Not a sex symbol: Rino Gattuso from Milan says "I'm not blind"

In an interview with weekly magazine, Grazia, Italian footballer Rino Gattuso has said that he doesn’t consider himself an Italian sex symbol, even though a recent survey reveals that Italian women think he is.
The interview with Gattuso has him quoted as saying: “I’m embarrassed to be considered a sex symbol.

I’m not a vain type, I don’t take care of my ‘look’.
Many guys do their eyebrows, like women.
I don’t put cream on my face, I bite my fingernails, I don’t do anything to change my look.
I’m rough.

”At this point, with Beckham fever gripping Italy, a comparison must be made with Gattuso’s new team mate.
In responding to the question as to whether he is anti-Beckham, Gattuso says:“Now that he’s playing here, I look at him and I think he’s a good looking guy.

I look at Nesta and think he’s a good looking guy.
And Maldini too.
Then I look at myself in the mirror and I certainly don’t think ‘hey, what a good looking guy’.

I’m not blind.
Gattuso may not be a sex symbol, but he’s definitely a nice guy! We’ll leave this one up to the ladies.
