Sir Rod Stewart once again stole the show with his infectious energy and witty remarks during a pre-match interview for Celtic's Champions League clash against Bayern Munich. The rock legend entertained viewers with his hilarious interactions with the CBS panel, leaving them in stitches.
Sir Rod Stewart entertained viewers once again with his lively personality during a pre-match interview ahead of Celtic 's Champions League clash against Bayern Munich on February 12th. The iconic singer and die-hard Celtic supporter, sporting a striking fur-trimmed coat, joined CBS hosts Kate Scott, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards for a pre-game chat. It wasn't long before his characteristic wit had the panel in stitches.
Positioned pitch-side alongside former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel, whose son Kasper was set to start in goal for Celtic, Sir Rod engaged in playful banter with the hosts. He hilariously instructed the stadium announcers to 'shut up' so he could speak, and in a moment of endearing confusion, misidentified Micah Richards as 'Big Knees' before settling on 'Micah Thing'. These antics, coupled with his lighthearted ribbing of Peter Schmeichel, who he mistakenly referred to as 'Gordon Banks', had the entire team roaring with laughter.The clip quickly went viral on social media platforms like 'X', solidifying Sir Rod's reputation for delivering memorable and chaotic television moments. This latest appearance recalled his hilarious 2017 Scottish Cup draw appearance, where he charmed viewers with his infectious enthusiasm. Throughout the interview, the 80-year-old 'Young Turks' singer passionately expressed his love for Celtic, describing it as a club 'like no other' and praising his fellow supporters as 'wonderful'. He reminded the CBS crew of Celtic's historic victories against European giants like AC Milan, Barcelona, and Manchester United at Parkhead, suggesting that with a bit of luck and no slip-ups, they might just pull off another stunning upset against Bayern Munich.Despite Sir Rod's optimism, Celtic ultimately fell to a 2-1 defeat against Bayern Munich, despite a late rally. The singer, while disappointed with the result, acknowledged that he wouldn't be able to attend the second leg in Munich due to a tour commitment in Atlantic City. However, he confirmed that his son Alastair would be making the trip. The interview concluded with a delightful impromptu duet of 'Maggie May' with a giddy Jamie Carragher, who revealed a prior encounter with Sir Rod and his son at a charity event. Carragher shared an endearing anecdote about his mother being Sir Rod's biggest fan, and how she proudly displayed a framed picture of him in a Celtic jersey instead of a picture of her son in his Liverpool kit. It's safe to assume Sir Rod would have ended his match day celebrating with a pint or two at his favorite Glasgow bar, Murphy's in the Merchant City, a place he's known to frequent on match days, even occasionally pouring his own drinks behind the bar.
