Chris Gayle Reprises Infamous “Don’t Blush, Baby” Line For Awkward New Condom Ad
Cricket bad boy Chris Gayle has reprised his now infamous “Don’t blush, baby” line for an odd new condom advert in India.
The cringeworthy spot for condom brand Skore has the West Indian repeating the offensive line he made to Aussie journalist, Mel McLaughlin, after a Big Bash game in January last year.
Gayle was later fined $10,000 for the comment and many called for him to be banned from any further local tournaments.
Check out Gayle’s prophylactic spot below:
Gayle has continued to make light of the incident despite the fines and reprimands including posting a video to social media telling on its 12-month anniversary telling everyone to”lighten the ph— up”.
