A stunning Swedish social media influencer said meeting Cristiano Ronaldo was the most ‘uncomfortable’ encounter she’d ever had with a celebrity.
Sanne Josefson was conducting an interview at Expressen’s television studio when she opened up about the encounter in Los Angeles. The Swede recalled the Manchester United legend’s manager found her friend attractive – so they invited to them for drinks.
“I think his manager had a bit of a crush on my friend, so they invited us to a drink at the Beverly Hills Hotel,” she remembered. “We didn’t have a great conversation…”

Sanne joked the pair didn’t have much to talk about – and that the Portuguese superstar, now 39, insisted on only drinking water so he could keep his six pack. She said: “We were going to order something to drink and then he said I want water. I want to keep my six pack. Then I thought we don’t have much to talk about.”
And then asked if they shared a photo, she joked: “No I didn’t! I went out to the pub later!”

Ronaldo – currently competing at Euro 2024 – is known for his healthy lifestyle and he once even snubbed a bottle of Coca Cola during an interview.
The Portugal captain moved the cola bottles as he sat down to speak to the media during a Euro 2020 press conference – he then held up a bottle of water and shouted in Portuguese: “Agua!”
As result of the stunt, Coca-Cola’s share price dropped 1.6 per cent almost immediately from $56.10 to $55.22 (£39.76 to £39.14). The market value of the company fell from $242bn to $238bn – a decrease of $4bn (£2.8bn).
