Cristiano Ronaldo pays someone to brush his wax dummy’s hair

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the living embodiment of Adonis. The sooner we all admit that, accept it and move on, the better. That said, his latest move might be a little closer to Vanity Smurf. Eurosport learned that Ronaldo sends his personal stylist to a museum in Portugal once a month. Their job: Brush a wax figure’s hair.

“Cristiano told us to be sure his figure was perfect,” Gonzalo Presa told Cadena Ser Catalunya. “He sent his own hairstylist to brush his figure once a month. Cristiano’s hair is natural. It is not a wig and it comes from India.”

Sending a stylist to make sure your wax figure is perfect is about a nine on the narcissist scale. Revealing that you got real human hair from India to make the thing? That’s horrifying.
