (after he confided he was a spindly 6' 2 player - weighing in at 190 lbs. - once overlooked by the big leagues).
How much are you packing now," Dave quizzed.
Rodgers hesitated - a bit embarrassed about the focus on all the pointed body-talk? - then blurted out proudly that he now weighed in at 230 lbs of beefy muscle.
A roar of approval rippled beyond the footlights at the Ed Sullivan Theatre.
Actually, when it came to tooting his horn, the handsome athlete was a bit slow on-the-uptake.
I expect that it's because he's a seasoned pro with a down-to-earth attitude.
According to Rodgers, it was confidence - and not ego - that fueled the ball-player's drive on to victory and the Super Bowl Championship this past Sunday in Texas.
"Yeah, the adrenalin was high at first. Then, I settled in, and it was just a regular game," Rodgers shrugged in so many words.
At this juncture - Letterman whipped out the dazzling belt Rodgers earned at the action-packed game for his prowess at the stadium - one which proved to be a ratings bonanza for the network (11 million viewers tuned in).
As Rodger's started to reach for the spinning centrepiece, Letterman teased him a tad.
"You like playing with that thing, don't 'ya?"
A broad smile crossed Rodger's face.
Oh boy, what a cutie!
"Yes. Fans like this stuff. You've got to give 'em what they want."
In addition to the belt, the accolades, and new product endorsements (did you catch him promoting Disneyland this morning on Channel 4?) the hunky stud also nabbed a spanking new red Camaro for his agile efforts on the field.
I expect he'll be appearing on the cover of PEOPLE, TIME - and, who knows - maybe even Details or GQ?
Can Calvin Klein or Giorgio Armani be far behind?
