"I'm not normal, I'm perfect." Cristiano Ronaldo said he's more handsome than David Beckham.

Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo admitted that he considers himself more handsome than David Beckham.

"For me, looks aren't just about the face. Looks are everything. Imagine me, but not as Cristiano, but as a regular guy. In red swimming trunks at the Copacabana. You think I won't have a chance? No one will look at Beckham," the 40-year-old Ronaldo said in an interview with host Piers Morgan.

He also added that the only thing that stands out about Beckham is his face: "He knows that. The rest is just normal. I'm not normal, I'm perfect."

The footballer also noted that he is more popular than current US President Donald Trump: "Of course, I'm more popular. I think they even know me somewhere up there in heaven. There's no more popular person in the world than me." He later added that it was just a joke, but "every joke has a grain of truth."

Cristiano Ronaldo previously became the first footballer to become a billionaire. His net worth is currently estimated at $1.4 billion. Furthermore, Ronaldo remains the most valuable Instagram influencer*, with over 650 million followers and a single sponsored post costing over $3 million.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a striker and captain of Al-Nassr. He is a European champion, a five-time Champions League winner, and one of the best players in football history. He became the first footballer to win the English, Spanish, and Italian championships, and the first European to score over 100 goals for his national team.

Beckham, 50, owns a stake in Inter Miami, where Lionel Messi currently plays. During his career, he played for Manchester United, Real Madrid, Milan, Los Angeles Galaxy, and Paris Saint-Germain. Beckham won the English Premier League six times, the FA Cup twice, and the Champions League once. He was recently officially knighted by King Charles III of Great Britain.
