Cristiano Ronaldo Spends A Moment… With Himself

We were truly surprised to learn futbolista Cristiano Ronaldo released a coffee table book called Moments (excuse us as we suppress our gag reflex). It’s chock full of Public Relations-approved anecdotes and inspirational tidbits culled from the Portuguese star’s life. Bor-ing. We guess it was too much to ask for hooker photos to spice things up. But in its place, we got these words of wisdom.

I am not a perfectionist, but I like to feel that things are done well. More important that [sic] that, I feel an endless need to learn, to improve, to evolve, not only to please the coach and the fans, but also to feel satisfied with myself.

Whoa, you had us there ’til the end, Cristiano. We’ll never trust your modest words again. After the jump, join us as a fly on the wall during his high-roller day…

…um, cooking…

…uh, hanging out with supermodels on the beach, unsurprisingly looking more interested in himself…

…telling us mortals things we’ll never know…

… and finally, hanging out with his family. Wait, he’s human? We thought perfect specimens were bred in lab pods, like in Species. Fooled us again, Cristiano.
